I'm 100% for McD.....the percentage drops dramatically if McD stands off him and gets jabbed and picked off, but once he gets near and close in range its bye bye Price. If McD could also smash the body once he's in then it will be a real one sided affair. Didn't that little dwarf promoter Baloney once say ringside that he had the two best heavyweights in Europe. One down and one to go!
McDermott to bum rush Price early and get a stoppage. Price is one paced, never uses his jab as a weapon to keep his opponent honest and Camerelle showed in the Olympics if you go after him guns blazing he doesn't know what to do.
Big fan of McDermott and I picked the Larry fight well. But I see Price getting a convincing stoppage in 5 or 6 rounds. Think he just his too hard and acurate!!!
Price wins by boxing McD, he'll set him up with the jab and hurt him with that right hand. Can't see McD getting in close enough for long enough to land any big shots. Price will end up stopping him mid way through.
Price for me. Dont think big John will be able to just bulldoze him like he did with Fury. Prices jab is a much more solid punch
Depends on Price. If he doesn't take this one seriously then he could run into a lot of problems. I'll wait to see what his pre-fight comments and weight (and McD's weight!) are like.
Price is much more experienced than what Fury was at the time. And for people saying Price's chin hasn't been tested, I don't think McDermott will get the chance to do so.
I'm not so sure that Price's chin is as china as some are making out. Remember against Ingleby priced dropped his guard after his mouth piece dropped out and took a full flush shot from a 241 man and seemed only a little bit wobbled. Price KO 6 imo.
Good match up this,Price seems to have a lot of power and I actualluy caught his KO of Butler (a decent journeyman) on last weeks KOTV. its unfair to compare him to Larry O of all people. Big John will give him a good test, but ultimately be stopped late I think.
