David Price v Tony Thompson- Saturday Night- Boxnation- Fight/Chat Thread

[smashup]

Price will smash him to the floor inside 2 rounds i think...

I think Price hits harder than Wlad and his right hook and uppercut is fierce.

Price needs a war in one of his next few fights... even if he lost so what.

Didn't do Haye any harm at a similar stage in his career.

Im hoping Thompson has a go early as that surely is his only chance, i wanna see Price backed up and hurt.

Thompson seemingly out of shape. He weighed in at a career high , nearly 20 pounds above his last fight

That says it all.

Plus it's all looser talk from Thompson.

I actually want price to spark him in one now.

I can't find any good value for that though. Unless you backing a surprise Thompson upset or it going the distance there seems little point betting on this one. Not that it will stop anyone.

i dunno 4s or 5s for a KO in most of the rounds isnt too bad, i got 8/1 on the 5th

and its looking like an early KO now, just need to get the round right

ive got 2nd and the 5th now

[Beanz]

Thompson taking Price into the late rounds seems to be where the value is. With Price winning in rounds 9-12. Or a knockout in the first 60 secs with Price at 16/1 and Thompson at 200/1. If Price has a chin that is as vulnerable as people think this is the fight to bet against him in . @ross?

@Beanz - we get this card beginning Saturday afternoon @ around 3:30 PM ET here in the States, i'll definitely check out the main event.

At Liverpool, England (Wealth TV): David Price vs. Tony Thompson, 10 rounds, heavyweights; Kevin Satchell vs. Luke Wilton, 12 rounds, for Satchell's British and Commonwealth flyweight titles; Darren Hamilton vs. Steve Williams, 12 rounds, for Hamilton's British junior welterweight title; Adil Anwar vs. TBA, 8 rounds, junior welterweights

As for who wins, I really don't know how good Price is, but I do know that Thompson is basically a fucking punching bag. If Price can't get by Tony then he's going nowhere as a HW.

cheers

Dreaful form of Thompson to show up that heavy. I think he knows it's his last big paycheck. Price should end him in 1-2 but Thompson doesn't have a very active style anyway. If Thompson can keep from getting hurt & just starting to trade because his legs are gone he could last 6 at the most, but this isn't the Tony Thompson that fought Wlad, I know that much.

Would LOVE to see Helenius take on Price after this, that would be one hell of a fight and I like Price to win by KO.


As for the Price-Thompson match I say Price dusts him in 3-4...Thompson's defense and decent chin should help him out a little bit, but we all know Price will gun for the KO.

Well, like I said, if Thompson has any ambition but coming in 18lb heavier than his last fight doesnt look good!

If Price has absolutely any trouble with Thompson hes not going anywhere but Thompson isnt here to fight so you shouldnt have to worry

[GuyIncognito76]

What time's the Price fight?

[ross]

Fights like this where they are clearly taking a journeyman type to build a record on, they should offer the opponent a bonus for each round he completes and or a knockout win. Thompson was probably retired in his head, someones offered him a guaranteed approx £40,000 to just turn up and hes done a little bit of training, enough to make sure he doesnt get hurt but at the site of any danger from Price hes going to find a way out and it wouldnt surprise me if its by disqualification or staying on his stool between rounds with an injury.
