David Price vs Tony Thompson II set for July 6th

@philkecho: @DavidPrice_1 secures July 6 rematch with Tony Thompson at Echo Arena. Full story in tomorrow's Echo

 

I made the same thread. atsch

 

Wow fair play for jumping straight back in! Rules Haye out anyway. Hopefully redemption but would have liked him to have a couple before Thompson

 

Is this a wise move by Price. Straight in with a man who forced a stoppage on him in the last fight? I mean he needs to go out there and show people it was a fluke but if this is the case that shows that Haye is not fighting Thompson now.

 

Gutsy but might be ill advised.

Either way, I hope David can get the win this time. WAR Price!!!!

 

Do they really think Price can win this? I thought TT was done after the beating against Wladimir but he proved that he has a lot left in the tank! Also he would be in better shape in the second fight!
TT is a fighter who was just stopped by Wladimir Klitschko! I dont think Price can stop him! TT proved that he can stop Price easy... Would be very hard for Price to win and very risky.
I am going for a second KO win!
Price just cant take a punch! Already got stopped many times in the amateurs! So TT could have easy work with him again.

 

Tyson Fury was right folks, let's not beat around the bush. Just because he got a great win by KO'ing Price doesn't change anything, Thompson is still fat and over-the-hill. He was before the fight and he still will be in the rematch. He won fair and square but he shouldn't have been allowed too, Price should have beat him.

Pricey has got to beat him in this rematch, most preferably by a brutal knockout to prove a point. If David loses again his career could very well be over. Risky but a risk that probably had to be taken in order for Price to win back respect and get his world title plans back on track.

Come Pricey, get him this time mate!

 

Stupid fight, this is one of them fights where you say your fighter was young then you move on you dont rematch them or at least wait a few more fights
Thompson is gonna come in better shape and his confidence high
Price is gonna come in scared
Price's main thing is hes aggressive from the start he has you scared of making mistakes but hes gonna have to lower his workrate so he doesnt get caught
It could go 11 rounds but i think Thompson ko's him again

 

He never was, Thompson knew nothing about it, he said Boxec were liers.

 

Hmm... interesting decision.

He desperately needs a change of management - Thompson was a huge step up in class, too much from where he was at, in all honesty, considering the ongoing debate/concern about his chin.

You don't go from English level to fringe top 5 level in one fell swoop.... would you stick Ronnie Heffron in with Shane Mosley?

 

****ing fair play to Price and Maloney. The big lad can whack and seems a real gent.

I'm rooting for Thompson nonetheless to spite all the 'it was an ear punch' excuse makers.
