He was 6ft 7 when he was 14! Blimey.
When I read that headline "david-price-without-question-audley-is-the-best-i-ve-faced-in-the-pros" I thought no way, he's taking the piss, he must have fought better, surely he doesn't believe that but then I looked at his record he's probably right, which makes me think I might have built him up to be something in my mind he really isn't, I had him down as a world title contender now!
In respect of your earlier perception that David Price was a world title contender, I guess it is relative. Is he of the level of the Klitschkos? IMO, no not yet...but given the correct fights over the next three or four match-ups, then he has a good chance of getting to that sort of level in fairly quick order. However, is he good enough to compete with recent world title challengers (e.g. Charr, Mormeck, etc)? Yes, absolutely...even though he is essentially a 13 fight novice.When I read that headline "david-price-without-question-audley-is-the-best-i-ve-faced-in-the-pros" I thought no way, he's taking the piss, he must have fought better, surely he doesn't believe that but then I looked at his record he's probably right, which makes me think I might have built him up to be something in my mind he really isn't, I had him down as a world title contender now!
Moving on to Harrison, three fights ago he won the European heavyweight title and two fights ago he was competing for a world title. There's a perception that Harrison is s
t, and while this might be true relative to the (largely self-generated) hype and even relative to the innate talent he has, in absolute terms he has a very respectable record. So it is not really surprising that a former Olympic gold medallist, European title holder and world title challenger is the most dangerous opponent a relatively inexperienced pro boxer has faced...
Anyone heard anything more about this story and how true it is, following a link from BoxRec?

Looks that way - most papers are carrying the story today...http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/4579097/...
I'm just wondering, given some contradictory comments on the web, how legit it was that there were only the 2 of them and that they did KO/beat off so many armed men, baseball bats Khan said to start with? Could be... but you know how Khan likes to exaggerate and how much he loves publicity! Makes me wonder.

There are easier ways to get car keys than this. Besides why would you carjack a one off bespoke modified car? (presumably modified badly) and why target him? There must be plenty of RRs driven by unfit middle age men or WAGs in central birmingham that you could carjack easilly.I'm calling BS on Khan (only via the safety of the internet though, not to his face obviously)
Someone on BoxRec (in the know?) reckoned Khan had tweeted where he'd be at what tie etc. and often does the same, which might be sending signals that his car is out there ready to be stolen at certain times. Daft thing to do if you drive flash (daft - it looked crassly blinged up in the pics I saw) machinery.
On a cheerier note, this article made me smile:

its a god-awful custom kit - I've seen it a few times when going past his shisha place in Bolton.
I call a bit of BS too - why the hell wouldnt you go through with the job when you've got baseball bats etc if your jacking someone? you either go 100% or you dont go in at all.
Most likely scenario someone who didnt like him cut him up and called him out for a fight.
Just stuck £20 @ 7/1 on a David Price 1st round KO. This is a foregone conclusion! How anybody thinks Fraudley is going to last past 2 round max is beyond me!! There's just no way in hell.
The bell for the first round is going to go, and he'll staright away look like a lost rabbit, his fists will be all over the place like an amateur and Price will catch him with a devastating right cross and it'll all be over too quickly!

I expect Price will win, probably by KO - though I'm still not sure; if Audley does have the confidence and fitness his words and camp suggest (yes, I know we've been there before!) he could win, at his best he is bloody good, disappointments notwithstanding - but if he does it in 1 I'd be absolutely amazed, as well as impressed. I reckon you've dropped a twenty there!The bell for the first round is going to go, and he'll staright away look like a lost rabbit, his fists will be all over the place like an amateur and Price will catch him with a devastating right cross and it'll all be over too quickly!
