    I reckon Pricey wanders round with his shirt off all the time nowadays.

    I think Pricey is now my all time 2nd favourite boxer, loving that he's comparing himself to Rocky Balboa.

    Good interview.

    I’m happy for big Pricey. I hated hearing the story about his kids getting a rough time at school. It pulls on the old heartstrings so it does.

    Imagine if everything just clicks now and he gets himself in contention for a belt!

    He'll be looked at as an easy win whose reasonably well known, well in the UK.

    Hopefully he'll have built some confidence now and can get a few good wins. The only problem with confidence fighters, is they aren't very resilient because the chips will be down at some point.

    Fair ****'s to big Pricey ! He's had a rough ride the last few years.

    What did he do that Ortiz couldn't? Ortiz stopped Allen earlier than Price did he not?

    Yoka stopped him in 10 as well.

    Still a good win for Price though. Overcame what must have been a huge psychological hurdle in getting through to the later rounds and still coming up with the goods.

    Any guesses on what the "secret to doing 12 rounds" is?

    I'm guessing Roadman Dave discovered drill

    The messed up thing about this victory and Price’s new sense of confidence/swagger off the back of it is it’s setting him up for another heartbreaking, devastating and dare I say it comical (to a lot of people) knockout. While I’m really happy for him it’s Dave Allen and he’s reacting like he’s world champ. Nobody laughed at the Povetkin knockout because Price didn’t have the attitude this win has given him.

    The difference is Price can box, Allen is awful, Price is one of them frustrating what if cases ie wasn't chinny and had an engine
