That was boneheaded stupid. I hope they didn't ruin that young man's career. They didn't even damage Tyson Fury that early...
So: Fury vs. Thompson?
Tyson Fury was fighting better opponents earlier in his career than Price. He fought McDermot after only being a pro 8 months, ok some felt he lost but he fought him again and deffinitly beat him. Fury has learnt the hard way whereas Price was protected for a reason.
But Price fought McDermot after 12 fights, not that much difference between Fury and his 8 pro fights. Plus Price ko'd McDermot in the first round....
It took Price 3 years to get to McDermot. Fury fought him in his first year as a pro when McDermot still wanted to fight

I don't think it made much difference. But then again, Price is only in his 15th fight. He shouldn't have been in there, at this time, with Thompson... McDermot is no Thompson. Not at all.
