Even so, the rounds it took them is very telling. Yoka and Ortiz are in a different world to Price and while Allen isn’t great, his chin has always held up. Like you say, price has stopped nobody.
Mr Thunder, noooo, don't say it like that, nooo, no, nope, naaaahhh, don't tempt me, don't do that to me.. please stop that line of thinking.. Hang on a moment, Eddie is that you?
Also true, but that resistance doesn't last forever, especially when you rely on it as much as Allen. The fact I'm having so many arguments with myself makes me very excited for the fight.
All that weight Allen has lost could end up weakening that iron chin of his. Just another factor to consider..
I'm going with the guy in form which for me is Allan. What time should it be on at? I'll be moving around the pubs so need to get my timing right
Allen seems to be buying into his own hype during these fight week interviews. Would quite like to see Price spark him now but can’t see it happening
I think Allen will win by overhand right, around round 5-7. He seems confident has put a lot of effort in it seems, but here's a question. What happens as Heisenberg says, let's say he gets KOed by big Pricey, or some cut stops it when hes put so much effort in and come up short again (like Lenroy rematch). Does he go off the rails and reverts back to type, come back fighting out of shape etc?
I think he’s confident and in a good place which is a good thing for somebody like Allen with all the problems he’s had previously.
But he’s still just a less fat Dave Allen.. and probably couldn’t win the British heavyweight title. Durability and likeability is all he has... He was making Lucas Browne look a world beater until that body shot
Next to Price, Allen looked almost comically small. This will be man vs boy. I'm back on the Pricey train.
Price is the far better boxer with a massive reach advantage. If you couple that with his power and allen’s defence then it’s almost certain he’ll be hit heavy numerous times in the first 2/3 rounds. I don’t think Allen will stand up to it. I’ve heard people say he hasn’t got the power anymore. I’m not having that, look at Povetkin, Ali and Little.
