    Well you would assume he will being that's his only chance. I can't see anything Molina can do to win though.

    Not the question of who sucks more. The question is who has a better chance of defeating Joshua

    Easier said than done. He's a broken fighter. Thompson mentally broke him, Teper finished off what was left.

    Well I think he'd could go into a Joshua fight thinking he's got nothing to lose. Everyone thinks he's getting stopped anyway, so if he does so what.

    Yes Alexander was more of a threat than Bailey.

    Molina is more of a threat than Price.

    Alexander lost every round to Khan, but he is feather fisted. Bailey was one of the biggest puncher at 147 in recent years. Khan has a glass chin. I'm not saying Khan wouldn't beat Bailey but he sure as hell would have more of a chance than feather fisted fighters like Alexander or Malignaggi.

    Don't think you understand styles make fights.

    Alexander knocked out Juan Urango who had a reputation of being durable. If you can spark Urango you can spark Khan.

    Both have a puncher's chance David early until he gets KO'd in 2, Molina can take more bombs for longer and dish more out, so Molina it is.

    Molina has a punchers chance*

    Price doesn't have that unless he see's a sports psychologist and sorts his mental issues out. Then he can become the dangerous glass cannon that he's supposed to be lol.

    I agree but as bad as AJ's chin is it might only take a glancing blow.:deal:

    That's not exactly the question you asked though. The question, as I take it, is who you think has the better chance of landing that freak one in a million game changing shot, in which case the answer would have to be Price. Molina has the marginally greater chance of winning as he's a slightly better fighter with slightly fewer weaknesses, but at that sort of level it's really a moot point.

    One thing that Price has always done, is survive round 1. Molina- not so much.

    Molina lasting a while with Wilder, should tell people a lot more about Wilder than it tells you about Molina.

    Because of the original hype surrounding Price, people go overboard with the comparison but is getting stopped by a doped up Thompson or Teper in a few rounds really that much more embarrassing than getting stopped by Arreola in 1 round? Bare in mind, the version of Thompson Price fought hadn't been beaten by anyone not name Wladimir Klitschko in 13 years.

    Both poor opponents for Joshua. But of the two I'd say Price is more dangerous.

    Price we know can at least drop Joshua if he lands as apparently he achieved this when they sparred but we don't know if Molina has the power to do the same. Price has a punchers chance even if it's a slim one and that means Joshua just can't try and walk through Price he has to respect his power and take his time.

    Molina may have gone 9 rounds with Wilder but you have to remember he's been KO'ed in 1 round on two separate occasions. Molina is too small, too easy to hit and too slow a starter, Joshua will have little to fear and walk right through Molina.

    Molina.

    Price has the better attributes like the ko power but mentally he is totally shot, I think he'd freeze up and get blasted out within seconds.

    Molina will have a go and may hang round a little longer
