    Technically better, stronger and physically more developed too, he stops Fury IMHO, I will say this though, I rate Fury and he has improved but I just feel Pricey is gonna become the best heavyweight in the world in the next 2 years ;-)

    Pricey wins inside 3 rounds he's more accurate powerful and composed and used his jab and back hand fantastically in his last two fights against good opponents which is why I think Tyson fury will vacate the titles by saying he's moving on to the world stage , in order to prolong his winning record and then fight pricey for the world title that he will win in the next 18 / 24 months . By the way did anyone else notice fury last night gesture to the ref just before the ridiculous stoppage ? Almost like he prompted the ref if you ask me

    I`m going for Price at present, Tyson has shown improvement i was impressed with his jab output last night but he gets wreckless and that wrecklessness will fall right into Price`s Big right hand because Price is good at working opponents weaknesses out. Price is technically and defencively better than Fury.

    Not much chance of this because pricey will keep him on the end of his far superior jab so there will be no tear up which Tyson can do as you say but to date only against smaller men with very little desire to win last nights opponent was a joke who actually nearly derailed tysons plans

    Price would **** Fury.

    It's that simple IMO, and I dont even rate Price that much

    Price is the future of the heavyweight division. He would stop Fury inside 5 rounds. Fury needs atleast 18 months development, and work on his defence for this fight. Priceof course also needs to step his level of competition up.

    :lol: The bit about against smaller men i don't agree with he's fought guys around his size before (not many are 6'9) and little desire? McDermott/Chisora came to win at the least!. I mean who's Price fought of any quality? no one. So to mock Fury's opponents is very rich indeed.

    Price can get lazy with the jab and fact is we ain't seen him hit in the pro's yet. Let's see how he fairs with Big John. Dallas was a easy fight IMO. Like Karate kids snapping cheap bits of wood.

    Fury, for all his flaws, is underrated on this forum. It wasn't long ago the consensus here was that he'd be outclassed by Chisora and look what happened. Price has a dodgy chin and has fought nobody. We have no idea how he'll react when the going gets tough.

    I'm going with Fury until I see otherwise.

    That's a great point. I think people look at Price's last two exhibitions and assume it will be same against Fury.

    Look at Price and you can tell by looking at him that his chin has a "Made in Taiwan" lable on it. Simply a glass chin and it will shatter at the first sign of a flush shot.

    fury seems tougher to me. price hasn't been remotely tested yet. he has a reputation of having weak chin and fury can hit hard enough to exploit that. price is the better fighter but i'd pick fury to ko him in the mid rounds.

    I genuinely hope Tyson goes over to work with Manny Steward for a another camp in the meantime. He's really improved over the last 12 months.

    i dont expect good footwork from a 6'9 250lb + man but fury on the backfoot is useless. can be hit by anyone even 900lb chisora clocked him a few times, if he got better defensively he could do ok, his jab is quite good and show a nice right hand few uppercuts and left hook. so offesively lookin better.

    Fury has no power because he doesn't punch properly and has no defence. Price though can be hurt is better in the skill department. Chisora is terrible and was giving Fury a lot of trouble with the hooks he barely threw as well!
