Price to fight recent Joseph Parker victim, Irineu Beato Costa Junior 16-2 (14KO) on Abraham-Smith Undercard, 21st Feb, thoughts?
decent enough it was never going to be a tough fight i understand the plan is for him to have a big fight next time out in Liverpool.
Decent opponent imo, in an interview Price said there will be lots of scouse fans attending the fight (mostly due to Smith) which he thinks will get him ready for his big Liverpool comeback.
**** opponent. Parker mullered him. Should have had Price in with Parker. If he couldn't beat him it's time to give it up and stick to domestic level.
Price must be regretting a **** poor 2013 and a completely wasted 2014 after watching the bum squad pick up the easiest challenge for a World Heavyweight Title for years. That was a good opening and an easier challenge may never appear again for 2-3 years if Wlad takes the WBC belt as well.
Ireanu Beato Costa Junior??? Price is better off facing Irn Bru Costa Coffee FFS. Sh!tey fight!!! David Price gave up his British and Commonwealth titles (and the chance to face Lucas Browne and Dereck Chisora) to fight these garbage cans instead! The heavyweight division is a joke and once Wladimir retires they should pull the plug on the division because it's full of unfit, sh!tebag ballons. The sport is bad enough just now without this comedy division and it's slapstick characters.
OH **** off Price. When are you ever going to fight someone good. Time is ticking, you cant keep rebuilding.
Waste of time. He shouldve grabbed Kevin Johnson. He'd give him rounds and offers nothing offensively.
Terrible fight. This guy doesn't let his hands go much and lost every round vs Hammer - the guy Fury is going to win every round against.
Price has been out for 6 months with injuries he was originally scheduled to fight Zarate of Argentina, so could have been alot worse, atleast Costa can bang.
