    Why not? I do, I reckon he does have a chance. It's HW boxing. What ever's happened to him since it went pear shaped he's still got skills and he's a giant man with alot of experience who towers above of Potvetkin. Not to mention what can happen when some one's back's against the wall cos this is last chance saloon for him.

    I do have a confession, I was on the original Price hype train the first time round and just would love for him to prove what so many of us felt about him before.

    Price looked in the best shape in years. He genuinely looks like he’s worked really hard. It was always psychological with Dave. Catastrophe theory....he would fold under his own pressure. It was never because he lacked the skills, the power or size. I really hope he can do himself proud. If he loses he loses but i hope he leaves it all in the ring.

    Same here. Dont care if he lost, just really want him to give it his all. Really wouldn't be suprised if he just freezes though.

    Yeah the pressure might be off him as he is the underdog and people expect him to lose, but them nerves are still going to be eating him up.

    Mate just imagine Pricey does ko him!!!! Just the thought of it sends my mind spinning lol

    It would be amazing, mate. Stuff you see in movies really...career in pieces, rock bottom, never fulfilling that potential. Then pulling that career defining victory out of nowhere.

    Povetkin was apprehensive as hell against Hammer, and looked horrible, Price packs far more of a wallop than Christian, so it wouldn't shock me if Sasha gave away the first three or four rounds trying to find his proper range, and in the interim, Price could nail him with something big if he sells out and goes for broke. That's his only chance.

    Great message from Fury (what was he wearing by the way?!).

    Everyone in the game and us fans know it’s mainly a confidence thing with Pricey. It’s devastating for him. 3 losses to drugs cheats have ruined him.

    VADA cleared Povetkin, want to make that clear. I don't know what Price has left, but Povetkin can fight and punch hard, has a good chin, good defense, so Price will have to get in a couple lucky punches, not sure if one would be enough. I expect Povetkin to win, don't let his size fool you, he won the gold in the Olympics, super heavyweight division, also beat Dimitrenko and Wach, Dimitrenko is around 6 feet 7 inches tall and Wach is around 6 feet 8, so Povetkin is used to fighting fighters bigger than he................

    None.

    Povetkin is going to batter Price and it will not be competitive.
