    Back tracking slightly when Skelton tried to rough him up - but squirming definitely not mate ! Got a few shots off early on but that was to be expected ! Said from day one - first heavy right price lands it's over ! Nothing in that fight changed anything !

    Price looks great when there's nothing coming back.

    He will never hold a world title, mark my words.

    You're discounting the fact Price's chin is made out of glass. I've heard many times of here that Fury is also chinny, complete cobblers. Fury has been downed with flash knock downs, but his resistance is very very good, he takes a shot very akin in the way Froch does.

    I've already put a substantial amount on Fury, easy money.

    I agree he is relying on power - but I honestly think that will be enough for fury !

    Skelton did bum rush him, but didnt exactly land anything meaningful, the best he did was tee off a couple of shots when Prive was on the ropes with the ear muffs on.

    What will be interesting to see is how Price does against a higher level fighter who just walks him down.

    :rofl

    Some fantastic overreactions in this thread!! First off, what's the point in the OP? Bookies in changing odds shocker.

    I enjoyed the Price looked 'dreadful' quote. He got caught by a few punches, automatically meaning he will be KO'd by Chisora. The best was Fury now KO'ing him in 2 rounds though. Yes because Fury really fights in a similar vein to Skelton doesn't he?

    If Price is going to lose, it will be to a high quality pressure fighter or someone like a Klitscko who is far more advanced in their career than him. So that discounts both Fury & Chisora then, unless you're overwhelmed by bias or just not that clued up on boxing. But I have to say, I've enjoyed the hysterics and overreaction.

    Fury hasn't faced a genuine puncher yet.

    Just watched fury v pajkic again that's anything but a flash down ! To be fair he came back well - but if price lands the same shot its game over ! And yeah price didn't have best chin in the amateurs - but do you really class fury as a big puncher ?

    He's enough of a puncher to end Price :think

    Because after Fury beats Kingpin the odds will plummet you plum. You haven't grasped the concept of trading I take it :patsch

    He has that awkward stiff legged, head back defence when hes attacked...thats fine and dandy against a smaller fighter but someone who is taller than he is will have the lad in real trouble. Power isn't everything, look at Earnie Shavers, if you can't box on the back foot when put under any sort of pressure then you are in real trouble against just a decent fighter.

    I can't see Price winning a world title, he's got "traditional horizontal British heavyweight" written all over him.
