I dont think Price was being overprotected, he was being overhyped maybe.
I also agree that Tony would beat Wilder at the moment, but Wilder has a lot of up curve obviously.

I think we should all preface these convo's with "I know he's not that good right now, but I'm going to back him anyway"...
because let's face Wilder has no fluidity himself, Thompson even at his snail's pace, is a more fluid boxer than Wilder. He's got some speed and snap to his shots but he's just as stiff as Price is. There's no head movement there, no dancing, no changing levels...I got to see Wilder get that KO in person and he's got that speed to counter anything quickly...he actually showed good patience too, that was good. Anyway, I want to get more excited about him but there isn't much there yet. Best to him thoughLast edited by LA_2_Vegas; 02-23-2013, 07:54 PM.

Im just pointing out how many British fans hated on him all the time, meanwhile they go around championing Price who's been protected as much as Wilder. I think it was fitting that it was an American who made Price do the Khan dance.
The last opponent Wilder fought, on the other hand, was some guy who probably works full-time in a florist for a living. And before that he fought a guy plucked from the NBA developmental league. Before that he fought a professional taxi driver. The one before that was an empty milk carton collector. And before that he fought some 15 year old school kid who was doing work experience at HBO. In other words, nobody he's fought remotely compares to a fat, old Tony Thompson.

i've been watching the game for a long time, but if you don't believe me you can look to the evaluation of wilder by the contemporary experts. the guy barely knows how to box.
what he's got is potential, an tons of it. he's got stuff you don't teach, namely athletic quality, size, and one of the hardest right hands i have ever seen.
I would like to see him fight an experienced journeyman like Monte Barrett or Jameel McCline this year. I think he'll get a lot more out of those fights than the quality of fighters they're putting him up against now.

Why? Theres nothing to prove Wilder is any better than Price. He has the same faults....
Never been a fan of Price or Fury. Pulev is where it's at for me.
I love the subtle little warming up to Wilder by the US posters here. I think it's kinda sweet but unfortunate
