    Price just like Fury should just try to become mandatory challenger to the K brothers and then just give it a try. Mandatory challengers collect $1.5-2.5 million so it will be worth his while.

    He may get lucky with a win and go down in history, or if he still loses he will learn more about himself and what to work on that than fighting 10 C level guys like Skelton.

    There's no shame in potentially losing to a future HOF fighter. None.

    Well Price want's to win the lonsdale belt outright, and fair enough it's prestigious in british boxing, after that he'll take on a couple guys and then he'll basically be in position for a shot.

    I think it'll be a really interesting fight when it comes about, Price looks the goods doesn't he? but you know one punch can derail it all.

    I have no problems with Skelton as the opponent because of the fast turnaround. A staybusy workout that delivers the belt done this fast is fine.

    I really hope Johnson's been in constant training prior to getting the go ahead for the Fury fight. He better not have just come for the paycheck with only 4 weeks preparation cause this has the making of proper fight.

    All I can tell from this really is that he looks relatively lean which is a start.

    I hope for the best Johnson possible

    If Fury can't get past that then we know where he's at

    I believe Price would beat Poevetkin that showed up at Huck fight, and i also agree that price is not ready for Wlad!

    I think that Price would have a good shot at beating Povetkin right now.

    Huck is at least two levels above Audley and Sexton, his two best wins.

    Huck, at heavyweight, is about as good as sexton

    no no no no no no no no just ****ing no..

    price is a ****ing novice..hes been spoonfed and rightly so because like i said hes a novice..povotkin is a really good boxer..what he has been lacking is comitment by the looks of him..an inshape povotkin would give price fits.and huck for that matter...

    and for the record sexton would be ass raped by huck ffs..

    the world is going ****ing crazy i swear to god

    The pressure must be enormous on Fury to perform vs. Kingpin, i.e. to get the knockout. Johnson knows this and will probably turns this into a stinker, hoping to tire out Fury.

    Anyways, this is a good matchup and great for Fury at this point in his career.
