It will add to the Joshua highlight real.
The fight is inevitable

True. I can see Price continuing after this but he shouldn't.

Price needs his Manny Steward.

I don't see why he has to quit ?

He looked near death as he hit the canvas

He needs to retire more.

Wilder will prob fancy the Pov fight

He is too fragile. Getting knocked out causes long term problems neurologically. Any devent puncher will stop him. Its time to call it a day.

Povetkin will get ironed out by a good big man like wilder or even worse joshua.

He took that left full force with no knowledge of it coming. Its just luck he wasnt really badly hurt. Fortunately he wasnt caught right on the point of the chin.

Workrate would beat him. He is 38 and was feeling the pace early.

The way he. Froze after the first punch reminded me of the way Bruno reacted in some fights- shame to see the next punch land though

It is, but let's give the man his due. How many of us'd be brave enough to fight at that level with his vulnerabilities?

could be denial, but yeah...I don't have that kind of courage.

Derry’s Barnet still needs a bit of work

This. He showed great courage in there.

I think he's been stopped enough times to know what's up.

Yeah for a limited man you've got to respect the bottle prices got

I heard he broke his hand in the third.

Certainly went out on his shield. There’s so much goodwill for price in the game, hopefully he can become a great trainer, and there should be no shortage of TV work

redemption of a sort - for the first time in years he walks out the ring with his head held high.
He didn't fight terrified either.

Of course he should probably quit, but if he wants to fight on - why not ? That was Povetkin in there after all.
I'd still love to see him in Prizefighters, maybe even British title fights.

Stupid wasn't it. Mistakes leading to ko's aren't bad luck unfortunately.
