After watching some of the success Kash Ali had against Price before he got hungry and wanted an early dinner, it got me wondering how the Stiverne who recently fought Joyce would have handled Price. Would Stiverne have iced him or would he just be too unfit to be effective at all if Price was able to keep his distance?
If Stiverne had bitten him he wouldn't stop until there was him and a very large skeleton in the ring. Once he gets a taste for it the ref and both corners could also be in trouble.
I like watching Price - always have my fingers crossed he ll knock the guy out, but knowing that if he gets caught first he’ll be out cold. All adds to the excitement - but worry how many more knockouts that fragile chin can take.
I reckon Price win by KO mid rounds. Although Price vs the winner of Browne vs Allen should be his last fight win or lose.
There's a decent chance Price lays Stiverne out inside a couple of rounds, but he will probably gas after 5 and lose by stoppage.
Stiverne still has a good shot on him He would I'm afraid to say beat Price I'm ashamed to say I'd like to see it made tho
Despite being a fat blob, Stiverne still has a decent dig on him and ok stamina and is experienced enough not to be open to Price's very occasional semi-attacks. That in itself is more than plenty to beat Price. Stiverne by 6 round ko / Price bent over collapsing like an asthmatic sloth.
I would back Stiverne to lay Price flat out. Stiverne is a decent counter puncher. He would look to time Price over his slow jab that he leaves out for too long, and is too tentative with. Also Price lacks that killer instinct now and aggression. Pre Thompson Price would have destroyed a Kash Ali in 1 round. This will be a Stiverne KO victory in 5 rounds for me.
Stiverne? Naaaaah, that's a hard sell even for Eddie, both look like crap. I would go for Price Vs Arreola.. That actually interests me.
