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!). 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.
