Remember: this wasn't just a fightβit was unfinished business.
The first fight between Dillian Whyte and Derek Chisora was an all-out war. Twelve brutal rounds, nonstop action, controversy, and a razor-close decision that left Chisora furious and demanding a rematch.
For two years, the bad blood simmered.
Then they met again.
The rematch somehow became even more heated. Round after round, both men traded punches, refusing to back down. Chisora kept marching forward. Whyte kept firing back.
Then in Round 11, after nearly 30 minutes of war between the two fights, Whyte landed a left hook so perfect that it instantly ended one of boxing's greatest modern rivalries. #boxing
A brutal ending to a legendary heavyweight story.

Itauma vs Hrgovic announced for August 29 on DAZN will be all one way traffic, & it will end early, the speed & accuracy of Moses Itauma will be on full display & very apparent to all watching this great young budding super star Heavyweight. Will become the UK face of Boxing!
Or maybe one of the fighters involved, who has recently moved to the Isle of Man, will get significant tax relief by the fight not happening in the UK.
Clark County prosecutors have filed felony charges against Floyd Mayweather after he allegedly wrote a $200,000 check, which later bounced.
Mayweather faces a "theft, value $100,000 or greater" charge, along with a charge for passing a bad check with intent to defraud, both stemming from a December 2024 purchase at a Las Vegas luxury jewelry store.
This is a picture of the Ref counting over Dmitry Salita after one of his three Round 1 knockdowns at the hands of then WBO World Champ Amir Khan, & was stopped in that round. Salita went on to later become reputedly the worst guy presently in the Boxing business.
Was asked about the Bad Guy's in Boxing list. The question is, since the list is not in order of the worst guy, who is the worst guy? By far, Dmitry Salita is the worst. And then was asked by the guy "Worst than Lou DiBella" I said "DiBella is bad, but Dmitry Salita is the worst"
