Just watched Price talking about Freddie Flintoff.Must admit he comes across as a class act.Hope he wins a world title.
Well it's probably best to wait for the Johnson fight but ill say it as it looks to me now Price will fail hard when he steps up, Skelton got inside easy on price, Povetkin, chisora, Arreola would all get inside just as easy, and stop price who is fragile. Fury might also fail hard, we will see tomorrow a bit more about him I think. But I do sense more durability, and more toughness from fury, also fury can fight inside and out, there's no glaring weakness like with Price I vote fury, for now as I think he would do a bit better at the ropes, price is an embarrassing ko waiting to happen, "glass jawed fraud" will be uttered many times in the general
The bookies have now shortened the odds for Fury vs Price from 3/1 to 2/1. If, as I expect he will tomorrow, Fury beats Johnson they will righly shorten again. Price's head PROPERLY snapped back twice in the first 30 seconds against Skelton. I had no expectation that would happen, so much so I had bet heavily on Price winning and was s***ing myself his glass jaw was unexpectdely going to be exposed in the first round against an old timer. In all honesty he would be well advised to steer clear of Chisora. I can now see why Chisora - allegedly - owned him in sparring. Price doesn't seem to deal well at all with inside pressure fighters. Price was sporting a pretty nice shiner in the box with Bunce after the fight. Chisora has a lot more to his game and is, I think, half his age with a ridiculous hand breaking chin.
i prefer fury he makes me crack up and i love his courage but price is looking so powerful if they fight my hart says fury but me head says price i hope this fight happens
Fury, still a lad and has to mature but an amazing prospect at 24. I think he will be top of the tree at some stage, might not happen at first go because of K2 but he'll get there because youth is on his side. Price, older and more sensible, but I'm still waiting to see him in with a real live opponent that can justify Price>Fury. Just now I say Fury.
Price is probably better, but fury talks a bigger game and has the better CV (and I reckon will do until they both challenge for titles)
I'm eerrring on the side of Price. Fury is funny as you like (where's his cousin who used to post here?) and can bang but Price has the unflustered stability. He wont walk into Fury trap. If they fight in the summer after a couple more bouts then I would be more excited about that fight than I have been in a while. Its actually 50/50. Or 51/49 to price. Its very much a good cop bad cop jobby. I'm glad they have held off until 2013.
I still don't want them to fight each other yet Fury v Vitali and Price v Wladamir could EASILY happen next year, Vitali is old and looking tired and ready to be taken, Wladamir cannot take a price Right hand without being KO'd Yes the Klits would be favorites and rightfully so, but it's not IMPOSSIBLE that one of them comes back with a title round their waist, have the fight then
