    Where to?

    It's going to be obvious he can't hang at elite level, and at 30 years old he can't rebuild

    Does he just accept journeyman status?

    Does British Champion now equal 'Journeyman'?

    He will KO thompson this time around , if he doesnt and loses again then he will have a hard time rebuilding his career

    He'll KO Thompson. He's currently being coached/helped by Lennos Lewis and his team, who himself had a couple of defeats. This will help Price no end and I expect to see a completely different fighter second time around Vs Thompson.

    Price wins so the OP becomes rather redundant..

    Boxing doesnt really work like that though. Lewis also had a great chin, underestimated because he took 2 bombs in 20 years (and still got up).

    Price has a long way back if he loses. Im not sure the liverpool crowd would 'trust' him to headline again and he says hes only interested in world level

    It must be said he deserves credit for rolling the dice and stepping up in a make or break situation, lets just hope for his sake he doesnt break.

    why when he knocked him out while out of shape last time would he bother working harder this time round?

    I think price will come out very cautious this time,he'll of learnt not to rush looking for the ko,can see him winning a points decision/late stoppage/retirement

    TT said in the press conference that Price already was lucky to fight him out of shape and that he will be in shape this time... who knows if TT comes in shape. If yes it will make ot much harder for Price. Cant see him winning. Price has power but TT was able to take huge shots from Wladimir. I doubt that he finds the power of Price impressiv.

    Definitely :good

    At the recent press conference for the fight Thompson confirmed he has re-employed his strength and conditioning coach he had for his Wlad fights and who got him in career best shape.

    Apparently he couldn't afford him for the first fight because Maloney under paid him :lol:

    So, yes he will undoubtedly come in to the fight in much better shape :yep

    I think Price will fight a very safe fight, without taking to many risks. Price UD

    I think the result is still the same this time around.
