    What is the difference between barely a knockdown and an ordinary knockdown? As far as im concerned a knockdown is a knockdown, i dont understand your arguement.

    Really, dude? You don't see the difference between Cotto knocking an off-balance Clottey down with a jab and Bradley getting absolutely floored by Holt?

    Anyway, Kelvin Price is pretty good but Wilder is gonna TKO him in 5 probably.

    Against a shorter fighter that style will work well (that's basically Vitali's style as well) but Wilder's the same size as Price and a lot quicker. An upset wouldn't be shocking, but I suspect Price will be eating jabs all night.

    Maybe this is too much a step up for Wilder

    I think price has a really good shot at upsetting Wilder... Wilder not having very many rounds under his belt could hurt him in this one. He's going to notice the differences in talent between Price, and the bums he's been facing very quickly.

    Price is a bum.

    He's not David Price

    I agree that he's nowhere near DAVID Prices level, how many HW prospects are? But he is still a pretty decent HW, and I think he has a good shot at upsetting Wilder next month.

    Yes. And so did Manny Steward. And so does Tim Witherspoon.

    But you know better?

    :lol:

    Come on man.... Claims like this are made ALL THE TIME in boxing. How many times have we heard from a boxer, or a trainer say "This guy is a FUTURE champion" and a few years later the guy is a journeymen? It's best to take such bold statements with a grain of salt. A lot of people can knock out bums like Wilder has, doesn't mean he has the most "powerful right hand in boxing"

    Didn't Wlad say Tim Witherspoon was going to be something Special LOL???? Like I said.... Such claims need to be taken with a grain of salt. I'm sure in that case Wlad didn't really mean it, and that he just said it to be nice. But still, i'm sure some idiots took it 100% seriously.
