You seem to forget one thing. Sanders was pre-Steward era. And unlike to other HW Champs Wlad seems to be better than ever. If Price wants to be future Champ or at leat decent HW in future needs to hire a new coach. Today he would be just another KO for Wlad.certainly. Wlad protects his weak chin by leaning back, clinching and backpeddling and fighting opponents who are not strong enough to hit it with effect.
Price's size negates most of these advantages. Wlad can only backpeddle and clinch to avoid Price's punches. Wlad does these both very well so he gets the nod.
But Wlad is getting older,slower and less fit, and theres some chance Price, at his prime speed and strength now, will catch him at some point. A substantially deteriorated middler like Corrie can do it, so Price, a prime middler who isn't yielding physical disadvantages, can also do it. But its not likely, therefore 40%.Comment

I've forgotten nothing, you've merely forgotten that I've mentioned new Wlad's backpeddle and clinch method of fighting.
NO, he is slowing and getting less fit progressively.And unlike to other HW Champs Wlad seems to be better than ever.
All men do in their thirties. Face facts, unless Wlad is some android/robot, then he suffers as all men do.Comment

That's what Emanuel taught him. The old boxing saying is fighter is as good as his last fight. In his last couple of fights Wlad showed he is a robot. Price showed he's a bum.Last edited by Szef; 03-04-2013, 05:52 AM.Comment

Namely, apart from clinching a boxer is also allowed to punch. And while Wladimir might not have the best chin in the HW history, I've never seen him knocked out by a slapping hook. Besides, he, unlike Price, has some defense.
I wouldn't give Price more than a 10-90, and I'm being generous.Comment
