    The dough might temp Tony back to the UK though. If they paid him $750k say.

    I watched the post-fight presser, he said he would only fight Price for more money or in D.C, Price has already stated he would travel to D.C and take a smaller cut if he had to. Plus he signed the contract, Banks signed a similar contract to fight Mitchell and now they are fighting a rematch.

    No. The can't enforce **** period. Title fight or not. They can't make Thompson come back to the UK or fight Price again anywhere. Got it?

    Do you ever get bored with being constantly wrong?

    I'll give you one recent example to ponder; Mitchell vs Banks, non-title fight & Mitchell loses by 2nd round tko.

    Guess what happens next

    If Fury signs the contract he will be back in the UK. Should be a good scrap. He already shattered Price's Glass Jaw. Fury is next.

    Going to be hilarious watching a shot, fat, unmotivated 41 year old American shatter your Heavyweight Championships dreams. Literally. :lol::lol::lol::lol:

    Tiger will probably take the rematch. I could see the money tempting him. I mean, why did he go fight Price in the first place? He knew he was being brought in to lose...

    Tony Thompson is not going to fighting David Price again. Period. Has nothing to to with it being a title fight or not even though Mithcell-Banks was for a Regional Belt.

    There is not one damn thing Price can do but pick up the shattered shards of his Glass Jaw and move on. Thompson is moving on. :hi:

    He clearly explained why he took the fight. For the Opportunity. He won and is moving on. He can do such.

    You really dont have any understanding of how the sport works at all Rico.

    One final question: If Prices team do exercise their rematch clause & Tony declines & fights someone else what do think will happen?

    I don't know, Rico, he looked like an absolute slob at the weigh-ins. Didn't seem like he was very motivated but he took his chance and found Price's glass jaw.

    :huh Thought you said you liked Fury? This isn't about chins anymore like your usual ramblings, it's turning into more of an anti-british thing. :think

    One of Thompson's best friends trains at the same gym I do. I know what their plans are. It is Fury. Price can't do **** about it. Sorry.

    Nothing will happen. Period. They are moving on.

    Fury is an entertaining guy and is a legit fighter unlike Price. Doesn't mean I think his Chin is worth a crap though. Thompson is going to shatter it. He plans to be at Fury's fight against Cunningham. :good
