Sprotty is far too experienced for Price and if he lands on Price's chin it is goodnight!
Pricey is a world class puncher and has so much am pedigree!! In Pricey your looking at britians very own Klitschko I have no doubt he's that good, once he takes off believe me where all in for good times!! He'll really do a painful job on Sprott....

Price looks like he might be a force to be reckoned with at British level, but not sure he's a world class puncher...yet. He didn't appear to have world class durability. Time will tell, but I'm not sure he'd be the last man standing if he got in the British mix of : Fury, Olubamiwo, Towers, Dallas, Sexton, Chisora etc

I think Price's chin will ultimately let him down.

Price has a lot going for him, he is big, he is strong, fit a big puncher - reminds me of Frank Bruno style wise. I just see Sprott as too experienced (at this stage) Sprotts handspeed will give Price fits and I am not convinced by Price's chin which is a big drawback as Sprott can punch. You'll remember when Price fought that Welsh Zimbabewan in the four nations? Sprott will land for sure and I can't see Price taking too many of them.

Very ambitious fight but Price needs a challenge. He can definitely win but won't be at all easy for him.
