    I cant believe people are still backing Price!

    He is not a fighter. He's a very good puncher but he's certainly not a fighter. Put anyone in with him who is going to stand and punch him back and he will give up again.

    Joshua looking great knocking over some journeymen that managed to last a bit longer with an 18 year old proves nothing. He is learning nothing. Im not going to criticise him for his level of opposition as he's only just turned pro and wont be stepping much up within the next few bouts but when he does, you will see how ponderous he is.

    Hughie will get stronger and that power will come. Hes only just turned 19 for fuck sakes im sure you will all admit that you wee stronger at 24 than you were at 18/19

    Hughie may have a hood chin, he's never been dropped and fought world class amateurs where he won gold at the world juniors. The one thing id add to Hughie, is Tysons spite. Tyson wants to hurt people. I liked watching him trying to get the extra punches in against Abell.

    Oh and let me go ahead and post your immediate reaction
    "But Pulev beat Thompson and Abell knockeddown Pulev and Fury stopped Abell"



    and I'll respond with the simple fact that Tyson Fury fought Joey Abell instead of someone good, it's not like the big oaf didn't have options, but whatever we all know he's really hiding from Wlad. Tyson Fury is hiding from Wlad because he's scared and that's why he's talking so much.

    Whether or not Hughie becomes a bigger puncher is yet to be seen. It's possible, of course, considering his age but it's not a given. Time will tell.

    If Joshua is destroying the same men inside 6 minutes that Fury can't hurt in 6 rounds it would suggest that Joshua is a MUCH bigger puncher than Fury. That's a fact. It may also suggest that Joshua is much more talented and superior to Fury. That is not a fact yet. Time will tell.

    Price might not be able to take it but he sure as fuck can give it. He didn't become a non-dangerous walkover job for any prospect just because he failed against Thompson. He has the power to chin out any heavyweight in the world (apart from Oliver McCall).

    Why can't he learn from experience? Did Fury not learn from his loss to Fat John McDermott? He came back a better fighter and righted it. Price could be back among the top guys within a year.

    When Fury got the decision against McDermott he didnt fall apart. He fought the english title holder only 8 months after turning pro (it took Price 3 years to get to that level!). Then Fury knocked him out in the rematch. What did Price do better against Thompson?

    Price is now irrelevant. He's been shown up as someone who hasn't got the stomach for pro boxing. Bit like Tony Bellew. Must be Liverpool. Any sportsman from there seems to get filled full of bull and then is full of themselves.

    As for punch power, im sure Frank Bruno had more power than Larry Holmes.....

    No, he fought Abell because Wlads most dangerous opponent pulled out twice and fucked him around.

    That argument does nothing but show you just how fucking dumb Tyson Fury is. Apparently he was not aware of David Haye's M.O.

    Also it begs the question: "Fury was ready for Haye, but NOT ready for someone like Thompson? So he had to go with Abell?"

    Don't hurt yourself attempting to explain that

    McDermott had been walloped half-a-dozen times before he beat Fury. The point is Fury cameback after learning from it. If you can gain experience from losing to a man that was never good enough to go beyond English level, you can comeback from losing to a world-rated fighter that only Wlad Klitschko had beat.

    Whether or not Price does successfully comeback is yet to be seen.

    Remember you spent all last week predicting Johnson would not just beat Chisora but KO him. You get things completely wrong even with a mass of evidence in front of you let alone none at all.

    Hughie is good but needs more fights, why rush him? Wilder has had loads of fights and still not stepped it up.

    I do agree that fury and his promoter want nothing to do with tony the tiger.

    Fury is good and he must be better than david price when you look at the opponents they have faced but he wants no part of an old dangerous fighter in tony thompson.

    I'm glad you agree with me

    However, who has Fury fought that poses as much of a threat as Thompson? Chisora? Johnson? Cunningham? None of those guys are as good as Thompson

    To be fair these fighters are not that far off the level of Thompson.

    Yeah....yeah they are. Cunningham hasn't proven much at heavyweight and he wasn't all that powerful of a cruiserweight. Kevin Johnson never lets his hands go. Dereck Chisora is mentally unstable. Tony Thompson at least ACTS like a professional. He shows up to every fight, he's always in decent shape, he has only ever been stopped twice (both by Wladimir) which means he is competitive, and he's not afraid of taking seemingly dangerous fights and actually trying to win them.

    I think Fury beats him.

    I feel sorry for Price.. I think his confidence is in the toilet .. I think he's done the right thing going to Sauerland..
