    If he came out all-guns-blazing maybe. But he won't. He will be gunshy because he knows he's in with a massive puncher who can turn his lights out at any moment. I just don't think he's got it in him and will be surprised if he makes it out of the 1st round.

    Thing is and I’ve said this before, price just doesn’t have the engine to go 12 rounds nor the ring smarts to be on his bike for the distance against povetkin.

    He only has one go at it, and that’s to come out all guns blazing for 3 rounds and if he can’t get povetkin out of there in that time then quit on his stool or pull a false injury

    No point getting sparked out again like he did against teper

    This is heavyweights so anything can happen

    This is his best approach, no doubt. It's how Andy Lee said he's fight against Golovkin and it's applicable here for sure

    I really want Price to win but i just don't see it happening.
    Even if he come out all guns blazing, im sure Povetkin will expect this, cover up, wait for Price to gas (which he will) then unload bombs on him.

    Hasn't stopped me from putting on a few quid for big Price.

    Been so bad loosing money at the bookies recently on boxing bets so why stop now!

    On a side note i was going to put a few quid on Whyte winning by ko over Browne, but the fools on here made me change my mind and i stuck a ton on Browne for the ko!!!!! When i saw Browne in the ring i was like NOOOOOOOO!!!!! Lol wont be doing that again!

    the thing is, he went into the ring against the likes of hammer and teper, basically two fat lads off the street and looked and acted terrified. what state of mind is he going to be in walking down to the ring knowing hes in there with povetkin? he might bolt before he gets in there with all that nervous energy.

    Of course he has a chance, just not a very big one.

    I am British so I should want Price to win but I hope Povetkin knocks him out because I honestly can't stomach the thought of AJ Vs Price on PPV.

    Everything about that would upset me so I hope Povetkin wins, Price is OK afterwards and I can sleep well knowing the boxing world and British boxing wouldn't have to suffer the horrific consequences.. Eddie Hearn selling us AJ Vs Price.

    I feel like a traitor, I'm British and I always try and support the British fighter but I can't handle the idea of AJ Vs Price, it actually hurts me.

    Am going to stick a bit on Price to win by KO early, long odds and he can punch so he should win by stunning KO.....

    Price has the kind of power that will always give him a punchers chance but it's very very slim.
