    David price just retired so now he’s classic material ( waits for enthusiasm. ). So how about a little match with him and Abe Simon ?

    I think that you would have to favor Simon.

    His best work was a little bit better.

    Walcott, even first career Walcott, was a much higher level than Dave Allen and Audley Harrison

    His best scalp was probably Gunnar Barlund.

    Abe Simon just off his superior durability and resume would have to be the favorite.

    That said a guy with Price’s punching power can never be underestimated, but besides his punching power Price never expanded on his style much and Simon had an excellent jab, so If Price didn’t get Simon out early Price would take a beating.
