Price wouldda KO'd that bum anyway. Fury got his ass handed 2 him by mcdermot and got the decision, the same mcdermot price took out in 1! I know the old cliche in boxing styles make fights but in all honesty would be an easy nights work 4 price.
I called this awhile back. I think Price can beat him but fury has now got his name outside Britain while price is unknown. Too big a risk for too little money. Fury beat chirsora who is getting a title shot. Fury is in line this year for a title shot. Why would he fight price when he is in the position he's in? Price needs to make a name for himself...it's not a duck, it's a business move & boxing is about making as much money without getting hurt.

If you look at like that, every duck could be considered a business move. A fighter's reputation will take a beating as a result of a loss. In turn his value will drop (at least temporarily).
It can only not be a duck if he would have relinquished the title no matter who the opponent was. I don't think he would have relinquished the belt if he didn't have to face Price.
Giving up a title to avoid a fighter is definitely a duck.

yeah i understand what your saying,after price beat mcdermott both him and maloney put it on fury by saying 'surely a fighting man like fury claims to be would fight price' .so if he pulled this move like he has ,it would ;look like hes ducking.everyone will have their own opinion on this,i understand the whole,'lets not do it now,lets take different paths and perhaps in a few years it could for a world title and worth a lot more money' a bit like groves vs degale.my opinion is that considering the history between them it wouldnt have been a backward step for fury to fight price which would mean hes cleaned out his domestic competition and could then look towards a world title shot,i can see why this has happened but as a boxing fan we just want to see the best fight the best or competetive fights.
