I'll take the man who trades on technique over the hometown muscle man who blasts out all his handpicked opponents.

Always thought Pricey looked a little lanky and hunched to be honest. Slender in places. In good shape but by no means a physical specimen like Wlad.

The nut huggery on allegedly is a right laugh lol

Doesnt really tell us anything about price's chin it was a shot to the back of the head that perforated an ear drum, love how people are so quick to write somebody off i still believe Price will go further in the sport than Fury and would beat him just my opinion but one that fight doesnt change

Fury should have a loss on his record from the first mcdermott fight but thats been brushed under the carpet by the fury brigade

the big man will be back!

But Fury hasn't and put all the doubts to rest by KOing mcdermott in that return everyone asked for
Price was put down 17 times in the ABAs ,even stopped in a final , what do you think tonight really tells us about his chin ?

Wlad has been down 11 times but dominated the divison, So i dont read much into them numbers

I dont think tonight has told us anything about Priceys Chin because he didnt take a shot to it ya could have the best chin in the world and still be stopped by a shot to the back of ya head that perforates your ear drum,

Price = David Lemieux

Yep x10
Price cant take a punch !

And plenty of evidence suggested that he couldn't take a punch. People conveniently threw that aside when labeling him the next big thing based on defeating domestic level opponents.

Where is all the Liverpool fools ?

Indeed - reading posters on here got my head scratching a lot - anyway, at least they can
desist now and get back to sensible boxing debate.

Fury will get found out too. hes been on his backside by far worse than thompson

It's not how you get knocked down, it's how you recover

A champion is someone who gets back up, even when he can't.

I gotta tell everyone , the nut huggers on this thread are all a joke ,...Price could not take a punch in the ABAs ,yet after being KOed tonight all his nut huggers wanna tell u that BS .
Like it or lump it ,Fury has proved he can get back up and win, Price can not !

He's not a champion, clearly.

peter fury: Problem with the majority of uk fans they always get behind the wrong guy. 1st time price been hit with not even a heavy blow & he's gone? No heart forget the chin, Got beat by a day 42 year old. So what you sayin now franny know it all, world champ???

i dont know most of the people with a decent knowledge of boxing said price looks the business but what happens when he is hit back or in with someone with some reach and height. I certainly expected him to win this fight but i wasnt surprised that he was sparked like that i think it was a concern of most sensible people that it could be coming.

Its just that some crazies made a big noise about a novice being good enough to step in the ring with the Klits today.

Id also say price looked shocking tonight he looked like he was crapping his pants.

Is your ear on the back of your head?

People going to the extreme in here it seems.

Prices chin was always a worry, tonight showed we were right to worry!

Fury? I like him, as I do Price. He still gets turned upside down and twice on Sundays if he ever shares a ring with Wlad. Would be a slaughter, different level entirely.

I would still like to see Price-Fury at sme point but I can understand why Fury wouldn't want it now. Nothing to gain, everything to lose. Unless Cunningham beats him of course.

There weren't that many worrying before the bout!

The whole story was of the big fight ending power held by Price.

Thre was only one semi-flush punch landed and the wrong man won.

Tyson Fury would stand Price on his head based on that.

Price's chin was a question mark, a big question mark due to his amateur career. The shot wasn't that good either. So it's pretty worrying.

I still think Price would beat Fury. Pajkic dropped Fury. Neither of them are in the same league as the Klitschko's. David Haye would beat both Price and Fury without many problems imo. Fury did box well against Kevin Johnson and showed discipline. Would he be disciplined and actually box against Price? He's too hard to tell. Fury looks really amateurish at times.

Price vs Dereck Chisora is the only fight I can see next. Would be a great fight for both fighters and will answer some questions about both of em.

Not sure why people are laughing at Maloney and Price.... It's a damn shame for British Boxing that Price got beat.

His head never really looked like a big heavyweight noggin that could take a shot.....

Hope he can come back......after all there's not much about after the Klits

I wonder what the next excuse on allegedly will be when when Price gets KOed ??
