IBF HW title

Charles Martin came to England for his 3rd defense against former WBA champ - David Price.

Martin came in heavy, either in hopes to deal with Price's advantage in size & bulk or he just didn't train all that hard?

Either way, most of the fight was just 2 lumbering HW's going through the motions. Until the 8th round when Price came out firing & dropped Charles with a combo & a 7 count. At that point David just kept punching until the ref called a halt @ 2:12 of the round.

Price was up on the cards 69-65 & 68-66 twice. Also landed an incredible 67% of his punches: 244 to 142 (22%).
