Comments Thread For: Alexander Povetkin Brutally Stops David Price in Fifth Round

It looked like Price was out on his feet before that final blow layed him out, but he wasn't. He was just thinking that he'd left the gas on and forgot to feed the budgies. He wasn't hurt at all.

A better ref may have jumped in and stopped it before the final punch. That was brutal!

Well Price did better than I thought he would but that was a nasty knockout.

Wow even the sky sports broadcast team don’t want AJ to fight Wilder next. After Povetkin KO ‘d price they said he was next for AJ. I gues even they are scared of Wilder.

On the replay you can see the delight in Povetkin's face when Price is stunned "Oh yes! I've got a free punch!"
I agree that a sharper ref would've DIVED right in there. Lucky it was just oxygen that Price needed.

Garcia-Zlaticanin KO was fine, but this one is brutal and ref should not have allowed it, sure

Price almost caught the upset

Knowing Pricey history I think the ref should have jumped in right there. But am glad us snowflakes didn’t get to see a body there.
