    I know people that have met him and speak really highly of him. He's apparently an all round great bloke. I don't think on his last showing he has any business being in the ring with a top 5 HW and although I'd love to see him score an unlikely win I worry for his safety.

    On his right is Dimitrenko, on our right its Cornish. Both glass jawed embarrassments.

    Yep, he always looks absolutely terrified in the ring.

    Throw 'em on the undercard. Will be funny either way.

    I'm getting rick rolled by Dimentrenko's haircut. Those are the perfect guys to prepare for Price

    I meant Zakhozhyi. if thy gave out title shots based on the way guys look. That guy would be a mandatory.

    Dimitrienko looks weird, like he's on feminine hormones or something.

    Two big lumbering piles of horse manure huffing and puffing like asthmatic beached whales with mesothelioma while slow dancing is no laughing matter.:ohno

    There's no guarantee Price beats Cornish at this point. All the Scotsman has to do is run for 4 rounds and let big Dave totally empty his tank again.

    I meant when either or both inevitably starts to dance.

    A double-KO is quite possible, if they answer the bell with light range-finding jabs at the same time!

    He looks disturbingly boyish for a 35-year old 6'7' guy.

    AJ and Parker can both repeat their demolition jobs on them as a thoroughly inadequate warm up for their main event, they'll still come in bone dry.

    I'm surprised to hear Cornish hasn't been KTFO in sparring.

    I fear for Price in this one. But win this and his next fight will be his cash out fight. No more plumbing for Pricey.
    He's got to take a chance go for it early, letting his hands go. I know he's only got 3 rounds in him at any sort of pace, but after 5 or 6 rounds hes done.Good luck Pricey.

    I'm not sure what anyone is complaining about with the choice of sparing partners... They are perfect for what Povetkin is facing...
