Price has a lot of talent. I still think his punching power is close to the best in the heavyweights. I think this loss may help him to be honest. His head got to big and now that I look back at it fight Thompson was dumb. He had nothing to gain and everything to lose in that fight. Maybe the punch was luck but it does not look good when the first time you step up you get ktfo. I do like the fact he got up. I was shocked by to ko but it happens. Looks how far Wlad came after his ko's. I still give Price a good chance of winning a belt. But I think Fury is the best of the two at this point.
You must have parrot intelligence since you don't seem to understand simple concepts about boxing & physiology. atsch - back at ya'.
Truth is TTT has impressive footwork for a hw, a lovely right shoulder faint, isn't afraid to clinch when necessary, and jabs to the body, which is mostly what you see the best fighters elites like Floyd, Maravilla, and Jmm doing. Sometimes TTT has looked kinda shitty he seemed like a hot and cold inconsistent fighter to me, but dang that really was a nice counter combination started and setup by an uppercut catching Price walking in. If only TTT was quicker and more aggressive he'd be a serious threat to the K bros or Haye. But, I guess 40 is today's 30. Great performance by the Tiger. Hope he gets a boost and rides the momentum.
Curious facts..... Pulev is ranked above WBA champ Alex Povetkin in the boxrec ratings, Audley Harrison is rated 4 places higher than David Price too... And all are above Malik Scott ... Unreal..
Who does this strong belief reside with other than you? There was nothing lucky about the punch. Thompson intended to punch Price in the head. The burst-eardrum-causing-lack-of-balance argument doesn't hold up either. Razor Ruddock burst Tyson's eardrum in their 2nd fight, but Tyson didn't even go down. I do believe Price has talent, but let's not get ahead of ourselves. He hasn't even started taking on fighters under 40, and he has already been knocked out.
Exactly, it was a real Fernando Vargas type situation. This young unhoned guy is throw to the wolves too soon. If Prices handlers give him 9-10 years to develop his craft he will still be a superstar.
It would not be so bad, except he parrots the same tripe over and over. Occasionally the guy really has some interesting stuff but as of late it is just the same old monotony. Him and that Nonito smoak guy have turned into the two most boring non trolls on this site.
