Comments Thread For: David Price: He Broke My Nose, 30 Stitches in Mouth, 12 on Eyes

[Navalny20!8]

Hell, at least he gave a decent account of himself while he lasted. We all knew he was getting ko'd, it was just a matter of when. At least leading up to it he managed to get a knockdown and rattle Pedvetkin a few times....in reality, everyone who has beat him had been busted for PEDs at one time or another so he always has this unfortunate excuse if he needs a final payday-lol

Quoted for truth.

David Price is just an unfortunate case of a fighter who lack the conditioning and doesn't know how to defend himself well, Price has the power to KO anyone in the division It's just obvious the negative outweigh the good massively.

I was a huge price fan until the second Thompson fight, he gave up, to me he’s a version of Audly Harrison with a huge punch.

Thing is, Price could have easily won this fight but he is so tentative and afraid to open up that he doesn't follow up when he hurts someone. He is so afraid to get hit that he won't let his hands go to take advantage of opportunities that are there for him. He won't even commit to throwing a stiff jab because he doesn't want to get caught or countered. He may not have a good chin or even know what the definition of stamina is but he should be beating a lot of these guys based on his size, reach and power alone. He's just subconsciously too scared to expose himself by going for the win. I was actually surprised he got up from that 1st knockdown. That was a big shot and I didn't think his chin could survive a shot like that.

I wanted him to win so he could get a big fight and a big payday but maybe it's for the best. Putting someone in the ring with Wilder or Joshua that fights as scared and tentative as he does would be extremely dangerous to his well being. Good guy, wish him the best.

Povetkin makes it the 5th time David Price has been KOed.

Price’s career, health and livelihood will never be the same...its over. PED users will go on.

Regardless of how bad this courageous trooper is, those two test positives for PEDS should have resulted in disqualification losses. Are not these athletes lives more important than to ignore blatant cheating. This is crazy.

No wonder boxings internal reputation has a massive black eye.....or should I say punctured lung......Its OK that boxing doesnt seem appropriate for Price, no shame in that......but I'm really surprised boxing hasnt reached that next level as of yet with regard to blatant cheating.

Shane Mosley also got one over on Oscar and that fight was more high profile. Anything goes in boxing - even greedy promoters stacking pots of gold with no regulations from anywhere. Sad state of affairs indeed.

Dam price you got sort of ****ed up in that fight.
You got balls though saying you loved every minute of it.

[PensionKiller]

I'm more surprised he never broke a rib or anything, he was constantly smashing in hard body shots.

That's boxing for you. Some people in the World hit just as hard as some trained boxer I am sure if it was a heavy bag. However they simply have zero skill to land a punch in the ring or have any kind of fitness or weight making ability.

At World level, 1 percent difference can be all that is needed to be the top dog.

Sad for David Price.

He just pay for his perverted politicians who never had a worthy word about the Kemerovo tragedy.

They prefer to scream "wolf !" about russia and keep mute when their children are being ****d (Rotherham child sexual exploitation scandal and Newcastle sex abuse ring)

Dirty England

they were bad but was there really any need to involve such evil crimes in a boxing thread?

thats disgusting mate.

This what happens when UK heavy weights start believing the hype and fight a legit top 10 guy.

Expect Whyte and other UK bums to suffer the same fate as soon as he's matched against a legit top fighter.

What hype? Nobody in the UK gave Price a shot against Povetkin, it was called a mismatch from the start, but it's not going to stop us from supporting our guy, especially as Price is a genuine top bloke.

Ignore him. He pedals the same boring agenda with every post.

But yeh it was inevitable that Povetkin would destroy Price considering Price is basically glass. Price just had a punchers chance and was always gonna be outclassed by Povetkin.

You kinda gotta feel bad for Price to be fair. It was obviously too big an opportunity to pass up but let's face it Hearn wanted him in the ring with Povetkin so the UK public could witness him destroy someone to gain more clamour for a Joshua v Povetkin mandatory.
