    MONEY!

    Had a nice sum on the early KO!

    and,of course, I hope Skelton isnt hurt.

    Time to retire buddy, had a good,solid career, but he shouldnt be taking those shots at 45

    That is what is so exciting about British Heavyweight boxing. Most of the fights dont last long and someone gets Ko'd early

    Price is nothing special

    Will never be champ. Fury has a brighter future imo

    Skelton came to fight, got overpowered.

    I think Price needs to learn to control the distance a little better though; Skelton bored in quite a few times with Price just allowing him to do so. The finish was good from Price...good to see a tall heavyweight actually going to the body, and nice to see him having the presence of mind to throw the body shots.

    There are a lot of questions Price needs to answer, and to call on him to fight Wlad is ridiculously premature, but I'll say this: he'll give Wlad a much better argument than the likes of Wach, Mormeck etc.

    I'd like to see him fight Chisora next. Price really could do with a few solid rounds under his belt.

    IB, this is amazingly descriptive. I had to work today & missed the fight, but it feels like I just actually watched it!

    Thanks.

    Next time I miss a fight, I'm gonna' get a looped recording of some crowd cheering, then blast it from my speakers while reading your RbR. It will be like those old-timey radio broadcasts. :cool:


    - No big surprised with the outcome, of course.

    Price getting Skelton out in 2 rounds, when it took the highly rated Pulev 4 rounds is impressive, I guess. Price would smash Pulev though, so it's no surprise he did better against the same opponent.

    Fury is next for Price, assuming Kingpin brings no surprises.
