After Ryan wins a UD in 30 min. Poor Dave I feel sorry for him the nerves are going to be like flying saucers in his stomach at the moment
Yeh i presume he's next. Tbh I'll be impressed & pleasantly surprised if Price hears the second bell.
For some reason I'm kinda thinking Povetkin will come out, and almost let Price survive the 1st round by just kinda pawing at him with jabs, and stuff, and then I expect he bombs him out in the 2nd. Don't know why.

But yeah he could easily take him out in the 1st if he chooses to. Or so you'd think.
Incredible size difference as they faced off at the weigh in, On the face of it you’d think the big man with a ram rod jab, if he actually used it, would make it a nightmare for the russian to get even close to his chin...

Booth is not doing his fighter any favours with such a dull performance on the big stage here

He's so nervous about his chin and then the lack of stamia kicks in - looking back I think Audley could have beaten him if he had the right head on

Hopefully, the next 2 will more than add value to it.

What's the general atmosphere like?
Sh!t and dull, same as every stadium fight. Every time Joshua appears on the screen it goes mad, but that’s about it. Should liven up soon anyway.

Honestly Audley was much more successfull for all he's mocked. He found a level where he could win stuff, and fought there, Price fights club fighters then steps up and gets KOed, terrible management.

I so hope he could pull off the super-upset though and turn it all around.

I always think that Tyson Fury must have kicked himself that he didn't take the fight with Price after he saw how easy he was to beat.

I can't give Parejo any of these rounds thus far though he's given a game effort.

Quite...I've actually stopped paying attention to it. There's been little excitement in the undercard so far.

Price knows its the last roll of the dice. Expectations are low so the pressure is off.

God this fight is boring.

I thought price said all the right things but he bit his body language wasn't saying the opposite. Bit his lip at the start, wasn't looking down the camera etc.

Really want him to do it. Would absolutely make my night
