Step in and standing count or call the thing. We all know Price is chiny. It was a dangerous fight to Price's health.Originally posted by spud_gun View PostThe ref? Are you talking about the KO?
Nothing the ref could have done there.
Referees are well within their right to step in if they think a fighter is in danger.

No chance of any ref getting in between Price and Povotkin after the first punch had landed. There was a split second between the first and second punch.Originally posted by labourRed View PostStep in and standing count or call the thing. We all know Price is chiny.

More to the point why didn't Price go down? You ever seen a heavyweight drop their hands like that and essentially allow an opponent a free punch?

Fair. I'm questioning it though, he was far away though. As was I. Went into get another beer and missed it in real time.

Price just can't take a punch, sadly. But aye, it's unusual, not that going down would have changed the outcome.
