David Price v Kash Ali

[Tony1244]

I found it interesting reading of how Pricey said he had to 'restrain' himself after getting bitten. To me it says a lot that a guy gets bit and was actually able to restrain himself in the ring. Wouldn't you think most anyone else would have gone a bit apeshvt?! Where's the killer instinct? Maybe Price is too civilized for boxing?!

I think Price's problem is his chin, not his brain. If you can control yourself in that situation, that's good. Let that asshole Kash Ali take the entire fine.

His chin is by far his biggest problem. I'm questioning if he is a fighter, instinctively. He may have been one at one time, but he just seems 'flat.'

Remember Duane Bobick?

OMG! Don't remind me. I followed him from the Pan Am games when he beat Teofilo Stevenson. Then it was all disappointment after disappointment. I still have images of the funny faces he made as Norton pummeled him! LMAO!

ya holyfields a pussy too right

Nobody's saying,or implying that

Bizarre comment

Holyfield & Price clearly aren't pussys,look at there chosen careers....

Just have strong levels of restraint/composure

It's a fair opinion to suggest either man would be within their rights to attack back

[ClivePatrickLyons]

It was a odd way to win a fight but a wins a win and Price I like him I hope he gets a Big payday before its all over.

No but price is for not putting a beat down in kash

The thing is jamamb seems to get real butt hurt whenever anyone says a bad word against price,price is a nice guy but kash should of been put to sleep after the first bite attempt.

[jamamb]

holyfield, he of great fighting spirit, didnt start with elbows, headbutts, etc after he got part of his ear bitten off, big deal if price didnt go apeshit and looking for a street fight after a nibble, lol anything to keep on with the price is a weak little baby who needs protecting nonsense

a low blow wudve been more damaging then that nibble btw

[SenorPipino]

Maybe Price, as a veteran professional boxer, suspected that Ali was going to be DQ'd. So he kept his head and refrained from stooping to Ali's amateurish street fight mentality.

The W is what it's all about. Price remained calm and got it. It's not a barroom fight. It's boxing, and you need to keep your emotions in check if you want to succeed.

Ali couldn't do it and lost. Price did and had his hand raised.

you guys are making way too much of this, the price is a mentally weak mess stuff is just so overboard at this point even if it started with lots of truth to it

guy looked pissed off and then walked up to ali and said something

not even holyfield started going rogue and throwing elbows and headbutts, and he walked back to his corner instead of running and tackling tyson . and holyfield got bitten waay worse.

Yeah, surely the number of fighters who have actually reacted very aggressively to being badly fouled is tiny compared to the number who just got on with it? It’s very rare that you see boxers kicking off with each other, they’re usually too disciplined for that.

And what if the ref hadn’t even intended to disqualify Ali, just take 2 points off or something? Price wouldn’t have known 100% the ref was going to disqualify Ali, so if he had reacted aggressively then it might have ended up being Price who was chucked out!

I love it how we are still talking about a David Price fight.

Funny! (but true).

You go back further than I do with Duane. There are a lot of similarities with David Price.

*Both won at least 1 Olympic Match but came up way short of the Gold.

*Both are/were good punchers.

*Both dedicated to their craft.

*Both are very chiny.

*Both went undefeated as a pro for a good run.

Did you watch the fight? Ali was out on his feet, which is why he did what he did.

[Tony1244]

He stopped Holmes in amateurs.

Yup. Bobick also beat T. Stevenson in the 1971 Pan American Games.

Ye man i was watchin it,i seen price in the previous round against the ropes gassed and ready to go. I also seen price saying to his corner that kash was tough straight after the fight. The longer a fight goes the more vunerable he is. Price should of have made easy work of him given the experience he has.

No worries, bud. I think Ali was about fifteen seconds away from being stopped though.

ali had been hurt much worse then prce and was the one unraveled physically and mentally. he was worse in every respect and pretty much done.

Lovely tweet from Ali. Having watched videos of him being interviewed, I find it hard to believe that he wrote that.

Yeah, it's pretty obvious it was prepared for him.
