As I've said before, there is a distinct possibility that one of Price's devastating rights will land on Fury's chin, which means game over BUT Fury would go gun-ho and will let off a lot more shots than Price will and WOULD connect at some point, early and has much more than enough power to KO Price, which would no doubt spell the end for the big man

No, Fury has never been hurt and in big trouble against an opponent. He has never been close to being stopped.

He was certainly hurt by Chisora in the 2nd round of the first fight and by Pajkic, not to mentioned floored heavily by Cunningham. If they can trouble Fury if they land Price certainly can. Only a fool would believe otherwise.

No, it is far more likely that Price would get caught and finished early as he is the far inferior fighter.
That's a matter of opinion to which you are fully entitled.

Fury went down against Pajkic and Cunningham, but he wasn't badly hurt.

This "floored heavily" talk is oft repeated, yet highly inaccurate.

But the point is that if he can be dropped by those sort of guys then if Price connects it's highly likely he'd be in big trouble.

Price can hurt anyone, but Fury is unlikely to be as careless as he was against Pajkic and Cunningham.

Fury is likely to connect early and often against Price. Price is unlikely to be able to withstand many rounds of Fury's offence.

For all the feeling I have that Price would lose, I would still love to see this fight. It would still generate good hype I agree, good rivalry and enough question marks to make it interesting.
