    I'm not sure what Price has left. He could catch Browne walking in and KO him but Browne could pressure him and KO price. Like you said who knows. It's been a far fall from grace for Price.

    Yeah my thoughts exactly... I think before the Thompson fights especially Price would be like 80/20 against Browne, now I lean towards Browne 70/30. Price is the better equipped fighter sure, but his confidence is shattered, and he's just too fragile.

    Once again, this thread is about HW boxing, I'm talking about the 2nd best HW in the game today. :-(

    Brownes power is good, but not great. Ustinov knocked this guy out in the first round. Browne was cut AGAIN. The guy gets cut in every fight. He lost to Rudenko imo. The same Rudenko that got schooled by Hughie Fury.

    I think Browne is extremely lucky to have a shot at the title, but he will get stopped as soon as he faces some real competition.

    Wilder would be the big favourite in the Browne match-up, but with Brownes decent power and Wilders joke of a chin you never know.

    To be fair Browne did hurt his right hand early, and it was clear that it didn't have the sting it usually does. Sure he's limited, but I do think he would of had an easier time if not for the unfortunate injury. He was only putting full force into his lefts. I think Chagaev will beat Browne easily as well.

    Easy win for Wach. They were sparring earlier this year:

    Recowski's only chance to win is if Wach breaks his both legs.

    Do you think Huck will move up after the loss?

    Seems he's probably approaching his sell-by date, and a run at heavyweight for a couple of wins and then step up for big paydays (and to take a shot at getting himself in the title picture) would likely be a more lucrative approach than going for a rematch for his belt at cruiser ... if he did that and lost, he'd be worth much less on the heavyweight circuit if he decided to make a go at it.

    I'd like to see him against a Tarver or USS.

    Bad night for the heavyweights. USS and Magic Man put on a rather dull fight where I think both ended up losing. Not a lot left for either guy and a rematch would be painful to watch. And Huck a guy who may have been able to move up to hw and create a little buzz basically had his heavyweight aspirations deflated.
