    Chisora, could see at some point being euro-lower world lever fighter.

    Also looking forward to seeing how Tom Dallas turns out. He reminds me of an english Ivan Drago... minus the performance enhancing drugs.

    Dallas for me...

    I think he's got a lovely style and will, in my opinion, fight for a major alphabet title before he retires.

    Price for me, and I reckon he could go further than most others seem to think and claim a tin pot world belt. Early on in his career and I'd love to see him dominate, but the truth is that he's not been nearly active enough to judge what potential he has at pro level. Hopefully he'll get a few more fights now with FM (Hayemaker previously and suffered from Setanta's collapse).

    Also, questions around his chin interest me. Is this presumption based solely on him being wobbled by Cammarelle (spelling?) in the olympics? Because he seemed to take that shot on his debut (when he dropped his gummy) alright considering it caught him flush with his hands down.

    In all honesty Drago/Dolph Lundgren would of beat all of them easily I feel.

    Only time will tell :good

    But, please note, I didn't say he'd WIN a significant alphabet title, just fight for one!

    I think a lot of the doubts surrounding Price's chin emanate from the fact that he was floored three times by some Indian fella called Johnson Vargese in the 2006 commonwelath games semis.
    However Price has denied being floored by Fury in the abas.

    Chisora is the best by a comfortable margin.

    Fury - No co-ordination or balance as a fighter, can't time punches against a moving target. Crap defence.

    Sexton - Soft chin, not the best of stamina.

    Price - Soft chin, hasn't looked great as a pro and was stopped several times in the amateurs.

    Larry - No technique, like a caveman.

    Dallas - Has some potential to a certain level but very stiff and robotic, needs to step up in competiton.

    All can become ok domestic fighters but can not see any going much further. Price will get stopped long before he reaches his potential. Fury looks awful. Larry is shite. Dallas is very ordinary. Sexton has probably reached his level. Chisora is fat.

    Richard towers, is not as good as all the fighters on the original list, so he is going to struggle.

    At this weight it can be ended in 1 punch for anyone. I don't care who you are if an 18st bangs you on the chin your going down!! Simple as that.. I think Fury will be found out as soon as he meets someone heavy handed!!
