However in this instance, completely agree. Fury has nil balance, when Price lands hard Fury will be in big trouble.
what about if Fury lands ?? Price was knocked down 18 times in the ABAs and got stopped ...what if he cant get Fury out of there ?? Fury will be to much for the weak chinned price,trust me Maloney will not let Price anywhere near Fury at this early stage,well not if hes got any brains he wont :wink:
Fury is so overrated! When Price lands on him in game over!

My biggest reservation about Price is if he can take it, from what I saw of him before he turned pro there has to be a questionmark over his durability. Technique, speed and power can all be improved over time but a weak chin cannot be. Fury might not be the finished article by some way but for a 22 yearold heavy he isnt doing too bad and better still he is getting meaningful matches against fighters who are challenging him and teaching him things in there. I just hope he is not simply rushed into world level in the next 18 months... let him develop at british and euro level for the next 3 years and then put hi in with some top contenders and I think in 4 years time we could have a heavyweight prospect who can do something at the top level... even with a broken toe perhaps!!! ;;-) :bow: :oo :box: :bag:

What has Price actually done as a pro so far to support this??. Fury was caught clean a number of times by chisora and stood up under shots that I am not sure price would have been able to take. If nothing else Fury has proved already that he can take a good shot and come back fighting in the same round. This is something that Price is yet to prove.
