Do you think Derek Chisora should retire?

Derek Chisora

Joe Gallagher
Top trainer

Youโ€™re a long time retired and it is a huge decision to make. Itโ€™s very hard for a fighter to let go. People around him need to look after him.

Paul Ready
Boxing manager

Iโ€™d like to see him retire. I donโ€™t want to see Chisora as an opponent for Daniel Dubois/Tony Yoka/Filip Hrgovic and get hurt.

Andy Clarke
Sports commentator

Personally Iโ€™d like to see him retire. But itโ€™s his decision. We observers can be very quick to retire fighters, and with good intentions, thinking we know whatโ€™s best for them. But they get to decide when itโ€™s over, thatโ€™s their right.

Paul Smith
Retired in 2017

Yes he should. He should be proud of his career. Heโ€™s made a lot of money and has captured the hearts of so many British fans, myself included, but thatโ€™s because of the way he fights and unfortunately the way he fights isnโ€™t healthy long term. He has earned a good rest and I hope he enjoys it.
