Derek Chisora came through a brutal 12-round fight with Kubrat Pulev on Saturday night, and was seemingly still feeling the after-effects when he listed his dream dinner guests
Adolf Hitler is unlikely to feature on too many people's lists of dream dinner guests - but the despised dictator makes Derek Chisora's party
Chisora of course, has never been one to conform to the norm, whether it be in or out of a boxing ring. And on Saturday night at The O2 Arena, he was at his brawling best to earn a split decision win over Bulgarian fighter Kubrat Pulev, amusingly taking his shorts off before the verdict was announced.
In a brutal fight, 'Del Boy' appeared to be running out of steam on numerous occasions, only to surprise fans, and his opponent, by responding with counter attacks. He'd previously been his usual unconventional self in the build-up, wearing a Boris Johnson mask when he weighed-in to show support to the former Primer Minister.
And he may still have been feeling the knock-on effects of his exhausting bout when he was asked to name his ideal group of guests for a dinner party. As expected with the 38-year-old, he named an eclectic mix, but even his standards the inclusion of Hitler was jaw-dropping.
When asked his preferred line-up by The Times, Chisora said: "Jesus Christ, the Lord Saviour who made all men and women. Adolf Hitler, just to ask him why he did what he did."
And if the prospect of Jesus, Hitler, and Chisora chatting over dinner wasn't intriguing enough, he added a few more unique names into the mix: "Julius Caesar, the Roman Empire guy. George III, who was king when Britain conquered some of Asia and Africa."
Who would be your ultimate dinner guests? Let us know in the comments section.
To round off the party, he added: "The first white pilgrims who invaded America on the Mayflower. Why did they do that? The world’s big enough for everyone."
However, despite being 38, it doesn't appear likely Chisora will be entering the world of party planning just yet. After beating Pulev, he voiced his desire to have more top level fights, calling out former world heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder.
"I told Eddie Hearn the other day, if he can get me the Bronze Bomber I'll be happy," he said shortly after his win. "I want to fight everybody in my era. Win or lose, I just want to fight."
A candid conversation with Hitler would actually be quite interesting. However he was a vegetarian with chronic flatulence, so him as a dinner guest would be out of the question
I would HATE to have a conversation with Hitler.

I only understand English!
Out of all the people who ever existed, having Hitler and other notable people would make for helluva after dinner conversations.
I’d pick Hitler, Stalin, Churchill, Tojo and Roosevelt
First topic:. What the hell were you thinking?
Reminds me of the great Steve Allen show “Meeting of Minds”.
Do you really think there would be a candid conversation?
“WELL, HE STARTED IT!”
you can invite Hitler to dinner, but remember, he’s a vegetarian and doesn’t speak english.
probably wouldn’t be much fun.
I was a little young to understand who all the he people were but I do remember watching bits of it.
Would be a great show with the right host but they’re too busy with stupid dating and game shows.
Normal people are quite boring. After the dinner conversation do we get to choose the evening entertainment? After dinner lwtss go to the colosseum for a good lion show.
My Dinner With Adolf. PBS would show it.
“Nein,nein, nein”!!!!!
LOL! I was imagining all of them pointing at each other!
“you can invite Hitler to dinner, but remember,”....
You’ll need an army to make him leave!
Oh yeah. With a room full of egos, you can imagine the arguments and finger pointing.
But nobody will drink the wine first.
Not so sure Hitler would be an interesting party guest. He might be an interesting interview, but even then, I am not convinced that one would learn anything new.
>> Hitler, Stalin
Discourse with such evil would no doubt be quite repulsive, let alone over a meal.
He’d probably troup through my neighbors house to get to mine.
Obscure Belgian joke.
Evil is often more interesting than good. That’s part of it’s allure. It’s “fatal attraction”
But I would check my guests for weapons before the first course being served.
