I think this should be pretty easy for Pryce. Martin has been knocked out by a few ordinary guys and sort of produced a big shock last time out which has resurrected him. He has a punchers chance in the first 4/5 rounds but Pryce has sort of acquired a professor status and though he is still relatively young its still somewhat of an unexpected Indian Summer for him career wise. I keep on expecting him to get beat and he keeps on proving me wrong.
I think Small is a much better fighter than Concepion to which bodes well for Bradley.

Pryce all the way for me. Bradley seems really focussed recently, probably due to being part of a successful camp, with Calzaghe, Maccarinelli, and now Rees, and he should have too much for Conception.

You couldn't write off Conception cause he can dig a bit, but Pryce should be too good and should stop him in the early/mid rounds.

This should be a fairly straight forward victory for Pryce.Never really been impressed with Concepion and I see this as a step down in opposition from Anthony Small.

Bradley has to be not only one of the UK's most entertaining fighters, he's also one of the most improved and he's a gutsy fkker too.

His resume, at his level, is tougher than any of his contemporaries.

Pryce has clearly done very well at domestic level. But that is as far as he is going. Enzo Calzaghe has got him fighting really well and at British level he will give anyone a decent scrap.

Very disaapointed in Anthony Small, really felt he had the beating of Pryce but it seems his head is in the land of cuckoo and he seems to be far more interested in scoring points elsehwhere other than in the ring.

Agree- Moore aside.

I think your harsh on Pryce's potential, he can box he can scrap, and he has balls of titanium and in the Enzo gym he'll have good stamina, and excellent sparring.

Pryce still has potential beyond British title level IMO.

For those who missed it.

Gavin Rees just won the WBA title.

Is he more gifted than Bradley Pryce?

No he not only simply beat a champion who was not worthy of a title but also won who quite clearly did not take his opponent no better than an early sparring partner from a training session.

Actually, I think Pryce' style could give Dzindiruk some problems... I'm not sure if Dzindiruk likes fighting at a pace.

However, ultimately I think Pryce would just ship to many good punches at European level to win the EBU title. Not saying he is chinny, but he is no David Tua either (Small was hurting him).

While Pryce is more gifted than Rees (IMO), he will not have a breathing punch bag holding a world belt.

how do you know this? who else is on the bill?.

I back Pryce in 5 rounds. Concepcion has been found out i'm afraid, he has heart and a punch but i doubt he can take Pryce's power and will get probably knocked out.

This fight is not a done deal yet.

I think Dzinzurik's jab would be capable of negating any game plan Pryce had straight away and I feel the Ukrainian would probably hit too hard for Pryce(who as you pointed out doesn't quite have the chin at the higher level) .

Pryce has done well for himself and is a good solid domestic champion who could progress to European level . I fancy him to beat Concepcion and possibly hold on to that commonwealth title for quite some time yet .
But I don't expect him going after the British title till Moore vacates.....
