Risky big time, price showed in 1st fight with Thomson his chin is glass,and in the 2nd no stamina , Chisora is improved , and will pound the rib cage,bobbing and weaving ,then boom price will fall, if it's on ,be for European title, price is still British champ so will have to give that up as well, no way back, promising fighter price, 2fights ago the next champ, now fighting for his career .
WHy does Chisora get so much hype on this forum. I think Price will blast him out in under 3. Nothing wrong with Prices chin. It is stamina that is the problem. I hope Price does well.
Problem is Chisora's style is all wrong for Price. Plus Chisora's self-esteem is on the upswing while Price likely is still devastated. Price winning would be an upset IMO, I don't see this as 50/50, rather 70:30 for Chisora.
With Chisora being a very limited fighter, all Price needs to do is to fight smart. I'm not saying that he'll win, but he is surely capable of beating Chisora. Of course, I assume that Price worked on his stamina lately, that's a big issue and he experienced it in a hard way. Anything could happen here. 50/50 fight in my opinion.
I agree, Chisora-Price is a 50-50 fight. Price looked very good before he ran into the underrated Tony Thompson. People (including myself) were overrating Price at the end of 2012, but now people are underestimating him.
I was actually leaning towards Price in this fight, blasting Chisora out before his stamina becomes an issue. But then I saw derrick is picking Price, and with his 0% accuracy rate when it comes to HW bouts I'm now sure Chisora wins it.
I can see Price knocking Chisora out....................we will see. I am seeing some here picking Vitali and Vlad to lose every fight they have.............
If Price loses this one, he's career is definitely over. Chisora looks more focused in fighting then he did when he was facing Klitschko or Haye, when he was busier trashing the other. Could be a great fight. If Chisora keeps in shape, I'll pick him, but Price is heavy handed. This fight won't go the distance.
Price can only fight one way though. He has not developed the tools to fight a smart fight and outbox Chisora. Look at the 2nd fight with Thompson and you'll see his problems. 1st round Price is able to keep the fight at range because Thompson is fighting off the back foot and allows Price the range to get his shots off and fight off the front foot. Thompson starts being aggressive and forces Price back and Price gets dominated. Price can't box off the back foot. He has no jab, he backs up in straight lines and is not effective at clinching. Thompson had his successes when landing hooks and uppercuts in the range where Chisora lives and does his best work. Chisora is the worst style match up for Price I could think of. He'll have Price backing up all night. Price doesn't have the jab to keep Chisora at range, he doesn't have the movement to keep him at range and Chisora is durable enough to absorb the odd big shot so even Price's punchers chance is minimal. Chisora's new found desire to work the body relentlessly will also undoubtedly test Price's poor stamina. Anyone who has seen Price fight and Chisora fight and understands their styles should see this will be an easy night for Chisora.
interesting match up. will dell b pressure be too much.. I think chisora might go down here. Price will end up in brawl and del b will wore him down.
But he'll need distance to land the right hand which means being able to keep Chisora at range and Chisora will be constantly moving forward unlike Thompson. Price hasn't shown he has the ability to keep a pressure fighter like Chisora at a safe distance where he can land his big right. Price has a punchers chance but that's it. He can't be expected to win on points his stamina won't see him go the distance and if he trades with Chisora hoping to get Chisora out of there first then he's playing into Chisora's style and could see himself get stopped early.
