    Yes, I believe that many people may have over-rated Price. All I'm saying is that Fury Price would be a 50/50 fight based on what I've seen so far.
    People forget that Fury beat Chisora, he's no bum.

    Yeah he used to be my hero along with Hatton and Calzaghe when I was a kid but he's still 45.

    A top prospect- When you consider all the heavies in the world that look promising, have talent but havent been tested yet against a top ten, the Pricey is doing ok so far.

    Fury's running has made Price much more rated. Its his fault.

    If you're going to make a statement like that in the title shouldn't you at least balance it against the fact Fury struggled like crazy against a guy Price KO'd in 1 round?

    :-( Considering he's sparred with world class fighters not long after he turned pro, i doubt it. He seems a confident guy, but humble.

    And? Skelton was best fighter from British heavyweight boxing's great era of the Fabulous 4 (with Fraudley, Williams, & Sprott).

    Average compared to the Williams/Sprott/Francis merry-go-round?

    Exactly, in 1 round. Poor form guide. Tells you **** all when there's no way Price could do that consistently against McDermott.
