Tyson Fury decisions Dereck Chisora in “The Big Brawl”
July 23rd, 2011
By John F. McKenna (McJack): Undefeated Tyson Fury (15-0, 10 KO’s) won a lopsided unanimous decision tonight over Dereck Chisora (14-1, 9 KO’s) to win the British and Commonwealth Heavyweight Titles. The fight had been dubbed “The Big Brawl” and was an entertaining fight.
Fury’s training program paid off for him as he performed well in the latter stages of the fight. Fury weighted in at 255 ½ pounds and looked to be in top shape. Chisora on the other hand came in at a hefty 261 pounds although he is almost 8 inches shorter than Fury.
Chisora had his moments in the early stages of the fight and rocked Fury a couple of times. Chisora, however did not capitalize and each time he was rocked Tyson soon retook control of the fight once more.
The three judges scored the fight 117-112, 117-112 and 118-111 for Tyson Fury. For Chisora this is his first loss and is a severe disappointment. Previously he had been picked to be an opponent for Heavyweight Champion Vladimir Klitschko, but that fight was derailed when Vladimir was injured and then opted to fight David Haye instead.
The win over Chisora was by far Fury’s most important and impressive victory thus far and demonstrated that he is a force to be reckoned with in the heavyweight division. Fury showed a maturity in this fight that had not been seen before. Overall it was a solid performance by Fury.
Vladimir Klitschko, after trouncing David Haye on July 2 in Germany, had already mentioned the winner of the Chisora – Fury fight as a possible future opponent.
Tyson Fury at 23 years of age has shown much improvement over his past few fights. He is not yet however, by any stretch of the imagination, ready to deal with either of the Klitscko’s. It is hoped for his own good that he is not rushed into such a fight. Time after all is on Fury’s side.
In other action on the card:
Ryan Toms TKO 4 Pat McAleese
Kid Galahad PTS 6 Pavels Senkovs
Ashley Theophane KO 10 Jason Cook

I’m sorry Mr McKenna, but did we watch the same fight???? Fury looked in good shape???!!! Hell no he didnt! Combination punching, well, one punch comvbos for much of the fight and by no means was this an impressive victory.
I dont know what the appeal is with Tyson Fury, he has no boxing style, no real technique and lacks power for such a big heavy guy. He punches from the shoulder an awful lot aswell as punching from hip level. From what i saw, if that is who Britain is pinning our hopes on for future glory, then just get ready for disappointment!!! After 14 fights, we should expect to see the type of fighter that has developed, yes, they may have little problems here and there, but should be damn near developed, Fury is no different now from the first 5 of his fights!!!
Sadly, he needs to get rid of his uncle as his coach and learn to fight before talking about taking on wlad Klitschko
I am looking forward to the very colourful and talented David Haye.
I fell that after receiving his thrashing at the hands of Mr. Steelhammer he has learned a lesson or two. I am so glad that the lad came out of his debacle inury free!
david price would beat fury right now
Fury did what he had to do and also takes a very good shot,price would be a good fight but i think it’s a bit early for him,Towers is a good prospect but has a padded record,same as Dallas had and he paid the ”Price”.Big John pulled out of his eliminator with Price so dos’nt deserve a shot,also Fury stopped him last time out.Fury needs a new trainer if he wants to go further but after only 15 fights he’s still learning. The division will be wide open in 2 years when the Klits retire,no need to rush the big man!
It’s all about boxing guys. Knock off all the gutter talk. Stop hiding behind your computers talking trash. I’m sure you feel like big boys, but come on grow up!

Listen to Jackson. He knows of what he speaks!
Here we go again, another demonstration of loyalty towards Chisora who went from huge favorite to a c level bum.
Anything to diminish their conqueror’s credit.
Dont get confused wiv top cat and top hat we different but i do ahree wiv top cat
Big jon would beat you like he did before
Big jon would beat you again like he did b4
Dont get excited fury wont get no big name, not good enough fight and beat big jon again and i will respect you more
Boystov not chisora
When i said the best i ment in gb or would have sais boystov cunningham or arrellio
When i said best heavweight i ment in gb. Otherwise it would be chisora, cunningham or boystov
Rob. Other than haye chisora is the best heavyweight. Tyson should defend against big john who should have got a descion before but he wont he would duck out of that. If not defend against tough margin rogan who is respecte. A rematch wiv a fit chisora and we will see a new champion
Fury should call out Valuev (if he ever fights again), it’s a smarter move than to fight Wladimir and take a step back after he gets badly beaten.
Why don’t Haye try Fury for a tune-up for Vitali. Think Fury will rip Haye’s ponytail? Hell no! Maybe stamp on Haye’s little toe.
I’m English and mock all religion…
Chisora definitely a money grabbing bum agree with you fully. He was flabby and unprepared and should get back to flogging old bangers in his yard. He totally disrespected those belts he brought to the ring.
Anon: There is no one for Tyson to fight in the UK nobody wants to let there man fight him , he is not the finished article but always finds a way to win, never mind fight 5/6 times a year i dont even think there is 5 heavyweights that would be sanctioned to fight him available.
He needs to go to America, he has loyalty to his uncle who trains him but they have hit a brick wall and Tyson needs a new trainer that can take him up a level or ten.
Fatty CHISORA IN WITH THE KLITCHCOS What a laugh lol lol
THE Lazy FAT GREEDY Bully got Bullied lol lol
What a disgrace he was the British champion was any body proud of him as chump i mean champ.
Tyson please go to America with Freddie Roach you can be the best.
Rob: well he should fight a lot more often, 5 or six times a year, look how the Klitschko´s did it, in their first years they fought 8-9 times a year.
All you tyson haters wake up , if they put the 22 year old in with a great trainer he will reign supreme for many years, Chisora is just a money grabber he admits this, this is not good for the sport.
Chisora now needs to disapear and sell cars fat slob never even trained properly LOOSER.
Also some of you haters dont semm to know the rules of boxing ,,Chisora bites ears you clueless gets.
Try and learn a bit bout the sport Ryan then leave comments ,,Dafty
Tyson Fury is mental… Not right in the head… Lost the plot. Grinning and mugging to the cameras and people ringside, did he take an E before te fight? Lunatic!!! Hasn’t got the mental strength to be great. But hey he’s got god in his corner!!! Idiot!!!
I WANT THAT COWARDLY BIATCH LENA LEW TO CAME BACK HERE AND FIGHT WLAD. OOH, I FORGOT, LENA HAS NO BALLS AND CAN ONLY TALK
Just looked up that guy Richard Towers, he is simply a beast, can’t wait to see what he does in boxing.
fury has been 12 before
Now Tyson boy, uncle Wlad is waiting for you
jesus man if chisora cant bear fury than its all over for him, tyson has inproved a lot and now stands 2 make big money from the game, he needs 5 r 6 more fights b4 he tinks of the klits brothers, he also needs 2 stay away from price as he wod beat him rite now, gud luck tyson and i hope u get a shot at one of the brothers and make some money cause thats wat this game is all about make n as much money as u can.
And klitschko wanted to give that man a shot. Astounding
Furys tactics were very suspect,blatant holding,laying on and disrespect for his opponant.
Dosn’t matter if he’s whipping the man,just show some respect,be a little more dignified and use your skills properly.
Fury is not the answer to englands dire lack of a good heavyweight,once he gets tagged by a good big un he’ll not last long.
And please stop pushing the jesus thing.
Del boy was not in good shape. Didnt think he would loose. Fury should defend against big jon as he got a dodgy win before, but he wont do that or against tough martin rogan
Where is sean Mcdaniels? Eat some humble pie you mug. and all you haters are losers fury spanked him hahaha
To be honest I was rooting for Chisora at the start of the fight because I’m not a big fan of Fury. But as the fight went on Fury went up in my estimation and Chisora tumbled down. All he [Chisora] was looking for was that one big shot and Fury movement was to good. I felt sorry for Chisora trainer, pleading with him to use the jab to set up the left hook – but all Chisora done was swing over the top. Poor poor fight from Chisora and hats off to Fury.
I would like to see Fury fight David Price (11(9)-0-0) or Richard Towers (11(8)-0-0). For those of you who have not heard of Richard Towers look him up – he is a man mountain who would eat Fury for breakfast!
Cr ap fight. wlad’s gonna eat fury
fury is very direspectfull. Dirty trailer trash pikey should be in the slammer with his oldman infact lock the lot of them up i say.
insider…its boxing not ice skating. holyfield used peds…tons of them. he was an expert at the head butt, low blows, elbows, and was also a biter. he held, wrestled, pushed, tripped…and was admired for it. haye should have been disqualified when he kept hitting ruiz in the back of the head, esp when ruiz was falling and he carefully aimed down at the back of his head—a potentially fatal blow. has all this bothered you or were you merely rooting for chisora and dont like that he lost?
@Thomas he was dirty holding grabbing ropes while chis in the corner not allow him out and throwin Chisora over the ropes an layin over him thats alright is it? that is blattant fouls and didnt even get recognised, thats what changed the fight an enabled Tyson to win because if not it was certain nite nite for Tyson, he cheated in a manner which manipulated the outcome of the fight in other words a no contest.
whys that insider what was up?
Dirty pikey c Chisora should of won on disqualification with Fury’s tactics why didnt Fury even get a warning its becoming a joke boxing, Ref should be banned and they should be forced for imediate rematch ifnot it call a no contest
Fury won. U idiots. Del boy is a joke.
Tyson Fury, man, what a gypo!
