whats the story ?....they are not posting the fight result on either boxers record...
and before the fight they gave these views..

http://news.boxrec.com/news/2012/title-picture-bit-fuzzy-haye-v-chisora

the bit about which WBA belt it exactly was for is almost comical...allegedly and boxnation calling it different names.

so..what is the story...are boxrec the official fight record keepers, or does what they post matter?...and is the result on their records now ??

I imagine the fight result will go down on their records, Boxrec isn't official isit? just rankings website no different to what you would find on wikipedia, although Boxrec is obviously more detailed.

Very interesting dougie. Yeah what they post doesn't really matter in the grand scheme of things; they're a website and not a sanctioning body after all.

What else is interesting is they don't even have David Haye ranked. Chisora is ranked 14 but Haye is nowhere to be seen. Is there a legit reason for this?

They've had all those issues with Warren and are letting personal opinions and politics get in the way of their site. They should be there to say what has happened in professional boxing and the Haye-Chisora fight was a professional bout. It just seems petty them pretending nothing happened.

Boxrec is a great boxing resource but if they're going to start picking and choosing which fights they cover then that's going to have a negative impact on the site.

The fight was never listed there either. The Walsh fight isn't listed, as I imagine the other undercard fights aren't.

Bonkers. They're doing themselves no favours.

Boxrecs a joke anyway. They had Bute as #1 at 168 for years despite any evidence to base it on.

I understand their personal opinions on the fight and other issues but not mentioning this fight (or the undercard bouts) on their site seriously lets themselves down. Hopefully they change their mind soon.

Is it a points based system like the FIFA rankings? That might go some way to explain it.

It's an embarrassment

Petty wankers. Who cares, anyway. The night was a success.

No contest apparently

British Boxing Board of Control claimed Dereck Chisora fought under indefinite suspension by BBB of C within the European Boxing Union hence the bout was illegal in their view.
British Boxing Promoter's Association Chairman and Luxembourg Boxing Federation representative Bruce Baker stated before the fight Chisora's license had been withdrawn (not suspended) by the BBB of C so he could be issued a license elsewhere within the EBU. [1] Baker also accused the BBB of C of bullying tactics and lacking jurisdiction.
Baker also claimed the card was legally sanctioned under BBB of C rule 14B [2] allowing for a governing body approved by the BBB of C to legally conduct a card.
The Luxembourg Boxing Federation was subsequently expelled from the European Boxing Union (EBU) on July 15, 2012
The fighters and fights on the card initially listed on the Boxrec as a 'No Contest' presently in order for the bouts to be recorded as having taken place despite an unclear status
Besides Chisora, the other boxers on the card were legally licensed in Luxembourg and the British Boxing Board of Control. Haye was retired in the UK but licensed by Luxembourg.
