Fury, Price, Charr, Wach, etc, are all well protected HW's.
There's a reason they all had/have perfect records and that's simply because they hadn't/haven't fought a Klitschko.
Love the Klitschko's or hate them for there fight selections now, but they got to where they are by fighting the best that was there.
Fury will crumble under the first decent right hand his pikey chin receives.
Price will likey wilt too, but his defences seem much better than Fury so maybe, just maybe, he can make us proud.
You say tomato,
‘n I say …… it correctly.
I'm not saying that by not fighting a Klitschko he's protected, I'm saying that he's protected by fighting below par fighters.
Sam Sexton isn't a threat and never looked likely to ever be one. Audely Harrison?? Need I say more?
Oh but I shall! Matt Skelton? Forty fucking five! Next fight? Tony Thompson 41! Althought Thompson should be a much harder test, so good to see progression.
Now I actually love Price. I think he's got talent, but the same thing is happening to him that happened to James DeGale, they're fighting opponents below there level.
But I guess we are all entitled to our opinions. Personally I'd see him trying to fight Chisora, Fury, Haye, but none of them look likely!
Thompson will be a decent fight even though if he wins he'll be beating a guy that's already been stopped twice by the guy he's trying to get a fight with.

Hardly fair on Price. Thompson is borderline top ten heavy. Not many fighters step up to that level after 15 fights. It's not Price's fault that the domestic scene is awful. I respect him for wanting a Lonsdale belt outright, even if he fights dross like Sexton and Skelton.

Id like to see either Price or, if it has to be, Fury, fight Chris Arreola should he come through with a win in his next fight. Matter of fact I think anyone who wants a Klitschko would be best served to take him on first. He's big, tough as hell, and he can fight a bit. If anyone has a prayer against either Klitscho they'd need to have the tools to get by him, but in the process it would really help a guy like Price to prepare and find out what he has at the next level. Arreola would at the very least stick around through the mid rounds and keep throwing punches. Neither Price of Fury has had to deal with this, perhaps through no fault of their own. I'd actually be surprised if Fury could beat Arreola at all come to think of it.
TBF Price is making a significant step up in quality fighting Thompson, he has fought for the World Title against Klit in the last 12 months, where as Price has been learning his trade domestically....fighting fighters with varying styles and abilities are all part of a fighters learning curve and that's not protection for me vendetto!
