Can new Price make a real impact
Been keeping my eye on David Price's development now he has up sticks and joined the Krauts. David is working with Tommy Brooks and looks like he has shifted a lot of bulk which means he has been working hard. I know he gets it on this forum but Price looked halfway decent.
He is slipping and sliding and ducking. He is more mobile on his feet and looks a lot fitter. 1 of his recent fights against Pala demonstrated his new found skills. Maybe carrying all that weight before developed into a problem for his stamina which Thompson exploited (in the 2nd fight)
So for a guy who was talked a lot about only a year ago where can he go now?
Does anyone have any hope for Price?........or should he just ''walk on''

Like the lad as a person and hoped good things for him,has good power, but that chin will alway's be his Achilles heel, so unfortunately don't think he wiil make a big impact,hope I'm wrong.

He'd still be a bigger test for Wladimir than Leapai (or whoever else he plucks from obscurity next). Bit long in the tooth to be making huge strides now, though.

As Nico says, the blueprint to beat Price is to give him a cuffing punch behind the ear and he goes down. If they can stop him taking those punches, and his fitness is ok, then he might make Euro level.

He is late 20's heavy, Wlad is pushing 40, Price has a good few years left in him.

A heavy cuff behind the ear will drop anyone. Prices chin has not been the issue it was his stamina.

Re: Can new Price make a real impact
Its a p1ss poor division and he is big and hits hard so he should be able to have some sort of impact. He looks a good three round fighter but I dont think he has what it takes when the going gets tough.

Hard to wish a guy well with two pathetic defeats on his CV to a guy too old to be fighting...
Boxing becomes an even bigger laughing stock If he wins an alphabet toy
