Price Harrison and Degale Live fight thread

by AlexHuckerby Sat 13 Oct 2012, 7:19 pm

First topic message reminder :

Skelton just beat up a Croatian window cleaner, apparently that means he should fight the winner of Price Harrison.... God help us...

Degale is SO easy to figure out. Round 1 Mohammedi - he'll land those body shots all night.

by Cast a Shadow Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:27 pm

The smart move would be to say nothing and navigate a path that doesn't involve him for now. Maybe it will be a world title fight in a couple of years?

That was a FRIGHTENING knockout and the shots that put Audley away would have done for almost any heavyweight in the world.

by WHU_Champo_League_in_7Yrs Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:27 pm

Degale is looking sharp but this guy is made or him, no head movement

The guy has already took a handful of clean shots yet seems willing to walk through Degale

What? You gave the 1st round to Mohammedi? Are you watching the same fight as I am?

by coxy0001 Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:29 pm

Cheer on Degale? Nope, despise him. But I can't support a French guy either....

Lets just hope for a clash of heads and it be called a NC.

No, not on the back of beating Audley, just looking at the boxers involved. Price is similar in stature to Wlad, Haye has an awful work rate, Price wouldn't be as scared as Wlad, Price has [I think] a bigger punch than Wlad but doesn't have Wlad's skills & footwork. Haye wouldn't be able to take a flush shot from Price.

by azania Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:29 pm

Very nice combinations from James.

by JabMachineMK2 Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:31 pm

I'm not sure you're watching the same fight I am - I have the commentary OFF. Degale is hitting with powder punches, he's being bullied into the ropes by Mohammedi and he's getting hit very hard with some good shots to the body. Round 2 Mohammedi. Degale is all show, no substance.

by Sugar Boy Sweetie Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:31 pm

So Price knocks out a 41 year old never was in Harrison. Good for him, but hardly anything to get excited about. I'll continue to reserve judgement on the guy whilst wishing him luck.

Price will have to land on Haye. Moreover footwork is the key to beating Haye. Get the range right and keep the jab in his face. I don't think Price is skilled enough. Apparently Haye owned him when sparring for Wlad.

Mohammedi is not landing. Didn't land anything in the first. Getting pushed back is meaningless unless you're landing something which he isn't.

If James can tone down the idiot act Id like to see him do well... Just please please please don't do that idiotic arm raise thing when you win James.

As for his showing, seems like he is sitting on his punches a bit better though they still don't seem to have much power in them. Really think he could still do ith a change of trainers before he steps up anywhere.

Cynic.

by JabMachineMK2 Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:34 pm

Sorry but Degales punches are being walked through. how are you not seeing his head snap back after the uppercuts through the guard on the ropes on his face?

Degale is losing 3 - 0

Degale is getting pushed about a bit, needs to keep it at long range and keep moving

He might well stop this guy through accumulation, but the Wilcewski fight showed DeGale's obvious lack of one-shot power. There also seems to be a chin issue that has slid under the radar somewhat...

by azania Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:37 pm

What chin issue? He's never been dropped or wobbled.

by alanqlm Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:38 pm

Sorry JabMachine as much as it pains me to say I've really gotta side with Az on this one... 1st and 2nd were clear De Gale rounds. Althoug I could see and arguement for giving the 3rd against him, as Mohoumadi had the better of the last minute.

Frenchman probably edging the 4th in my opinion the scores would be 39-38 De Gale

by JabMachineMK2 Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:39 pm

I don't know how you're scoring this to Degale Az - he's being manhandled and is taking some serious shots

by AlexHuckerby Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:39 pm

Degale is very slappy

by JabMachineMK2 Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:39 pm

Oh and Channel 5 scorecards are a joke.

by azania Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:40 pm

Are you watching Disney Channel of C5?

by WHU_Champo_League_in_7Yrs Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:40 pm

2-2 to me, this guy is winning rounds on aggression and work rate alone without doing too much

Don't think degale has a chin issue, has been wobbled once in his career to the last guy but that also guy went the distance standing in front of Abraham

by JabMachineMK2 Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:42 pm

I am watching the right fight - Degale has hit 1 or 2 meaningful punches the entire fight. Mohammedi is winning 4 - 1

by azania Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:42 pm

Great fight though.

Get away from here. Laugh

by JabMachineMK2 Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:43 pm

I don't know how you can score it any other way.

by **seanmichaels** Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:44 pm

J'ai mon ami par deux. Channel 5 commentary is simply terrible. Woodall sold out now.

by Captain Charisma Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:45 pm

This is a good fight and a pleasing performance from Degale.

That uppercut in the last round was pure class from him.

This fights getting better as i type

by **seanmichaels** Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:45 pm

Az, look at de gales face

by azania Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:46 pm

This guy looks a freaking strong bar-steward.

3-1 Degale after 5 with one even.

Wilcewski had him in far more trouble than he should ever have been in - DeGale fights like a man who lacks confidence in his whiskers and that fight offered a piece of the puzzle.

Honest by fat mick

by JabMachineMK2 Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:47 pm

Degale is having 10 seconds a round of speed and amazing ability then going back to the ropes and losing the fight through pure volume of punches landed.

Mohammedi is winning 5 - 1, he's just showing too much strength.

Degales combos are hitting guard and more guard yet the crowd are loving it.

by azania Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:49 pm

JDG is like Calzadge without the workrate and probably stamina.

by **seanmichaels** Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:50 pm

De gale one up

by azania Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:50 pm

Terrific round and great skill from JDG.

by JabMachineMK2 Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:50 pm

Az, stop trying to condescend and actually tell me what Degale is doing to win this fight.

by Guest Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:51 pm

Class there by Fury. Idiot.

by azania Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:51 pm

Tyson Fury Laugh

by JabMachineMK2 Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:51 pm

HAHAHA Fury mouthing off about Price.

by alanqlm Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:51 pm

I'd score it 58-58 2rounds tied... De Gale looked worried at the end of the 6th...

Woodhall is really beginning to grate ya would think every punch DeGale is throwing is inch perfect, ignoring the fact most in the last couple have landed on gloves.

by **seanmichaels** Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:51 pm

Fury??? Ha ha. Bellew the gay plumber.....
