==Amateur Career==
“I didn’t have much in the way of amateur fights, only about nine and I won four or five. I hated the amateurs, it wasn’t for me at all. I’ve always had the come forward, bobbing and weaving, fighting style and it didn’t work for me back then. I think it was probably better for me that I didn’t have much of an amateur style and, from the beginning, I only really sparred with professional fighters. Not being too involved with amateurs helped me in the long run.” [https://www.frankwarren.com/the-big-interview-darryll-williams/]

*In 2012, Chisora was suspended and fined by the [[WBC]] for slapping [[Vitali Klitschko]] at the weigh-in for their bout and by the [[BBBofC]] for a brawl with [[David Haye]] which occurred during the post-fight interview for his bout with Vitali.
*On November 10th, 2010 it was announced that Chisora had been given a suspended sentence after being found guilty of submitting his former girlfriend to a "humiliating" assault. He was given a 12-week prison sentence suspended for two years at City of Westminster magistrates' court relating to the attack in May. The court was told that Chisora, who has previous convictions for assault, attacked after finding text messages from another man on his then girlfriend's phone.
