    not a bad fight. if price gets starched again, they should revoke his boxing license.

    Nice fight and clear rewards to the victor. Parker gets to prepare against a taller guy where a win for Price gets him straight into title contention. Not bad coin to boot. Also John Parker, Joseph's younger brother debuts on the Dimitrenko under card at LHW. He had a good amateur career.30-5 as an am.

    Prediction for price/Parker : I see an early to mid round stoppage for Parker. If Price weathers the storm mind you he could tire Parker and eek out a decision. Either way it's a good move by Hearn. He gets Josh/price or Josh/Parker out of it, both big sellers

    David Price is the living epitome of privilege.
    Hell, other fighters don't get the chances this mother****er gets. This guys gets the type of hype that GGG would envy.
    Absolute hype for nothing, NOTHING, NOTHING!!!!!!!!

    I don't get it. Is this some kinda hail Mary from Price and his team or what?
    Everyone knows he doesn't have the chin to hang with the top, but with both opponents chinning him getting busted for peds he still has some credit left. He could just fight featherfists for a while and then cash himself out, but facing Parker is like that one in 10 to 20 shot that he lands something big first. Price's career will be over after Parker.

    Audley Harrison? Actually they're one in the same. People actually like to see a highly regarded boxer demolished time and time again and the narrative that goes with it

    I quite like this, plus Parker winning makes it a bigger event in the Uk

    Definitely than Joshua and Fury (other than Wlad) but I think a couple of Wilders opponents would be better scalps. If Parker takes this fight then it is a bit credit to him and team imho... has a mandatory shot and is taking voluntary matches against guys that are up with what the title holders are facing at best.

    It would be ironic that by the time he faces Joshua he could be the one with the resume that looks like one that belongs to a champion.
