    How can Thompson be the underdog after what happen in the last fight? Yeah I do admire Price taking the rematch right away. The problem for Price is Thompson seems pissed of because no one is giving him any credit. I think Thompson is more motivated this time. But for the sport it would be better if Price wins. If price loses again to Thompson his career is pretty much over. He may become more like Tye Fields just a stepping stone for other fighters.

    There must eb loads of people betting on Price to win which also effects the odds. they also probably think Lightning doesn't strike twice but i believe it could.

    I also could not believe that Thompson is such good odds to win. Price is a 1-5 ODDS ON favorite to win with most Bookies here.

    Maybe Price's loss to TT was a fluke, but I doubt it. Price may not have a glass jaw but it doesn't look good.

    If his jaw/punch resistance is weak, he's going to have to develop a style similar to LL & Wlad - if he expects to go far.

    Price has the worst punch resistance i have ever seen. don't be too shocked if that bum stops him again.

    Well the thing that scares me most is his recovery skills more than his chin. He could not get his legs back in time to continue. Fury has been down a couple of times but he recovers fast. Fury can get up after a knockdown and win. Maybe it was just because Price got hit in the ear is the reason his balance was gone. But if he gets hit in the chin and has the same problem that answers our questions. Price can't fight so wreckless anymore. I'm very interested in his fight next week.
