Prime Butterbean VS David Price who wins and how?

[ross]

Why does everyone say Price has a weak chin? I've seen no evidence of this at all.

You wont until Maloney bites the bullet and puts him in with anyone decent. His last few opponents have got progressively worse and its not by accident.

Like someone else has mentioned, he did get dropped alot in the amateurs but in the amateurs theres no journeymen bums to build a record against, its all fairly evenly matched. Price is learning nothing and his being hyped as the next big thing in the heavies is going to be an embarassment for British boxing to go along with the americans old saying of British heavies as "horizontal".

I have read an interview with Price and he is trying to rubbish rumours that his chin is bad by just passing it off as it was just in the amateurs, then he reels off some fights he got hurt in and I was surprised by how many he mentioned, he made it sound worse.

I can guarantee that Maloney is green with envy about how Furys team are able to test him against decent world rated opponents but hes stuck tentatively pitching Price against terrible, old, tired, British level journey men.

Oh and as for butterbean. Sexton wouldnt have got in to the 4th against him. I remember he came over and ruined Shane Woolas, a british fighter who wasnt great but he still did it quicker than anyone else, including a young Danny Williams.

ahem what is uh 'prime' butterbean?

Oh yeah man fury's chin compared to price's is iron, I mean he totally wasn't nearly decapitated by some non puncher with 5kos to his name...

A better fight would be Butterbean v Haye.

Fury might not be Oliver McCall or Jake La Motta but his team are confident enough in his ability to test him against better opponents, than Sexton, Harrison and Skelton

Are you for real here? Fury hasn't actually been in with a live body other than Chisora. McDermott had him in all sorts of trouble twice, and Price destroyed him in 1. I'm not saying Price is decapitating world beaters, but he hasn't had as many fights as Fury and Fury fights some shockers. How can anyone justify fighting Martin Rogan? Rogan had been inactive for some time and yet Hennessy tells us it's a fight the fans had been begging for. Kevin Johnson is not a world class fighter. To be one, he'd have to throw punches. There is a reason Fury is carefully matched. Fury-Price is a 50-50 fight. I can't see either beating a Klitschko at this stage but I think Price would take Fury's head off.

Only time Butterbean and Prime have been in the same conversation was when he was ordering off the menu at some greasy spoon back in Alabama and asking for extra 'Taters on the side.

Rich Power, Marcelo Nascimento, Derek Chisora and Nevan Pajkic were all unbeaten when Fury fought them. Then you have a world rated opperator like Johnson. Those are all live bodys, unlike the dead ones that Price is unearthing.

Justify fighting Martin Rogan?..... He beat Prices last 2 opponents years ago

Also, before you mention that Sexton beat Rogan, this is what im on about by Price fighting progressively worse opponents.

[Bobthepen]

ross,
Price wants the Lonsdale belt, which he (and I) hold in high regard. Agreed the competition he has faced are dross, but who else can he fight? Fury ducked him and vacated, so that leaves very few options.
If Price is still fighting dross after that, I'll wade in and criticise. Until then, don't hate the player, hate the game.

C'mon dude who had Rich Power, Nascimento and Pajkic fought? And saying Price's opposition getting worse, Fury went from Rich Power to a fighter with a negative record. I give him plenty of credit for Chisora because I din't think he'd win it but the others had padded, unproven records. At this stage, you can't say Fury is fighting world class opposition. Kevin Johnson has proved absolutely nothing at world level other than he can go 12 rounds as a punching bag that moves. I agree Price's last 2 opponents aren't great, but like you said, Fury fought Rogan after Price fought Sexton, and he fought Rogan after running from Price.

If Price and Fury do fight any time soon, I will bring this thread back up laughing my tits off because Fury will win. It wont be what people want to see because Fury is regarded as a clown who punches himself, with no power and no chin. He isnt the next coming of Tyson or Lewis but he will beat Price.

He is vastly more experienced now as a pro than Price and is still young enough that he is improving with each fight.

Who is the best opponent that Price has fought? There are probably at least 3 Fury opponents who could beat them comfortably.

Sexton, Harrison or Skelton are all capable even now of beating Fury. Not so sure Rogan or Maddalone were ever going to test Price and it would not take 12 rounds or a points decision for Price to take care of Johnson.
