    He's fighting Orlov. Hardly going to pull out unless he was genuinely ill is he?

    I don't know.

    It is Booth we are talking about here.

    And last week he tweeted a 'joke' about David Price being petrified every time he gets tagged.

    He was due to be facing a 6'10, 25 stoner who actually gave Pulev a harder nights work than he should have before he was DQd.

    Price is mentally fragile.

    Maybe it was a virus, but I would say just 5 days beforehand and with Booth involved it is more likely bogus.

    It's what they do.

    Was looking forward to seeing Price back in the ring and a Virus does seem like pretty weak excuse to pull out of a fight, maybe he was dropped during sparring and Booth felt he wasn't mentally ready yet to get back in the ring?

    No, I think Price pulling out of this fight was legit, he had no real reason to be afraid other than something legit, such as a virus.................

    His opponent was so fearsome looking, ripped and in shape that Price pulled out

    His reputation is on the line big time so why risk it in a nothing fight if he is indeed under the weather. I'm pretty sure he has embarked on a long long term plan to get to the top, or at least fringe level. So a small cancellation isn't an issue.
