Talking about a left bicep injury but they’re icing the right, so could be the right. Didn’t notice him seeming hurt in anyway. Looked knackered though.
Cooking dinner so watching it with the sound off. He was holding his own and taken a couple of flush shots.

But yeah he was blowing like a my gardeners leaf thing. Surely he’s prepared for ten rounds.

:witzend: Talksport 2 keep losing the commentary. Blaming the weather. Missed the start and ending. Now it's back but it's Gareth A Davies. Don't know which was worse.

Shithouse. As much heart as he has punch resistance.

Good to see Dillian Whyte is earning a bit of cash minding the doors later on

Awful chin, awful stamina, awful jab, lacks heart.

How far can a fighter like that really go with just a good punch?

Is that right Price was carrying an injury going into the fight?

He said afterwards he’d had a tear in his bicep going in.

Price quits with a bicep injury? Just don't see what's left for him in this sport at this point. He has been fighting like he has nothing to lose lately. I'll give him that, which is what he needed. He's performed much better than when he was fighting so timidly.

If that's true then he's a moron. He's a vulnerable fighter at the best of times, carrying an injury into a fight would just make him downright stupid.

I don't really believe that either. Fighters love to make excuses.

Very few times do fighters not have crap excuses. Price is jus the millionth to do it.

Yeah, this fight has started crappy. The grabbing contest with almost no clean shots.
