    Great accolade for a brit HW to recieve. I'm tellin u now Price is exceptional.

    ^ That's a safe bet, but Price cannot afford to make any mistakes, so this will still be a very interesting fight to watch.

    Price certainly has some flaws but he's exciting to watch, has power, i think sometimes his balance is off and as has already been mentioned his defence isnt always tight. really looking forward to seeing how he fares as he steps up a level though. Id go for a Price KO in under 6. I think the prospect of the year is deserved personally

    thompson isnt a bad fighter. the way he took apart krasniqi was stunning. especially at the time when a lot of guys where openly supporting krasniqi to a title shot. because of hsi hearty performance against brewster and his 'improvement of pacing' in his two other times out. but the bodyshots, the southpaw style. brilliant. stamped onto him and kept wacking that right to the body.


    thompson is a good american edition to the heavys but he is flat footed and has a lack of sharpness and finesse.

    he gets caught by bombers. which he hasn't really faced. a tall southpaw body puncher is a good unique fighter but it isnt always a winning combination.
