Skelton v price is a waste of time

How the **** do you come to the conclusion that price appears chinny, was that with your crystal ball, mark my words not even Vladimir will test it, price is a more accurate puncher, and his finishing instinct is viscous.

 

It's just one of them things everyone keeps saying, so it becomes "fact"

personally I think we need to wait and see i mean he's seemed fine so far.

 

At 6weeks notice it aint to bad a fight, if it was announced for march time then fair enough it is a cack fight.

 

I'm disappointed his next opponent is so poor, but what were his other options if he wants to defend the British Title to win it outright?

Haye is above british level,
Fury, would have been good, but they are having trouble making that fight happen
Chisora, Banned
Sexton, Harrison, Mcdermot, and dallas, He's already beaten
Whyte and Cornish, Probably too early for these two to take on Price
So all he is left with is;
Towers
Rogan
Sprott
Skelton

Out of these four Towers has a fight lined up, Sprott is coming off 4 loses, so really he is down to Skelton or Rogan.

 

Also Sprott is banned.

 

Well, getting stopped as an amateur doesn't bode well. He got hurt a fair few times too and, so far, has adapted his pro style to be safety first.

It's hard to deny he's not the sturdiest, and generally he's not been clipped by anyone with sufficient dig to test the theory.

 

Is that because of his recent losses or something else?

 

Pushed that ref, got into a bit of trouble for that. Also he is gonna get a rematch with Gurber apparently.

 

Price sure enjoys his stay busy fights. Hes had nothing but stay busy fights.

 

It's better than a kick up the arse. At least he's being active and it's a genuine step up.

 

It's not a stay busy fight, it's so he can win the the lonsdale belt outright.
There isn't really another available option right now.
I think a good path for him would be;
Skelton in december
Fury early next year
Shane Cameron or Bermane Stiverne for a commonwealth title defence
then a world title shot or a bout against an american in america to raise his profile there late next year or early 2013.

 

Is Price ever going to step up? These fights are telling us nothing about him

 

price vs skelton in december and fury vs someone in december should both be postponed and put Fury and Price in a phone booth together instead

 

It's better than Audley, I'll say that for it. Still not inspiring mind.
