    Rumour has it, David Price can't hold a shot.

    this is a factor a lot of people can't give too recognition...

    Pricey might be a bit chinny, no more than, Khan, Haye or Mr. Sing along Fury...

    it was a lucky punch that caused damage, it happens, has in the past will in the future.

    Price would still put Fury out and himself in to go forward for Britain in the as yet unnamed Giant Division...

    It was thrown with intention, so wasn't really lucky, but I think it hit an odd spot for Price. Think if that would've landed square on his chin it wouldn't have been as bad, it instead perforated his eardrum made him all wobbily and off balence. He should've got up on one knee, took a breather for a couple seconds, then got up. I think then he would've been less unstable on his feet, and could've continued to the end of the round. Just my opinion.

    Journeyman or not, flush on the chin straight right. Might not prove a whole lot, but still relevant to what I was saying.

    Didn't he fly off on holiday a few days afterwards? With a perforated eardrum??

    This is the logical question: did it ACTUALLY perforate Prices's eardrum?

    I'm not so sure.

    When a 17 year old Tyson Fury put an headguarded David Price on his backside in the amateurs it looks as though it was pretty much in the exact same spot ....


    Hmmm :huh
