    Price has a punchers chance but Chisora should be able to outpoint him at the very least.

    Chisora’s engine has never been an issue so it’s hard to see how Price beats him later on.

    Chisora output will be too much for Price.
    Can I ask though where does the idea come from that the winner of this should get a title shot? Assume nobody here believes that & it's just nonsense trotted out by Fast Car

    Could see this being a scruffy points win for Del Boy. Price is so much taller and Del Boy not always the tidiest of fighters.
    I would have thought he should be able to get Price out of there as soon as Prices tires after round 4.
    I dont buy the one shot KO for Price, he controlled Allan nicely but never looked in danger of dropping him. Chisora will be more aggressive so might have more chance to walk onto things but by the same token he's also going to make Price work far harder., land more and who has Price stopped of any note?

    If I’m Chisora, I wouldn’t bother head hunting against Price. Price does have a tendency to let opponents in on the inside and is almost accepting of it. Chisora should drive his shots into the body and cash in later on in the fight.

    Gutted I’m working tomorrow night. Just gonna have to catch what I can of the night.

    For the talk of Price having a puncher's chance, even when he has landed big against better opposition (Thompson, Hammer, Povetkin) he has never been able to finish the job. In recent fights he hasn't seemed to have the same snap on his punches either. Unless I'm forgetting something, Price has never overcome adversity to win a fight. If his "equalizer" has never actually equalized anything by now, it's not likely to be a factor against a battle-hardened pro like Chisora.

    Stylewise it looks a good fit for Chisora. He has done well against stiff, upright boxers like Helenius, and Price looks made to order for that looping right-hand he likes to throw. Price has struggled with physically strong brawlers fighters like Teper.

    It's heavyweights, so there's always a chance something crazy happens. It really would be a bolt from the blue though if Price pulls this one off.

    Agreed as soon as Price tired he will go back in a straight line into the ropes and then its cash in time for Del Boy i would think

    When I listened to Price a few days ago, he spoke like he didn't really believe he was gonna win - nice pay day for him

    I don't think I can ever recall someone as susceptible to KO's as Price causing an upset in this sport, it's guys who are tough who can pull something out of the bag that can do it .

    I think people are forgetting that Price isn’t fighting Allen this time around, Derek is a much tougher customer and much better

    Stamina will be Priceys real undoing sadly.

    Always done things the honest way and has always paid for it.

    Meanwhile Derek looks bigger than ever and will have an almost unnatural work rate for a man his age with that much mass.

    Dereck is looking in great shape. Price doesn't look up for this in my opinion. Definitely here for the money and not the fight. Shame as I was looking forward to the Parker fight.
    Early KO for Del Boy

    Eddie Hearn going on about Price v Whyte filling Anfield. What is his obsession with stadium fights?

    Price to win by KO! Never thought I’d ever say that again but something tells me Chisora hasn’t trained for stamina but just power and longer fight goes on he will blow and get caught. Think he’s over a stone heavier than last fight and that’s just muscle it looks like so not good for a long fight. Chisora is a disrespectful self obsessed knob who always gets beaten up at world level but he seems to think he’s the nuts for some reason. Lost my complete respect when he ranted on about all weight classes outside HW are waste of time. Knob!!!! Hope the sheep get their revenge on this twat.
