Everyone else just gets underneath him and he freezes. His only window of opportunity is that momentary state (at best) when he's hurt and fires back.

Price easily dispatched of Dave Allen and showed some boxing skill, but last night its almost the Price we see more often. Price didnt have a clue how to fight him and it was almost like he actually didnt know how to box. He didnt have a plan at all except hold for dear life. Chisora could have fought all night like that and would have certainly lasted the 12 rounds better than David.

I really dont know what Prices strategy was? Its almost like he knows he is going to get knocked out. Price didnt even give it a go last night. He could have come out swinging and got koed in the first it would have been better than hanging and holding for 4 rounds.

Dave goes from one extreme to the other, he fights an area level fighter then goes back to the fringe of the world rather than fighting area levels then trying for something a bit simpler like the English. It was a great stoppage last night from his corner they did the right thing but this will not stop David from carrying on. I can see him coming back fighting an area level boxer again and getting a win. But where that takes him hell knows.

Realistically he needs to jack it in but he will be back next year.

That is because Allen is a journeyman and Chisora is a legit contender. That is why Price looked different.

It’s weird, he’s regressed from having

a) a decent jab to setup the right hand
To
b) a rubbish pawing jab which didn’t do anything
To
c) not even throwing jabs anymore

Dave Allen isn't a journeyman (yet). Dave is a top 10 British heavyweight.
