    Kingpin is his best opponent so far and he looked great. Like Dwyer said, it's Fury who made the fight look easy.

    Alot of Price fans are ****ing idiots,sitting on boxrec masturbating over that KO % ... It's not all about one punch KO power,look at Ali ... not considered a huge puncher but did alright for himself! Byrd,Young,Corbett,Ellis ... ****ing Vitali himself.Price comes along and suddenly you get all these casual fans that seem to think massive power makes a boxer.
    It's the HW division for **** sake,they're all capable of knocking eachover out (unless said fighter has an iron chin ofcourse,which Price does not).

    Fury has better hand speed,more punch variety,moves around the ring with alot more grace,better durability,would also give him the edge in stamina ... Price has an edge in power and a more extensive amateur background,the fact Fury is so underrated in comparison is a bit of a joke really not helped by the mass of casual fans that latch onto Price(due to his power and power only)if he didn't have that ... what's to get excited about?

    David Price claimed on Thursday he would have succeeded where Tyson Fury failed by finishing Kevin Johnson last weekend, and the Brit insisted a showdown with Fury "is going to happen".

    It's all he cares about himself,his power and his fabled KO ratio! It's going to bite him on the ****ing arse oneday when he hits someone and it doesn't have the desired effect.

    I really like Fury... he's my favourite current Heavyweight besides Chisora, and if he can get his shot against an ageing Vitali before Haye does, I give him a very real chance to pull off the upset.

    Well.. I wouldn't call it a flash knockdown, but he took the overhand right that Pajkic winged from about 3 weeks before the fight pretty well. If anyone got caught by that they were going to go down though in my opinion. He'll be a world champion within 3 years. People forget the lad is 24. He's got 14 years left if he looks after himself.

    Ive said it before and ill say it again. Price vs fury will not come down to power. It Will come down to heart ,stamina and work rate. Fury has more of all three over the long distance. Plus hes a born fighter (gypo). Someone a few posts back said when price hits someone and they dont fall over, hes in trouble. I totally agree and that person is tyson.

    I agree mate,Fury isn't going to be scared of Price and his fabled power.
    He'll take it to him from the opening bell IMO,Jab his way inside and do the damage ... if Skelton was able to hang about and do a bit of work,Fury should have no trouble whatsoever in doing so,he also hits harder than Skelton does.

    Or any other world level heavyweight tbh.

    With Price's glass jaw [it defies belief that it will magically have improved since he was a relatively old 26 year old amateur] it kind of makes sense why Maloney has been feeding him old timers.

    But to be honest, now with Maloney's latest statement within the last couple of days it's beginning to smack more and more of desperation to arrange a fight with Fury BEFORE Price gets exposed.

    Fury is now clearly and rightfully looking at bigger things.

    I will say this now, I don't think this fight will ever happen because Price is now being forced to make a huge leap from a Skelton/ Sexton etc. to world level and try and keep the fight alive - and with that I think with that it will be his rapid undoing :good

    Even Price 'joked' Flintoff would have KOd his first 8 opponents.

    Compare that to Fury who took multiple '0s' from fighters in his early fights :yep

    Price has a textbook padded record.
