Price Harrison and Degale Live fight thread

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...

Don't like you but agree wholeheartedly.

Gotta say, awesome power by Price.

by Soldier_Of_Fortune Sat 13 Oct 2012, 9:52 pm

O Azzz haha. That was leathal! Fury wouldn't last much longer

by azania Sat 13 Oct 2012, 9:52 pm

Nothing about "classic Audley". He never had a chance. Terrific display of punch power and accuracy by Price. Perhaps I was wrong about him. Chin still a doubt though.

by azania Sat 13 Oct 2012, 9:53 pm

Fury is not Audley.

by RANDY77 Sat 13 Oct 2012, 9:53 pm

What would be a good fight next for Price, except from the obvious...

by Duty281 Sat 13 Oct 2012, 9:54 pm

Price-Chisora next? Let's see how quick Price can KO Derek.

by **88Chris05** Sat 13 Oct 2012, 9:54 pm

They're not showing Audley at all, who is still on the deck. Hope he's not in a bad way.

by WHU_Champo_League_in_7Yrs Sat 13 Oct 2012, 9:54 pm

Can't see too many getting to his chin though, not without taking some huge punches

by azania Sat 13 Oct 2012, 9:54 pm

Put him in against Wlad.

Bunce is a dick

by Duty281 Sat 13 Oct 2012, 9:55 pm

Good to see Audley is OK. He still looked terrified of taking a punch though, and when you're a boxer, that is a pretty large obstacle.

by **88Chris05** Sat 13 Oct 2012, 9:55 pm

Ah, there he is. Looks as if he's fighting off tears.

by Guest Sat 13 Oct 2012, 9:55 pm

I wonder if Gordy is impressed?

by azania Sat 13 Oct 2012, 9:56 pm

Lets hope he fights before Xmas 2012.

by **88Chris05** Sat 13 Oct 2012, 9:58 pm

That last shot really was a sickener.

That's the conundrum.

by eirebilly Sat 13 Oct 2012, 9:59 pm

Well, i am not sure what to make of that. Some serious power but not really a test.

I wonder if Audley will retire now.

by **hampo17** Sat 13 Oct 2012, 9:59 pm

Glad to hear he's ok. On the subject of him looking nervous does anyone else think he puts to much pressure on himself in these situations? He had nothing to lose coming in to this fight but heaped the pressure on with his constant talk of recovering his lost dreams and goals.

by KC Sat 13 Oct 2012, 9:59 pm

No real surprise.
Audley again looked like a rabbit caught in the headlights, Price has knockout power, we haven't learnt anything new!
Can't believe that anyone on here thought it would last beyond 3 - wish I'd put some money on it as I predicted a R1 KO.

by **88Chris05** Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:00 pm

Where's Union!?

by RANDY77 Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:01 pm

Price v Chisora prior to xmas would be perfect for me.

Trouble is, none of the so called 'gate keepers' are going to want a sniff at Price. Can see him having to go straight from domestic to K2 or Haye.

by compelling and rich Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:01 pm

no suprise there then, cant believe some people were saying a shock was on the cards. the biggest shock would have been audley lasting past 3 rounds

by WHU_Champo_League_in_7Yrs Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:02 pm

Haye stopped Audley but he wasn't out like that

Chisora seems a logical choice but chisora needs to get a couple wins or it won't really mean anything

Maloney claims there a £500k offer to Fury on the interview, beats the £100k fury offered if its true

by AlexHuckerby Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:04 pm

WOW what power... He really looks like he's up there with the big boys for power....

by azania Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:04 pm

Don't think Chisora will be prepared just yet on the back of 4 losses in 5. Give Chisora a couple of confidence boosting wins and let them get it on.

by JabMachineMK2 Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:05 pm

Price was impressive. Well in Dave.

by azania Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:05 pm

Maloney talk a load a BS. Bottom line is that the TV companies have to come to an agreement before anything can happen. They should have taken the £100k on offer when Team Fury made it.

by Lance Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:06 pm

poor audley. i think he was genuinely up for this one, which is gonna make it hurt all the more

by azania Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:09 pm

Well he's 40 years old and not getting better. Perspective needed. Devastating power from Price. No doubt that he can hit and KO anyone he lands on. But its easy beating up on overmatched opponents. That being said, he'd KO all of K2's recent opponents with the exception of Haye.

by AlexHuckerby Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:09 pm

Audley to me looked as though he was gonna give it a real go, but just got mullered....

by AlexHuckerby Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:10 pm

Degale next

by Happytravelling Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:10 pm

You can't knock Audley for that. He was standing his ground. Seemed to want it. But he got caught with a decent right. Took it, but the finish was devastating. Audley was spark out before the last flush punch in the mouth.

Well done Az for admitting Price looks a good promise. IMO his last 3 fights have been very impressive for the stage in his career he's at.

Chis won't happen. Fury is a wide boy and will avoid him. IMO Fury is a similar talent but just is too busy boasting and playing the tinker hardman. Whilst Price has just got his head down.

I think Euro title or an American name would be good right now.

Why would he not KO Haye Az? It's not as if Haye has a jaw on him?

You seriously believe the BS that Fury came out with? Why did he drop the belt quicker than a hot cake? Scared pure & simple.
Fury is running scared, probably even faster after watching tonight, he'll just carry on taking bollox on Twit(ter) claiming Price is ducking him when everyone with some degree of common sense knows the truth.

by azania Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:13 pm

He'd have to land on Haye to KO him. If he lands he will. Haye will land first I reckon. Haye has speed and quick reflexes.

Wlad couldnt and I doubt Haye is going to fight any different against price than wlad.

by AlexHuckerby Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:13 pm

If he lands his best I don't know who would take it.

by azania Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:14 pm

KC, I believe it is more to do with TV companies that anything else. C5 had just signed up Fury and probably wanted the fight on their channel. Ditto Sky. If they were both Sky of C5 fighters it would have happened. And at that stage, Fury was probably a notch above Price. Not too sure now.

Agreed - was clearly more prepared to stay in range and engage than usual (though the bar on that score is pretty low). Looked like he came to fight and have a go, but that first big shot completely scrambled his senses.

The finish was just brutal and the reaction of the crowd lacked class IMO. It's not like he quit at the first sign of trouble or took a dive is it?!!

Just glad the fella's not seriously hurt and he needs to call it quits now for the sake of his health.

As for Price, he has the sort of chilling power that gives him a chance against absolutely anybody. Fury makes a smart move by avoiding him like the plague. Skelton is a pointless fight that will end much the same way as tonight. I'd like to see Price in with Helenius next if they can get the fight in Britain.

by EdWoodjr Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:15 pm

No wonder Fury ducked him

by KC Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:15 pm

Price should fight Helenius next - that would be a decent test - although I think Price would knock him out too, if the Chisora fight is any measure of his talent.

by azania Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:15 pm

Haye is a business man who boxes. Price is probably high risk, low reward.

by azania Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:16 pm

What time is it???? Its CHUNKY!! Its Chuuuunky time.

by azania Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:18 pm

EdWoodjr wrote:No wonder Fury ducked him

So when Team Fury offerred Price £100k and Price refused, was Price ducking Fury or is there a better excuse?

by KC Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:20 pm

Haye would fight the same against Price as he did against Wlad, the only difference being that Price wouldn't be as cautious as Wlad & would ko Haye (IMHO)

by azania Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:22 pm

On the back of beating Audley who Price knew would be a neo pacifist? That's a leap of faith.

by alanqlm Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:22 pm

This guy that is fighting De Gale looks like the backside has dropped out of his pants since he got into the ring.

Also looks quite skinny, hope JDG can put on a good show here.

by azania Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:24 pm

Probably the same on Price gave for not fighting Fury initially.

by coxy0001 Sat 13 Oct 2012, 10:26 pm

Feel sorry for Audley, and to be fair he's had an 'ok' career and one that most of the guys down our local boxing gyms (who've never got above area level) would take in a heart beat.

Olympic gold
EBU champ
Knocks out a guy in the last round with one healthy arm

But my god I like the look of Price. Fury has made it pretty clear to most people with a brain he wants zero to do with Price, which is a shame. But at some point the money will be right and hopefully it's when they're both big names in the heavyweight scene.
