    Gotta give Price some credit he did far better than I expected, he had some success but we all knew it was only a matter of time before Povetkin detonated something big and it would be all over.

    Povetkin always looked the more likely but Price created an opportunity then didn’t capitalise on it. Povetkin was always going to regather himself if Price didn’t go for broke.

    Time to retire Pricey

    That freeze in Pricey's legs once he got hit by the right before the KO reminds me of Amir Khan. Same exact reaction: they get hit and their legs freeze, they turn into a sitting duck.

    I never thought Povetkin could beat either Joshua or Wilder, and tonight only makes me more certain.

    Sweet Jesus, what a great 2 punch combination.

    2 power shots, both landing flush.

    Price has all the physical attributes, but doesn’t move his head, doesn’t move his feet and doesn’t throw the jab enough.

    I’m screaming at the TV, THROW THE JAB!!!

    Right hand to the temple left him brain dead for a second, easy finish for Sasha the basher.

    Real shame that left hook from Price came at the very end of the third, a minute sooner into the round and Povetkin would have been in deep trouble.

    Should I feel sorrier for Price getting KO'd than other guys for some reason?

    This was ****ing brutal, my god. Price already KNOCKED OUT with the first one but still stand on his feets but then Povetkin with a brutal one.

    Price’s corner are a disgrace should have told him to jump on Povetkin, he did nothing the whole round after Povetkin was really unsteady. How someone that big and powerful can’t use his size and jab is pretty pathetic though.
