    Let’s hope price puts on a performance like he did against Povetkin and pulls it off this time

    Is this confirmed?
    Price must really love the feeling of being KO'd.

    I think Kuzmin wins but he isn't that great. Would be an upset but it is doable

    It's all but confirmed. Not officially announced yet but Hearn has said himself in a few interviews released today.

    Could they not have matched Price with a non puncher or at least a softer touch? Like Dave Allen. I mean I love the comedy factor and the banter but do we really need to see Price brutally stopped again?

    I agree m8. Even in defeat to Povetkin there are alot of positives Price can take from that performance.

    Kuzmin was already on the card as part of Matchroom's agreement with World of Boxing. So they were after an opponent for him, not an opponent for Price.

    Looks like I’m well in the minority here, but this is once again Hearn taking liberties here. I don’t want to here any crap about it being Price/MTKs choice-it’s Eddie’s show.

    I know it’s boxing and I’m sounding like a wet flannel but Price is not safe
    in there- I don’t find it entertaining personally when I know he’s likely to be badly hurt again. It’s more cruelty then sport..oh well, roll on next Saturday

    Price getting knocked out again I'm sorry to say!!

    Let's be honest it was an entertaining fight with Povetkin while it lasted but he was knocked out cold!

    Good luck to him I hope he is at least getting six figures but this will end with another ko loss!

    Noone is forcing Price to take this fight.
    Actually he's appearing on his 2nd PPV this year. That's more than Wilder and Fury combined.
