What proof that Price is chinny?

looks ok to me,not the best not the worst,but he seems to have good boxing skills and a big punch,which counts for a ****ing lot as a heavyweight.
he is the best heavy in britain at the mo,apart from haye and maybe just maybe chisora,but i think he would beat chisora

 

He went down a few times as an amateur but as a pro he hasn't had his chin tested so we don't really know for sure. He is doing well as a pro and if he has a week chin i am sure we'll find out about it sooner or later.

 

I don't think he does.. It's probably just the stigma of his amateur days.. People can improve.. Look at Khan!

Not really sure what conclusions can be drawn from the above, but it's the only time he's been visibly stunned as a pro.

 

Took a free shot at the chin unexpectedly and withstood it...

 

:yep

 

That's what I took from it too, some people think that he was all over the place. Don't see that myself.

 

Wicked punch to end that fight. He has devastating power that fighters don't get up from.

 

He doesn't appear to be a naturally gifted defensive fighter, he seemed to hang his chin out a little bit last night. I've got a feeling he'll have/need a few rough moments in his career before he sorts out that side to his game.

Getting dropped and stopped a few times never did Wlad any harm.

 

Chins do not grow muscles, Price is going to have to be aware of that. He does seem a bit too upright, he needs to get a bit cuter defensively, but offensively he does seem impressive, very impressive indeed.

 

From what i remember Price was given 1 or 2 standing eight counts but not actually dropped though i stand corrected if wrong.In the amateurs a fighter gets a standing eight count if he takes a solid hit so its different from the pros.As an amateur Price was in with some proper good punchers the Russian Timurziev and Mago Abdusalimov whos knocking everyone out in the pros and he survived fine so that at least says that even if he has a dodgy chin he has the skills to overcome big punchers.

 

It's the just nature of being an unbeaten prospect. You start looking beyond his possitves and speculate on what's going to stop him at a higher level.
He has a question mark over his chin, so until he takes a clean hit from a known banger this will continue. There are, of course, some fans with an agenda who will continue with this chinny line throughout his career regardless of who catches him clean.
Basically haters gonna hate, the rest await to see him develop either way.

 

BOOM!

Pretty much sums up boxing fans.

 

That doesn't show a bad chin....a bad chin means that when you get hit you go down and stay there. Prices best defensive tools are his height and his jab...if he fights tall and sticks out a ramrod he can mitigate a large amount of the risk coming his way.

Some of the greatest fighters in history might have had cardboard chins but we would never know as they were good enough never to get caught clean.
