If Joshua is destroying the same men inside 6 minutes that Fury can't hurt in 6 rounds it would suggest that Joshua is a MUCH bigger puncher than Fury. That's a fact. It may also suggest that Joshua is much more talented and superior to Fury. That is not a fact yet. Time will tell.
Price might not be able to take it but he sure as fuck can give it. He didn't become a non-dangerous walkover job for any prospect just because he failed against Thompson. He has the power to chin out any heavyweight in the world (apart from Oliver McCall).
Why can't he learn from experience? Did Fury not learn from his loss to Fat John McDermott? He came back a better fighter and righted it. Price could be back among the top guys within a year.
When Fury got the decision against McDermott he didnt fall apart. He fought the english title holder only 8 months after turning pro (it took Price 3 years to get to that level!;D). Then Fury knocked him out in the rematch. What did Price do better against Thompson?
Price is now irrelevant. He's been shown up as someone who hasn't got the stomach for pro boxing. Bit like Tony Bellew. Must be Liverpool. Any sportsman from there seems to get filled full of bull and then is full of themselves.
As for punch power, im sure Frank Bruno had more power than Larry Holmes.....
McDermott had been walloped half-a-dozen times before he beat Fury. The point is Fury cameback after learning from it. If you can gain experience from losing to a man that was never good enough to go beyond English level, you can comeback from losing to a world-rated fighter that only Wlad Klitschko had beat.
Whether or not Price does successfully comeback is yet to be seen.
Remember you spent all last week predicting Johnson would not just beat Chisora but KO him. You get things completely wrong even with a mass of evidence in front of you let alone none at all.
Re: Hughie. Ready for Price?
Hughie is good but needs more fights, why rush him? Wilder has had loads of fights and still not stepped it up.

nobody is rushing him or even cares ,the fact is his idiotic trainer said he would be younger than mike Tyson as champion.
Re: Hughie. Ready for Price?
The question is does ross agree with it?
Re: Hughie. Ready for Price?
Hughie has only boxed 3 rounds less than Price in his pro career so far. At the moment Hughie is still a novice learning his craft , the difference between him and Joshua / Price is that still being only 19 he doesn't yet have the power that the other two have to knock the bums he's facing out in a few rounds. Instead he's having to work the body and learn the craft a bit more which I think will help him in the long run. At the moment its far too early for Hughie Fury to be in with Price but I predict that he'll be at that level sooner than people expect.

Would Prices manager put him in with Hughie? I doubt it. They need fighters they can beat;)

chatting to a pikey about a pikey is evidently pointless.

It'll be a lot more pointless.....

Re: Hughie. Ready for Price?
I feel sorry for Price.. I think his confidence is in the toilet .. I think he's done the right thing going to Sauerland..

Absolutely agree, Saurland is my No. 1 promoter having visited Germany twice for his shows. I would rather pay the travel costs than have self inflicted torture at a UK Warren show. I hope Sauerland becomes a top European promoter and gets some UK venues, he certainly treats the customers better than Warren.
Re: Hughie. Ready for Price?
if hughie ever beats price at any point in his career i will be absolutely amazed
id like to see hughie in with someone like sam sam sexton or john macdermot

Another retarded quote. Do you think Fury would take a fight with Price? Either Fury? Not a chance.
Hughie maybe as Price has a name value, if only a very vague one but not Tyson.
Who is Price to Tyson? What value does Price hold to anyone? Hes instantly become the new Audley. He is now having to face fighters ranked about 300 places below Hughie!;D

Maloney didnt want it. He bullshitted about being tied to sky sports when offered a fight.;)
