    I think his boxing career is finished. He can carry on, with everyone wondering about his stamina or what the problem is between his ears, but he can't take a punch. If you can't take a punch in the heavies and stamina is a problem then find something else to do. Stamina is fixable sometimes but a weak chin?
    He sounds like a fighter who wants to go as far as he can but doesn't realize he's there now.

    He got beat twice by a top 10 heavyweight...I hardly think he's finished.

    Price's stamina issues come not from punching himself out, but by his body being tense. Good fighters and great fighters have taught themselves to relax in the ring without allowing their opponent to tee off on them. You can be in amazing shape and if you're tense or your mind is racing and you're not breathing properly then you're going to gas out quickly. I think Price is tense because he's loading up on his right and he's a little anxious about getting hit. Guys can get in that panic mode and gas themselves out really quick but that can be fixed IF the fighter is willing to work on that.

    Price just needs to learn to relax in the ring and the only way to do that is hard sparring. He's going to have to get in there and spar and spar and spar some more and eventually he's going to get better or he's going to have to hang 'em up.

    Hope you are right.
