Agreed with the real fans comment, but don't think wlads loss to purity can be equated to this, it was in the later stages of a fight he dominated and don't think he actually went down in that fight. Price should try to emulate wlad's style tho, say what you want about it its effective as hell and I think maybe a whole fifty punches been landed on him over the last seven or eight years

I hear ya but this is boxing. It was his 15th fight. Many greats have been laid out early in their career.
He got caught with a punch he didn't see by a southpaw much like Wlad did from that southpaw dragged off the golf course. Shit happens man. Its part of the sports fabric. Price needs learn from it, dust himself off and get back on the horse. Oh I'm not a fan of his. The only heavyweight I like is Perez who at present is to busy smashing Irish chicks.

What can I say fanboys will disappear.

All the shit I got for supporting fury. :)

Inbf Price fights Audry

Didn't see that coming.

Fury is shit and has no class. Price will be back and could box rings around him.

Punching yourself in the face is a pretty foolish thing to do. Fury is well on the way to putting himself under the dictionary definition for fool.

I agree with the first bit, but things really don't look good for Price after that loss. He was KO'ed by exactly the kind of shot Fury is actually capable of landing:-\ I was really surprised that his punch resistance is THAT bad.

This is a monster upset. Fury-Thompson has to happen now.

Apparently Thompson is a washed up bum. Price will be eager to fight for a rematch and Fury is fighting Cunningham.

Right. I like Fury over Cunningham on size. How good does Wladimir look now that he completely thumped Thompson?

Just watched this. Bit pissed

Not completely shocked by this


He can come back from this but mentally will be tough.

He shoud take immediate rematch and avenge

Fury will fuck him over

Fury is somewhat shit, but after tonight's laughable performance, I'd back him to knock Price out with considerable ease.

Price was knocked silly by a short cuff of a punch thrown by a non puncher. A heavyweight who can't take a punch like that is going nowhere.

Reading what you UK cats wrote I thought Price was all that and a bag of chips. Haye is still the man in GB.

If Fury gets through Cunnigham , he should fight Thompson.

He'll probably do so, and would likely beat THompson as well... But, he'll still be dogshit;D

How old was he then? Exactly. That's when he was sloppy. Like I said the subject at hand is price and lack of skill. Thompson is proper shite

You dont have an amateur career like Price with lack of skill. He made a huge fundamental mistake yesterday but his boxing ability is not without merit and Thompson is not a bum.

Are you sure Thompson isn't a bum? Cos Tyson fury is ranked higher I'm sure and that makes him a bum

Exactly. Haye rules the divison in the uk but he needs to fight more heavyweights and start taking risks.

Your deluded if you think Maloney is going to risk ANYTHING with Price after last night!

Did you see his face?

He must have realised this was a risk? Maybe he bought in to the hype himself? I bet he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the shape of Thomson on the scales;D I bet he puked when he watched his investment rolling around on his back then do the khan wobble when he got ;D

He cant go back in with Thompson, not imediately and shouldnt have been in there with him in the first place.

I said its a massive jump in class from fighting british level journeymen that were retired to so eone whos just challenged for a title. He needs to be learning from tougher journeymen but thats it, his style is so basic and amateurish, he needs to be weened out of it. Look at Fury, hes leagues above Price, has learnt how to deal with being hurt, is fighting tough experienced opponents. Maloney hasnt got a fucking clue. Everyone knew Price was chinny. If you look at the little video clip of the shot that Fury dropped Price with when Fury was only 17 it was the same kind of shot;)

Other than setting Price back 6 months I dont see that this changes the landscape much. Everyone was wondering what would happen when he got a clump, now we know. Some of us seem to fall under the impression that once someone is exposed as having a shakey chin its game over. Its far from the case, you dont have too look far for precedent.

I still think Price irons Fury out. Fury would beat Thompson on points. The only relevant fight in that triangle is Fury V Price. No ones going to win a World title against Thompson.

Price wont come back from this. He will be the new Audley. Gun shy!

Maloney will spend money on giving him a few more bums to try and get some confidence back but as soon as he steps it up the reality that Price just isn't as good as Fury will hit home and Price will be crawling and rolling round on the floor again then doing Amir Khans dance and Maloney will drop him like a sack of shit;)

Finally we agree on something where Fury/Price are concerned. If the reality is that you're not as good as Tyson Fury then yes I'd give this boxing lark the Spanish.

Price isnt good for Maloney.

Frank Maloney had to be rushed to hospital last night with a suspected heart attack!

Get some tougher fighters Frank. Try and sign Fury;D

Hopefully Frank Maloney is OK. I think he knows enough about boxing to do what is best for Price.

Fury has no chin either, he's just being protected against non-punchers.

Fury has been dumped on his arse before and got back up to win. Some fighters go down surprisingly easy but if they can get back up, no problem. If they go down easy and can't continue, like Price last night, then they are going to struggle. Wouldn't even say I'm overly impressed with Price's power, he is a big guy and has some good skills. Not sure what he was doing last night waving his left around in Thompsons face then trying to fire in a quick straight right. Something tells me they underestimated Thompson.

Finally caught it after probs with download lastnight. That was a very ugly ko, def more a eqillibrium shot more than a flush chin shot...but at the end of the day it doesn't matter. Says much more about Price and Tony Thompson was the same ol Thompson

Price better find something to do with that left hand. Stop pawing it and pick it up, and tighten up when he goes in to flurry along the ropes, very wide open with head in front of everything. Very gangly in there. Long way back but honestly I have more respect for a 'prospect' that will step up competition this early and roll the dice then I do one who wallows in mediocrity pounding out stunt men and cans to pad a record and really not learn alot at all.

So is this the upset of the year so far? There are 7 pages on here with everyone trying to decide if Price would get the KO in the 2nd or the 5th. Even @Fenster got it wrong.

Haha just watched the fight...ridiculous. Price vs Fury could still be a solid fight, but Thompson isn't a huge puncher. Last time Wlad fought Thompson, Wlad treated him like he didn't even belong in the ring with him. I wonder what is next for Thompson.

Maloney hasn't been able to get David Price enough fights and rounds during the past several years.

Price has been a pro since 2008, and yet has fewer than 1/3 the rounds Tyson Fury and others have had. Wilder is fighting soft opposition, but at least he is fighting often.

When Wladimir Klitschko was knocking everybody out in an early round, he fought 14 times in 1997. Mike Tyson fought 17 times in one year when he was doing the same.

When Wlad had been a pro as long as Price, he had over 35 fights and was WBO heavyweight champion.

Price isn't as sharp as he should be because of not getting in enough rounds, he should have been able to avoid that punch yesterday.

Cus D'Amato: "Inactivity ruins a fighter"

It look like a love tap instead of a KO punch. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DmBbUiSrkKQ

A love tap that perforated his ear drum.

Just ignore how staggeringly wrong the other predictions were :p.

;D Thats a video waiting to happen right there

Tony is a funny guy. I really like him, hopefully he gets a chance to fight Fury and make some more wonga before he retires.
