This is a fight that will never happen but in the incredibly unlikely event that it did, who would you go with in an all Scouse heavyweight clash? Could Bellew avoid being KO'd early and take advantage of Price's terrible conditioning in the second half of the fight? Does Tony carry the 'powah' to hurt his gigantic friend?
Depends on how well Bellews chin is at HW, if it's good enough to survive at least one big right hand he wins this. Tentatively lean towards Bellew by knockout, not 100% convinced he'd have eaten all the shots Hammer absorbed last night.
Is he not a better boxer than Hammer? I'd imagine he'd be on his bike for the first few rounds and let Price huff and puff after a few minutes chasing him.
Probably but I'm not convinced he has a better chin. Bellew has shown a tendency to be dropped early, not sure he would recover if that were to happen against Price.
Indeed. I expect him to fight cautiously at heavyweight. Unfortunately for him Haye has fast hands so will land on him and when he does Tony is taking an impromptu nap.
100%? No way. Bellews got a glass chin himself, Price definitely has the power to get him out of there early should he connect. Light hitting McKenzie dropped him in rd 1, so did Makabu, a shot Brudov had him out on his feet. Lean towards him but it is by no means a given.
I'm pretty sure Bellew could avoid Price hitting him for 3 rounds, at which point Price is out of it. But yeah I see what you're saying.
