Joshua-vs-Molina/Price? Who do you prefer?

[erics44]

I think he would have beaten teper without a doubt

I read the levels of peds in his system was one of the highest in such a test and it was one of the worst failures ever

how teper wasn't banned for life I don't know, the drugs beat Price that day

with Thompson its too hard to say, he definitely had a massive advantage tho

I'm no expert on PEDs , I've never taken them , so I wouldn't know how much effect they would have.
All I would say as far as Thompson goes, don't look at Thompson in those fights, look at Price.
Price was doing his usual stuff early on and you could see with your own eyes, the tank emptying.
I don't think it was anything to do with Thompson, it was Price's shortcomings.

Yes, the teper I had seen before was riddled with peds so my I judgement was flawed

Teper should be banned for life, prison even

[erics44]

They raided tepers car and hotel room after the fight and found a stash of roids

[erics44]

he'd been caught before as well

then look what he goes on to do, end martin rogans career, puts a massive dent in prices potential, think of all of the potential earnings that price has now lost

people actually think that teper would have beaten him anyway, which puts price miles away from world title contention

if teper would have been clean he would have got nowhere near the price fight, never mind knocked him out

Anthony Joshua has admitted that David Price did floor him in a sparring session back in 2010.

Joshua defends his IBF world heavyweight title on December 10 on Sky Sports Box Office against Eric Molina rather than Price, who claimed he knocked him out in what was "probably the worst kept secret in boxing", until now.

"Yes, he dropped me in sparring and I continued training and that's why I am here now," Joshua told Sky Sports.

"In a sense, you have to look at these things as a blessing in disguise because in boxing, a lot of people get dropped, get hurt and then go on and do great things.

"A lot of people get scared and go into a shell, but I just learnt from my mistakes and just carried on with my career."

Price brought the knockdown to the forefront of boxing's attention in August when he put his name forward to be Joshua's next world title challenger, having claimed to have kept it quiet because his British rival "was an up-and-coming potential boxer" before saying he "wanted to protect him and didn't want to go around boasting about it".

The Liverpudlian called for the fight once the date at the Manchester Arena had been announced, only to see Molina confirmed as the opponent.

Joshua made it clear that the sparring incident did not force him to avoid an all-British battle, and insists he is taking on the 'Drummer Boy' for professional, not personal reasons.

"Many, many years on now we are here, but that's all hype in my opinion," he said.

"So when I am looking at reality, I looked at what was right for me and thought Molina was a tougher fight.

"That's all it came down to. I wasn't judging this fight on how many Twitter followers I can gain from this or how many re-tweets I can get.

"I was looking at what is the best fight for my development, someone who has been in with better fighters and yes, Eric Molina is a better opponent for me."

Molina pushed WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder nine rounds last year and heads to Manchester on the back of an impressive win over two-weight world champion Tomasz Adamek, who challenged Vitali Klitschko back in 2011.

Joshua: Price did floor me

[Primo Carnera]

That's the thing about Joshua, he doesn't play any bullshit games.
"Yeah, Price floored me."
"Yeah, I got a criminal record "
"Yeah Whyte beat me in the ams."
Doesn't hide anything or try to justify or sugar coat it.
But it was all a long time ago, and he KNOWS what he's all about now.
He may not the greatest ever, he may not be the greatest now, but he is fucking genuine.
