    Yes, that's why he got brutally beaten down by Tony Thompson twice and that's why he got brutally KOed by Teper in his 'prime' years.
    Price's best win is probably Dave Allen.
    He lost to
    Hammer
    Teper
    Thompson
    Kuzmin
    Povetkin
    Chisora

    But you give him a chance to beat AJ... jesus Christ. His best win is DAVE ALLEN

    Price has a chance. Joshua is chinny and Price has devastating power. But I'd heavily favor Joshua

    He beat the brakes off Audley Harrison and John McDermott.

    Don't forget McDermott you idiot. McDermott boxes AJ's ears off. He even arguably beat Fury.

    John McDermott is a solid win but Audley Harrison is the guy that David Haye carried for 3 rounds because his friends bet on a 3rd round KO.

    Hahahahahha. So what? Fury was a 21 year old novice who then dominated McDermott in the rematch.
    You cannot be serious. McDermott would box Usyk's ears off as well, easy work. The mighty John McDermott who got beat by Popov and Mark Krence. Solid boxer but you cannot be ****ing serious.
    I don't even like Joshua but some of the things you come up with beggars belief

    Why wasn't McDermott a unified heavyweight champion then?

    By the way, McDermott wasn't dominated in the rematch. Fury was blowing out of his arse for a few rounds and although McDermott was fairly ineffective, all things considered, Fury did not dominate him. He looked dodgy in there with the extra stone weight.

    McDermott was a big talent. What a tough test for a 21 year old. Fury was thrown in competitive bouts early as a young man and all of those 50-50's that he overcame early on gave him fantastic experience.

    Great days, them. McDermott. Big talent.

    Does current AJ have better defensive skills and pure boxing skills than young Fury? Nope for me. McDermott outjabs and outboxes him badly. Joshua's only chance is (T)KO.

    McDermott won 1 or 2 rounds in the 2nd fight. Maybe domination is an overstatement but that Tyson Fury would have been KOed in 3 rounds vs the current Tyson Fury, he was raw and stiff for the most part. McDermott was a good boxer I'm not denying that, but Mighty said he would box Joshua's ears off. That's a statement that's just bollocks.

    100% he does.
    Fury back then was very very very very very poor compared to the Fury we have today. He left himself open, barely moved his head and was much slower with his feet. Fury is a better boxer than Joshua now but I'd pick current Joshua to beat a 21 year old Fury 10/10 times.

    I reckon AJs 5 year old son could beat Pricey in his prime, the stamina of a drunk cart horse.

    You have to admit that McDermott's charisma may have posed problems for Joshua. His ring walk and intimidating persona when he stepped through the ropes. He was as tough as old boots was big John. Skillful, strong and a real warrior. A fit McDermott would clobber the likes of Pudding Pulev.

    Price had a big punch but absolutely no confidence to use it. His best ko victory was Audley Harrison.

    Yes Audley Harrison.

    AJ by destruction.
