He's just not on the world level Price, he had a big second round but he fought the wrong fight again. He should have boxed more. Great shame this, where does he go from here?

Good fight. Price was done when Thompson got up in the 2nd. He caught him with his best punch and couldn't put him away. His confidence left him right after
You are talking absolute shit!
Fury was gradually brought through tougher opponents, unbeaten guys, unknown imports. He fought for the English heavyweight title in only his 8th fight and first year as a pro. His team has hope in him.
How do you justify Price going from Sexton then Harrison then Skelton? Thats getting progressivley worse not better!
Firy has fought back from being hurt. Price just lurches forward like a dunce and keeps taking it, either that or he rolls around on his back like a turtle!
I see you're still droning on even after so much time away from this forum, you nonsensical old fool Beanz![]()
Fury got absolutely battered by Mcdermott in the first fight but the one thing we can't question about Fury is his heart after staying in there for 10 rounds. Price gets hit and literally has no fighters instinct. DOES NOT like being hit one bit..at least Wlad was smart enough to realise and adjust so he never ever gets hit.
It's a shame, I thought Price was the better heavy too but alarm bells should have rang as early as him being knocked out in the Olympics by Cameronelli or whatever his name was. Get inside of Price and he's useless.
P.S. I've missed you, Greenbeanz![]()
If you had watched the fight you would have seen that Price threw plenty after being hit numerous times. The fight had more action than all of Fury's bouts put together and the fact that it took Fury 19 rounds to do what Price achieved in one with John McDermott is hardly something to brag about. If you are going to bring up amateur fights then at least be consistent and remember that Price beat Fury before going to the Olympics. If Price is so useless what does that make Fury ?
So blinkered!
Fury fought a younger fresher McDermott just 8 months after turning pro. It took Price 3 years to get to that level...
When they fought in the amateurs, Fury hadn't even had 15 bouts and was only 17! Price was representing England and very experienced and was 22![]()
What makes you think I didn't watch the fight? Is it because you think my point was that Price never threw any punches back which I never once mentioned? lol Some things never change
He has no fighters instinct i.e. Hold, take a knee, spoil, run, relax, don't have that stupid "deer caught in headlights" look on your face etc etc.
His fitness was also absolutely APPALLING! Something I had never associated with Price in the past. Could have had something to do with how much tension he was carrying.
Of course it was. That was glaringly obvious. Remove the fear of getting sparked out and anyone could go hard for more than 4 rounds without stumbling about like a new born giraffe wearing banana skin slippers.
His tank was half empty before he got in the ring.
I really dont know where he goes from here to be honest. The idea that he could rebuild on the quiet (off TV...really?) is romantic but unrealistic.
When God said to the both of us "Which one of you wants to be Sugar Ray?" I guess I didnt raise my hand fast enough
