    Flipping hell..

    The first fight wasn't even all that either..

    ***ton again IMO. Haven't seen Sam of late but i do feel around the time of beating Rogan and fighting Chisora again he seemed to be trying to become a pure boxer and it stayed that way with Larry and he made harder work of it then needs be IMHO.

    Larry's there to be hurt, Close the range and let hands go fast and it's job done for Sam. All about how he approaches it..

    Can't believe i've made a post this long on this fight :lol:..

    This should be billed as "The *** Machine vs. The War Machine".

    I like Sam, But he fought scared when he fought Price. He didn't commit to any attacks and was a sitting duck. He saw the KO's and tried to take Price into latter stages and avoid any risk but in hindsight would of been better off giving it a go.

    Terry.I get the impression you know whats going on around the gyms.Are you saying this based on some of this inside info?If you aren't I can't see that Sam has done very much since Price.Wins,Ill grant you,but over East Europeans who on the face of it aren't all that good.Regarding Larry,I think his layoffs have done him no good whatsoever,and on his best day he couldn't beat Sam.

    Thats true,and ***ton would have beat the other 2 mentioned opponents also.But it was a very delicate situation to be fair.

    Always thought the *** Machine was half decent (around British title level) until he lost his way after the Price fight. Winner faces Audley Harrison?

    Séxton takes this. Agree he's around British title level, borderline Euro.
