    Yawn Yawn Yawn. Im so bored of this Price chin is shite cos he got stopped in the amatuers arguemen. He is undeateded and the British Champion and hes never had any problems as a pro so far. Why support him and let him deveop as a pro rather than try to bring him down with idiotic threads.

    ye i dont know how anyone can question his chin he got slammed on the chin in his first pro fight with his hands down free shot he seemed to take that well enough as for the cammarelle stoppage its the amateurs an he felt the shot it was a great shot an he got caught with a few against a world class amateur as for the stoppage was premature but that happens in the amateurs hes much better conditioned as a pro an not seen him troubled yet as a pro no suspect chin at all furys got a suspect chin been rocked a few times

    My suggestion that the Fury dropped him several times but contrary to this he did not accept his failure so ha has the passions to win the competition by all means this is called the great determination.

    Chisora got laid out in the amatuers and everyone was saying what a good chin he has, Price will just have to avoid taking 5 punch combos to the chin like Chisora did.

    09:55 - First pro fight where he get caught as clean as you like after losing his gumsheild. He was staggered but recovered well and delivered one hell of a KO

    I've seen him rocked and stopped in the ams on more than one occasion, so frankly I'm not buying that he has a "great chin". It might be decent and it might have got better as he has filled out more...who knows? But it is a big question mark in my opinion, in a similar way to how it was when Khan turned pro.

    But I have been impressed with Price so far and he seems like a sound lad too. Hopefully he proves me wrong and his chin is fine. Punch resistance certainly can improve and weight and natural development will play a part. Afterall Tua was stopped as an amateur and look at his chin as a pro.

    I remember Steve bunce saying that Chisora got stopped in the amateurs. We all know he is one of the most durable out there so I wouldn't worry about Price his chin will hold up just fine

    the reason why i asked is because on the top level, you need a good chin or an extremly good defense. his defense isnt all that so he will be getting caught.
    everytime i have watched him fight at the very top, he gets stopped.

    for those that are saying that anyone would be stopped by those punches, i disagree. some big guys like foreman have walked through bombs by some of the biggest punchers.
