    Price looks just like Wlad when hit back...all over the place and doesnt know what to do.

    This dude is a brutal KO waiting to happen.

    Price has looked far, far more convincing in his fights than these two.

    He's further along in stepping up opposition than both of them by a good margin. He had a very extensive AM career, whereas Mago and Wilder have obviously still been learning how to fight as pros. Neither had anywhere near the amateur experience of Price. We'll see how he fares in the next year, as he should get some good ranked opponents under his belt.

    Actually, Timurziev is a huge win for Price. He also beat Fury...and FWIW, Dallas by about a million points.

    No great shame in losing to Cammarelle, Glazkov, or Helenius.

    The one black mark against him from the amateurs is getting blasted by Bermane Stiverne, who's garbage - but that was early days for Price, scrawny, wet behind the ears and barely out of his teens.

    Lost to "garbage" Helenius too like brits and most of the esb folks call Helenius.

    Anyway I dont care too much what happened in amateurs like the esb cliche goes. But when you have been KTFO/wobbled/knocked down by every top amateur you fought then there is HUGE problem. Although planet brit Price's chin is fine, miracle happened I guess.

    I don't get this hate for Price. He's actually looked far more convincing than Fury in wins against similar opponents, and has yet to have anyone put him in trouble as a pro. And let's not forget that Fury is now considered a contender by most everyone. I think Price has a higher upside than most of the other prospects out there.

    I prefer Fury because he's more entertaining and not managed by Maloney. I'm not impressed by the likes of Audley and Skelton either.

    Its a weird one for sure.

    Price has no chin, was floor countless times whilst wearing a headguard as an am and has shown against the limited opponents he has fought so far his defense if poor when someone really comes at him, he seems clueless.

    He will get sparked as some as he meets someone decent.

    That's if he doesnt get them first, he has some ****ing dig on him mind!!!
