    Still saved some face with the Kuga pick, most of the league got that fight wrong and most picked Price too.

    He needs to retire FAST, Good ****ing God.

    I've never seen a fighter like this ever, he might even be worse than that guy who fought Burns 2-3 years ago who was winning handily then started gassing like crazy after 5 rounds and then ended up getting stopped in the corner.

    This guy gasses out literally after 2-3 rounds, it's actually comical at this point!

    I didn't pick Koelling.

    For Price/Hammer I'll agree, I don't know what the hell the bookies were thinking. But on paper it's technically an upset.

    I actually find it laughable at this point, I'm not sure it's the lack of training. He seems like a hard worker to me.

    Perhaps his tank is just that, very very very small. No matter how hard he trains, that gas tank will never increase in size - ever.

    That's life!

    Boxing is NOT the sport for him. He has the heart, he has the power, but without the stamina/chin. You will not go far in the ranks!

    If Ima not mistaken I believe @lufcrazy has picked the winner in all fights in 3 of the 4 fights so far, with Quinlan vs Eubanks remaining...!!!

    Honestly can anyone give a decent reason for picking Price?

    For us diehard HW fans, the writing was on the wall. But the bookies probably saw a hard hitting olympic medalist going up against a small, fat guy with little power and a shaky chin.

    Price vs Hamer is not an upset, it's an inevitability.
