    Price is well able to KO anybody in the sport. That's not the problem with Pricey, that would be that he's very average at everything else.

    Here's a video of Joshua getting stopped by a Romanian called Mihai Nistor in the European championships. If a smallish HW like Nistor was able to do that to Joshua I'm sure a giant one who hits as hard as Price could do even worse.

    And obviously Joshua has improved a lot since then too. His defence was wide open there.

    Spars don't have records.. only amateur bouts and professional bouts do.

    If spars had records it would be oximoronical.. you'd train for them.

    That doesn't mean you don't try to replicate what you do when it's recorded etc.

    You'd have spars for the spars.

    Price can bang like most HW's if they hit you generally you're gonna go! But seeing the way Price fell apart twice against Thompson is a big worry and I think if AJ lands clean Price goes.

    Unlicensed and all that..

    I fight in a gym where I have won 0.

    I'm great because I participate in the lowest echelons of boxing.


    (I have a bag in my garage)

    Might as well be if it's a full house in your house etc..

    Staging a professional spar in an all sellout crowd.

    Drago used to have his own fake 1984 Super Heavyweight Olympic Gold medal on wiki.

    Obviously the Soviets didn't participate in 1984 though.. as did the Cubans and Stevenson etc.
