To be fair, it just made him look very stupid....The fact he sounds like a bit of a simpleton when he speaks, doesn't help when he tries all this trash talk - Price is actually quite intellegent, so its highly unlikely that he would even give Fury's nonsense an ounce of attention anyway.

The problem for Fury is that most sensible Boxing people can see that there is a massive gulf in talent and class between the pair, so he has to continue with this stupid trash talking and it just makes him look a fool.

Ultimately, Fury needs Price a hell of a lot more than Price needs him, so I think we can expect more of this tedious stuff from the gormless gypsy.

Think that possibly says more about you than Tyson Fury's intelligence.

I found it embarrassing and cringeworthy.

Will be surprised if these 2 fight in the near future. Fury has ducked Price once and now that they are with separate broadcasters he suddenly decides he wants to fight him.

DeGale put together some blinding combinations last night (although he is a slappy puncher), but then sat with his back to the ropes for minutes at a time, letting his opponent plod towards him.

I struggle to be convinced by DeGale.....He makes what should be comfortable fights look difficult.

The guy he fought last night was durable enough, but was extremely limited - A top class fighter would have stopped him at some point, yet DeGale constantly let him off the hook and, at times, actually made him look threatening.

Personally, I reckon DeGale has stamina issues, and won't get any further than the European standard he is presently at - I think he will be found out again by Groves if the pair get it on again.

Price-Harrison went entirely as predicted.

I for one seriously hope David Price vs Tyson Fury gets sorted, I personally think there's a gulf in class already between the two and although the chin of Price hasn't been tested yet we've seen Fury wobbled/floored by guys who don't have the ability and possess less punching power than David Price, I'd take David Price in under six rounds.

As someone has already mentioned earlier I think, neither of them NEED to fight the other right now. The last thing either of them needs on their record is a loss. Just bide their time and build up to it in a couple of years time when there is more at stake. And at 24 (I think) Fury needs Price a lot less than a lot of people seem to think.

If/when they do finally get it on it will be an all-out brawl, blood and guts everywhere, lawlessness running amok, 100% carnage.

And that's just going to be outside the ring!!

fury is just making himself look more of a numpty than he already is

good bye harrison...a nice punch from price at the end to break his nose and to say 'and dont come back!'

really impressed with degale..that guy he fought was one of those guys boxers hate to be in with and avoid like the plague..well done to degale for getting the job done..some lovely combinations he threw

I think he does need Price, because that is his payday..... The problem for Fury is that he has to have that payday fight before he is exposed by a journeyman in a run-of-the-mill, low pay bout. If/when that happens he has nowhere to go, because he is making numerous enemies with all his idiotic cheap talk.

Of course, the same could be said of Price, but I think most observers are in agreement where the real boxing talent lies with these two.....Price looks and acts like a class act, Fury is an accident waiting to happen.

Re: Boxing Round 2 : Wed Oct 17, 2012 10:38 pm  

Would not!!! Like to be in the crowd for Fury vs Price. Manchester + Liverpool + the travelling community, they will be fighting in lumps outside the ring. Price by plenty by the way, totally unconvined by Fury.
