    I know he is not exactly currnet any more with all thats going on in the heavywieght division and after his KO losses. However I just wondered if there was any news on if he intends to come back or retire etc?

    Thanks

    I don't known his particular case but I do know that boxes who carry a huge amount of power (Enzo being another one) find it very difficult to walk away as they always know that they have the potential to knock out anybody on the planet, the problem is that the lack of boxing skills at the highest level tends to mean that they get tagged before that can get those shots off.

    Apparently he's back next year. Saw somewhere he's put on some bulk as well?

    shameful how he did a runner after he got done by Teper. Just shows how mentally fragile the bloke is.

    Make no difference if you can't build a chin sadly.

    Cant believe you cant make a good career path for david price. Hes flawed in many ways. He should get with frank w arren. If theres anyone that can pick a decent route for price to get him as far as he can with w arren.

    Pricey should just go for broke in some fights. Get his shots off first and blast his opponent out of there instead of fighting tentatively and getting caught.

    Pricey could still beat a lot of the Heavyweights out there for me is just seriously lacking that confidence. Price vs Chisora is a 50/50 fight.

    I'd much rather see Price v Chisora than AJ v Chisora.

    Come to think of it I'd also rather see Price v AJ over AJ v Chisora too, first to land clean wins :lol:.

    Agree price shouldnt **** about in there. Go for the kill before he gets taking out. Just posted about joshua doing the opposite but price really does have too many flaws to mess around in their any longer than he needs. His jabs actually getting worse as time goes by.

    Becoming gun shy isn't he?

    Bit like Audley.. look at his gold meal winning performances, volume decent hand speed good shot selection. To him basically sitting bolt upright with his guard up looking to land a left hand counter...

    people shouldn't be getting near Price they should be in no mans land waiting for right hand bomb. he should beg Wlad to teach him the jab and grab

    He's training- that's it. If he can address his mental issues in the ring, work on his footwork and most importantly use his jab effectively he has a chance on the Euro scene.

    Hire hypnotist Paul McKenna.

    Yeah he lost the few good qualities he had after the Thompson fights. Just doesn't have the same amount of confidence.

    He should fight Deontay Wilder and pick up a world title

    One crumb of comfort for Price, after Saturday I'm pretty sure if Teper landed the same shot on Joshua he'd spark him out also.
