David Price vs. Tony Thompson II RbR & Discussion Thread

[mathed]

Thompson is officially the HW spokesman for all of boxing

Come on Buncey and co.. "Nothing wrong with Price's chin". There is a problem, stamina was shocking but his chin will always be suspect at best.

To be fair he took some massive shots at the end and he was able to hold on, however his stamina was absolutely pathetic.

Totally gassed after 3....how does a guy who is young and has supposedly trained really well tire so quick? Price doesn't have it in him. Plus like the guys are saying just now, Price was mentally not in the right place, he was still feeling Thompson's punches from 5 months ago.

Price is a nice guy, I've met him but his time at the top level is just unrealistic.

When you’re not confident, nerves can drain you. Thats why calm fighters usually have the best stamina

[Enzo Mc is SHIT]

He took quite a few punches. It doesn't make his chin amazing (or even just good) but it can't be as bad as we thought.

How about the stoppage, I think that even though Thompson wasn't throwing bombs Price wasn't defending himself for 20-30 seconds before the ref gave him a STANDING 8 COUNT?
I think a stoppage was in order he was done.
Although I can see how the ref did give him every chance to recover.

This is absolutely true and understated.

i dont think price's conditioning/stamina was the downfall tonight. thompson landed some pretty solid bodyshots. that was actually some of the best bodywork i've seen at heavyweight in awhile. everytime price started retreating it was after a good shot to the body. people act like it only takes one shot to the head to change a fight at heavyweight.
