Dereck Chisora says Dillian Whyte has "nowhere to go" apart from a rematch and insists his bitter rival did not believe he won Saturday's fight.
The British heavyweights produced a memorable battle at Manchester Arena last weekend, with Whyte emerging with a split decision points victory, which prompted immediate calls for a rematch.
Only one of the judges scored the fight 115-114 to Chisora, while Whyte took the win with tallies of 115-113 and 115-114, and 'Del Boy' was bitterly disappointed with the decision.
I think the crowd and I believe the whole world knew I had the decision, and I won by two, three rounds.
Chisora exclusively told Sky Sports: "I came to fight. I did say at the weigh-in - I'm going to come 'old school style' and I always knew I could fight like that, but I never put that in the ring.
"I think the crowd and I believe the whole world knew I had the decision, and I won by two, three rounds. The world knew that.
"Why the judges didn't think I won it, I don't know why? Even the last round he touched the canvas, but they didn't count that. When he went through the ropes, I don't understand why? If the ropes weren't there he would have been on the floor."
An ugly feud between the Londoners had boiled over at their pre-fight new conference and Chisora admits he did not heal their rift in the ring afterwards.
The Finchley man feels he is the only worthwhile opponent for Whyte next year and would be open to the idea of fighting on the undercard of Anthony Joshua-Wladimir Klitschko at Wembley on April 29, live on Sky Sports Box Office.
"He better take it, there is nowhere for him to go," said Chisora. "Where is he going to make more money? There is nowhere. I can go make more money, but he can't, so he will take it.
"If Eddie Hearn decides to come with a better offer, yes we might do it at Wembley. Who knows?"
Despite his frustration with the scorecards, Chisora did give Whyte credit for his performance, although he doubts whether the Brixton fighter really felt he deserved the victory.
"I had to put it on him, for him to come out of his shell," he said. "You obviously take your hat off to him because he did come out of his shell, but his punches weren't hurting me more than my punches.
"My punches were hurting him more than anything. Even when they said he won the fight, he didn't believe he won the fight. He knew he didn't win the fight."
