No way Whyte won that fight. Another fight where matchroom fighter wins undeserved.

Great fight I had chisora winning by a round but it was close

He wasn't robbed. He gave rounds away through being exhausted after nearly getting Whyte out of there. It was very close.

Not again exaggeration close fight completely.

No robbery. Robberies never occur for evenly-contested bouts.

Chisora lost against a meaningful opponent? Stop the presses!!

Me too... He wasn't robbed. It was a very 1 point close fight, it can happen to either side.

The truth is that it was a spectacle of a fight with 2 warriors never giving up and giving their hearts to win.

This is what we want to see. It not about the result it's about the fight and it was great.

I agree

No robbery here . 2 evenly matched fighters giving great entertainment .

People have got to stop calling close fights robberies.

Agreed, unfortunately it is ignorance and lack of knowledge, if some people search how some things in boxings works the complains and/or QQ's would be less.

I went tonight and had Chisora winning by 7, hard to call it accurately when you're there though.

Had a good laugh at the casuals booing Chisora until he was getting on top of Whyte

I had Chisora winning by 2.

I know this is a good recommendation for all. It will be clear to many scoring.
Irritates me that every tight fight immediately must be some robbery.
If I had a point advantage for some know that it can often be reversed in the judges.Close fights everything is possible then.!

There's an immediate post-fight interview on the iFL TV Youtube channel where Dillian Whyte maintains that Chisora only won "two or three rounds" at most.

It was very close, so of course it goes to Hearn's fighter.

A bigger problem was every round after Chisora hurt Whyte he basically took it off due to the amount of energy he expended in the previous. Had he been able to keep up the kind of intensity he showed several times he'd have stopped Whyte and not given the judges a chance to decide the fight.

Only watched it live but felt Chisora won 7 rounds pretty clear. Shouldn't Whyte have been counted round 12? Ropes kept him up.

I thought the Split Decision in Whyte's favor was perfectly reasonable, I didn't score every round, but it seemed like a fight that could go either way, and I had Whyte winning as many rounds as Chisora with what I saw.

This.

sure it was a robbery. they simpel wanted to let the younger boxer to win, to give him more future opportunites, chisora at the end.

It was a close fight (I scored it a draw), so I knew when the final bell rang who they would give it to.

It is becoming tiresome.
