"I fought David Price three years ago, when I was 17. It was my ninth amateur bout, I knocked him down in the fight, but lost it on points," explained Fury.

Bit different to getting "destroyed" in 2 rounds. And being all hype for losing his 9th amateur bout against a future commonwealth and olympic medalist. ;)

I didn't like the look of Price in the olympics. I think he will have to markedly adapt his style if he's to have success in the pros.
same here
seems tailor made for amateur boxing as he likes to pick his shots and take his time.
Someone like tyson fury who may even be not as technically good as david will go further because he seems like he can fight as well as box and wont be afraid to get his hands dirty.
Genuinely think the same things about jeffries and degale, only really see frankie gavin making a big impact at pro.
I agree with the above apart from the fact I believe Degale will do well as a pro!

I like David, he made me laugh in the olympics.. when he knocked the guy out in the first round all he kept doing was screaming " YOU BASTARDS " to the crowd. Those scouses... full of it.
