Fury looked horrible against the war on drugs.

Wlad and Chisora also looked horrible against Fury.

Price would be the best name on Ali's resume. Dude is like a white version of Foreman with more power. Tells you how great someone like Fury is for schooling Hammer who got past Price.

He's gone from hot prospect to elite journeyman

I guess we should all give Hammer some credit here too. He has been in the ring with some decent fighters. He has a few wins over decent journeymen & lost to Fury. The Wach loss was a retirement injury but he does have wins over Kevin Johnson, Teper & David Price. The guy has been on a roll since he lost to Tyson Fury. Wins over Teper & Price back to back are pretty decent & have now put him in a position to fight for the WBO title. The win today was an eliminator so he is either next in line or could have to face David Haye in a final eliminator for the next mando spot if he gets past Bellew.

Yes, this is a good point. We've focused too much on Price I think, while this is another huge win for Hammer. I think he could make it a competitive fight with Parker or Hughie, hope he gets that shot

GIFS: Price vs. Hammer

I don't understand Prices motivation to box, he looks terrified.

It must be the hope for a decent payday, but it never going to happen now.

He got off the floor in the 5th & took Price's best punches. He was backing him up all night & never showed any fear. He was pretty aggressive & did what he could to get inside. I said a few years ago after the Kevin Johnson fight that he had improved a lot but I never figured he would be anything more than a C level journeyman. He just fought his way into a top WBO ranking with his win tonight. He beat Teper now Price. The guy has another fight scheduled in March so I wonder who he is fighting? I'd assume it would be just a stay busy now that he is in striking distance of a WBO title shot. Price was WBC #12 until pulled from ratings for not signing with clean program in time & was the IBF #8 so Hammer must move up in those rankings along with a top ranking in the WBO.
