Who is your tip to go the furthest and why?

As much i love tyson fury and im a huge fan (of of the few guys i actually bothered to watch in the am's) i don't think he will go the furthest of the 3.

My pick you be david price from the looks of him he seems the strongest and most technically capable boxer (i've not watched his last fight so im drawing off olympics and 1st 2 fights). He moves arpund the ring nicely and does a good job at protecting himself. the left jab is like a weaker wlads with a little less acuracy but that will come - wlads wasnt always that good a jabber. and he can unleash a thuinderous streight right - the 1 he flattened dave inglby with was amazing

now your turn

please dont go off topic and argue for as long as possible

Price for me.

Fury has looked good against average fighters, but has been shown up in his last two fights. He hasn't got the power in my opinion to compete regularly past British level. If he does miraculously gain a dig, then maybe he could go further on past European, but i just don't see it.

The few times i've seen Chisora he's looked scrappy. Don't think there's much there - British at best.

Enjoyed watching Pricey so far, not because he's been mind-blowing, but because he's shown strengths that could take to European, and maybe further. He's looked patient and didn't throw many punches in his first two fights (didn't see his last scrap), but when he did the power was there. He looked quite technical as well, not sluggish. If he works on his jab, which i'm sure he will because it's his third fight - then i'm positive he'll do well.

people backing fury over chisora? chisora has alot better speed..jab..physique. fury is a bum mcdonut delt with him with ease. price and chisora will go the furthest

Chisora is shite.

Price is our best shot, and I enjoyed the Q and A with him in BN.

Price
Fury
Chisora

In that order.

I actually think Dallas will go further than Chisora(namely British Champ, assuming Price and Fury see themselves as higher than that level)

Ever since I saw Price's debut I've said he's my pick.

I know he's ring rusty but has Price really impressed as much as Fury did after the same amount of fights?

I know they have fought different people but Fury would of knocked out Prices last 2 oppenents with ease I reckon. I know it's about how much they are to progress but I think Fury has fought some tough seasoned oppenents for being a 9 fight novice, I mean he's fought Swaby, Elliss and John McDermott, this is not including another highly rated novice Scott Belshaw. Will Price of fought this amount of tough oppenents at the same point in his pro career? I don't think so.

Of course McDermott was going to expose him, I would of been shocked if he didn't. The fact is he will learn from that fight and will probably do far better than the first match.

I do like Price but think that Fury will go further than him and Chisora. On the point of Chisora I think his lack of disapline will let him down and would be suprised if he got past European level, Price I reckon he needs to be more aggresive, if he does then maybe a world title of some kind. I think Fury will beat more high profile boxers.

Based on what they've done in the pros so far I'd go Fury, Chisora, Price, but Price is 7/8 fights behind at the moment, so it's a little uneven.

Fury has already won at championship level and showed a good chin against McDermott and bags of grit in a fight that he took at a very early stage of his career and passed. He's packed a lot of experience into a short time frame and if he can keep developing at the same rate, I'd pick him over the other 2, but it's early days.

Price, he is technically sound and has power behind his straight punches ecpeciallly that right hand, I like the way he conducts himself out the ring and inside the ring he is patient and will suit the pro game I'm tipping him too go all the way.

Depends what you're looking at. Fury came out and steam-rolled his opponents so naturally he's looked more dominant early on, than Pricey who has took his time in his fights so far, carefully picking his shots.

Me personally, i've seen the positives about Price, and also what he can work on - and truly believe he has what it takes to go further than Fury.

The power difference for one, Pricey has it, Fury doesn't.

yeh jbacca but apparently price has a dodgy chin. still looks better then fury

Even if Price has a dodgy chin, I think he'll still go further than Fury and Chisora. But, of course, this is boxing and anything can happen! DD

After reading ourkid1984's post, I'd like to see Price vs Belshaw.

Price. The other 2 are not that good!

Fury has not got any power, technique, conditoning, or a boxing brain.

He does have a dad though with a big gob.

He's going no where fast that boy.

Price has height, am experience and power......but he has a thin neck and ankles (like Harrison) will get stopped at euro level...but can he get the fights ?

Chisora is small and fat..but is a nice fighter....soaks the pressure and can dig in..so far... hes with Warren so will get to british and maybe euro level...a kind of british version of paolo vidoz...and must stop biting.

Fury is total wank...may beat blubberboy in rematch but will always struggle to ko brits from dave ferguson up....he is not good for the sport...a silly name and nothing more.

i go for fury as he is only a baby in terms of heavyweights and will of learned well from the mcdermott fight which he lost.
i think he shows good lateral movement and good power and has stopped all but one of his victories, he needs to stop believing his own hype which has certainly dented his image.
i also like the fact that he boxes regularly, so is always learning from both positives and mistakes.
Price has definite potential but he hasnt boxed enough and needs to be as active as fury for a full comparison to be made.
Chump change Chisora would lose to either fury or price, on fitness and the fact that they would both hit him back

Belshaw is fornicating shite!

price got the talent and the size to go far ! furry will get found out soon

I think chisora will go further. Simply because of the FW connection.

Fury I feel has already been exposed. And will do little more than domestic titles. And I have doubts about Prices chin.

I know that. It would be a fight in which Price would look really good.

Tough one, and a good question.

Weighing up how far they will get as opposed to people's expectations, I'm going to go for Chisora to exceed expectations by the widest margin. In saying that, I am giving him credit for being the underdog of the three; I rate Fury better than Price for second spot too - not that I don't think Price has the skills, but I think Camarelle showed int eh Olympics that he may have a slightly glassy chin.

Chisora is living prove that an "0" can hinder a good fighter - remember, he has roundly beaten current Commonwealth holder Sam Sexton. However, Sexton then felt able to go in for Prizefighter, smoked out another decent British level prospect in Chris Burton, and went on to take the CW from Martin Rogan. Whilst I personally thought that he was a bit fortunate in that fight and should have been stopped, he still deserves plaudits for getting on with the bigger fights. Meanwhile Del Boy has been another "Allegedly" opening prospect with very little speed in his push.

All in all, the British scene looks loaded with decent HW fights in the next couple of years with these four, Rogan, Harrison, Dallas and even Olubamiwo as well as the car crash that has become Danny Williams career and the trial horses of Sprott and McDermott.

i think larry o can be ruled out...he lost at the tomato can stage....as did Fury (unofficially)

dallas looks solid tho

still fury for me.

chisora is just a big mouth donut who has very little class, i havent been impressed with price in his three pro fights even though it's still early for him.

fury has looked better in his early fights than the other two guys and stopped some tough guys like zeller, swaby and peret. he was lucky against mcmuffin but he still won the fight and he'll look much better against him in the rematch.

time will tell though

Price alday long for me. He's the one with the pedigree and now that he's with Frank Maloney he'll get his chance to show it. Good guy too.

I think there is great potential for some high profile fights and hope the fact that there all with different promoters doesn't scupper that.
