    No, he can still make a living beating up F-level bums, like Shannon Briggs does

    Fight some bums from the alley, rack up a few victories by spectacular KO, and then get another fight with a big name for a lot of $$$. Get sparked out again, rinse and repeat.

    He could do it for a few years and retire when he is too old / shot

    it's better than flipping burguers

      If he's happy fighting around the domestic scene, then no.

      I think stepping up anywhere above average domestic level should be out of the question.

          I like the guy but it's obvious he should retire. A puncher's chance is not enough to take risks on anymore top class heavies. He is not built for it at this level, dangerous as he is. It's not going to change.

            How much does he make fighting bums? Price was a gas engineer, it is something to fall back on when he's not boxing anymore. He's not built for this game so I hope he doesn't get seriously hurt.

              You are right on that

              the way he totally froze after being clocked by Povetkin, right before the final punch dropped him like a sack of bricks....that was very telling, he has no survival instinct

              Normally, a fighter would cover up, try to hold, or escape the hell outta there without even thinking

              Price just stood there like a tree waiting to be axed (and axed he got)

              This guy is no fighter

              didn't know he was gas engineer sounds like a decent paid job, maybe he should just retire then

                    He should never even been allowed to fight Povetkin
                    Hearn keeps destroying his fighters.
