I am officialy announcing that David Price's last opponet was the worst boxer I have ever seen. Another opponent brought in by Maloney proves no test whatsoever.

Price landed a very soft left hook on the guys glove and he fell to the floor. It didnt even touch his head. He got up, then got blew out by a body shot.

When are these promoters going to bring someone slightly tougher to the table?

yeah that was bad.

bellew's one weren't much better for the commonwealth strap.

u don't get too many budding azumah nelson's coming over from ghana these days.

Yes, it pis*es me off how they call every single African fighter tough, just because he is African. It was the same with Clottey. The Naive British stereotype any fighter from a foreign country into some kind of f**king beast.

Grainger was a Cruiserweight who usually boxes at around 14,1/2 stone. He put on a stone in weight to fight Price who was still around 3 stone heavier. I don't really think he is the worst boxer you have seen, at Cruiser he stopped Hastings Rasani in the 1st round, this is something that only Bellew, Haye n Macaranelli have managed so shows something. His fight before Price he boxed Jon Lewis Dickinson who is a good prospect, he got beaten on points but was very flat in that fight and was not disgraced.

To be honest he should never really of fought against Price as he was way too big, powerful and heavy.

To say he is the worst boxer you have ever seen is disrespectful.

Grainger isn't a bad fighter at all but he is a cruiserweight and Price can punch if nothing else.

I think Price will find his level in the pro ranks soon enough - give him credit though - he was a massive
'overachiever' as an amateur and won everything that mattered - ABA's, commonwealth games and olympic
medals so fair play to him.

Slight exageration eh?! I think the above quote would apply to the Latvian Lemmings alright.

Notice you made 3 post ,2 about price.........Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm Come on you tell me really has any of the olympians been really tested yet are they not novice pros.Grainger is not a bad lad seen him box twice but he is a cruise.

No, its not disrespectful. If you watch the hook to the head that floored hin, it didnt even land. It scraped his glove and he looked like he'd been hit by a fork lift. Still, like I say, I blame Maloney.

The punch did land, it clipped the back of his head. If you have ever boxed before, you will know that getting hit on the back head sends you into a daze, especially when they are 3 stone heavier.

Anyone who calls anyone the worst opponent ever has obviously never boxed. How can you criticise someone for getting blown away by a 6ft8 Olympian who outweighs them by 3stone?

Like I keep saying, go and watch the fight. The punch didnt land. I can tell youve never boxed so you wouldnt understand. Try a cricket forum.

I have been in and around boxing for many many years and I will say that Baloney's last few opponents have been Diabolical and an insult not only to his fighters but the paying public and Sky. The OP can say the guy was the worst opponent HE has ever seen if it is true. He is not saying anything disrespectful just his opinion. My opinion is that Baloney should be made to reimberse all paying public for his last 2 Shows.

I was ringside for the fight, i have also had around 85 fights over a 16 year period so i think i'm qualified to have an opinion on the matter.

Furthermore, Daley is a current pro with 23 fights.

Jab and Move, maybe you need to give both their opinions greater weight

However, you are fully entitled to your opinion as Taffytoon said.

View it on Frank Maloney's Youtube site, defo a shot to the back of head

If you believe matchups such as that one are acceptable, fair enough. But, in my opinion, it is unintresting and 100% unbeneficial to both fighters career, completly pointless fight, as many Maloney fights seem to be.

I boxed the lad pricey boxed In The ammatures at heavy an he's a tough kid. Pricey just had too much for him but you've got to give him some credit for having the balls to give away three stone and about half a foot in height away! Pricey can only beat who he shares the squared circle with an let's be honest if they ave had to get a crusierweight in looks like the heavy are not interested in which again I think grid deserves a pat on the bk for takeing the fight.

I think it's difficult to get fights for a 6'8 heavyweight.

At least he is going through the motions if nothing else and it's not like he's headlining.

As a viewer it's pretty pants i agree, but to be honest Price will be learning more in the gym than fight night for at least another year.

Couple of good posts.

That is a more sensible post than how you started this thread. "Officially the worst boxer ever" is what you said. Grid is a good boxer, he was just hugely out gunned. I talked to him after the fight and he said the first shot clipped the top of his head. I think he just got caught funny. It happens when you get clipped sometimes. At least he had the balls to get in there

It's a fact that Grid boxed Price because they could not find a British heavy to share the ring with him!

jab and move dissed prizefighter , so im not sure hes reputable as a poster.

however

i agree on this point.

Price/larry o/Dallas and Fury all have shocking records against foreign imports.

whereas Sexton and Rogan's records and acheivements speak for themselves.....

i believe Richard Towers will also benefit from his diet of homegrown fighters.

Could it be a case of the potential domestic opponents not being offered enough money to fight Price as opposed to them just not wanting to fight him full stop?

Someone brought up Lewis as an example of how well Maloney can guide Heavies, yet didn't Maloney have the backing of a multi-million pound company, who were not shy when it came to throwing money around, when Lewis started out? A few fighters had great paydays out of fighting Lewis(ask Glenn McCrory!)

Its about matching correctly at the right level. Price should never of been matched with a cruiserweight. The board should be held responsible as well, we have this type of thing happens far to often in the heavies.
