Pricey may have his flaws, but that punch is huge and if he lands it he can KO anyone

Hunter is a lot smaller and has been hurt by much lesser punchers

:maybe:
Ahh yeah the mythical Price punch he, by some pure fluke, hasn't managed to land for about 7 years yet gets everyone excited

Nah, he's tactics were right but put himself in danger. It wasn't that one-sided before stopped. Price nearly leveled him at one point
He buzzed him very briefly with an uppercut. He’s far too gun shy to hang with these guys esp now.
Yeah no doubt. When did he last knock someone cold? 2014?

Yeah, but even against Povetkin there was a moment when - whilst approaching inevitable KO defeat - Pricey relaxed, let his hands go and stunned Pov ! His deluded fans (me anyway) dreamt for a few seconds, that maybe THIS time, the plucky plumber would unblock the Russian's toilet. It didn't happen - of course.
But, I still love watching Pricey. :box:

No such thing as a blown up cruiser weight.

All CW’s are just HW’s that HAVE to make weight.

He’s naturally a 220’er. Doesn’t look bad. Comes in good condition.

When was the last time Price used that 'solid bang' to win or finish a fight?

Hunter does look soft around the sides and would probably have been a good post Usyk cruiserweight if he’d remained. Hunter actually gave him a decent argument in their good fight, years ago.

Is there a specific number of times Price has to be rendered unconscious before this nonsense stops getting trotted out?

Anyone who wants to see Allen on TV now is more interested in Z level celebrity than boxing

There’s definitely a turning up for the payday element creeping in there now. It was obvious he wasn’t prepared for Chisora physically or mentally. How much does Price get in purses these days? I do hope he doesn’t end up like Danny Williams, jobbing around Europe and getting bashed by every fighter under the sun. Hunter will just avoid the big swings and Price will collapse in a heap in the middle rounds, or sit it out on his stool.

Look at the Chisora fight , he was floored , not heavily and his corner threw the towel in straight away as they have no confidence in Prices ability to recover. Plus Price didn't complain to them for doing that, neither have any confidence in a win, it's just for paydays now.
I'd expect the same in the Hunter fight.
