Maloney just didnt have the stable to put on quality shows and it didn't help when he was saying David Price wouldn't be ready for a world title for another 2 years...i don't think SKY wanted to be in the business of making a bunch of fights between Price vs nobodies plus David has hardly sold himself to the british public unlike Tyson Fury.

I agree, Sky are in the business of putting Matchroom's fighters in with nobodies

Thats it. Who wants to see Price vs mugs for the next 2 years?

Sky were really disappointed in price when he said he needed 2 more years. They flew him out to Klitschko vs Mormeck and were giving him the big build up.

Price needs to find some balls and challenge the Klitschkos.

For fuks sake? He needs to grow some balls are you people serious, Your the type of clowns who put me off coming on here. He's Had 13 Fights!!! Not exactly the best experience to go jumping in the ring with a klitschko. It makes perfect sense to wait, build up more of a fan base and get some more exposure and experience. David price is the best thing to happen to British heavyweight boxing in a long long time! Tyson Fury as entertaining as his fights are is the biggest Hype job going, He will soon be flat on his back, lights out against a shit opponent.

Why rush him? If they take there time they can turn him into a superstar. Vitali will be retired soon and wlad will be beatable by the time price is ready. It's all about timing and keeping price fighting regular against able opposition is the way to do it IMO

The point is, he should have had more than 13 fights. The pedestrian speed at which his career has developed is rightly a cause of frustration for fans. I'm not surprised Sky didn't like the sound of another 2 years' building.

Why rush him? Because otherwise Sky will drop him!

Maloney might have said Price will be ready for the Clits in 18 months/2 years, but that doesn't mean he'd be facing Lativan lemmings in the meantime.

Pricey will surely be fighting European level opponents and experienced Yanks from now on. There are still good fights outside of the Clits.

I'll belive it when i see it, Sky will not drop Price, He comes across great on camera, is well liked, and he's got the talent. Anyone with half a brain knows he's got far more potential than Fury.

Fury - Channel 5.
Price - Non, as yet.
Chisora - allegedly.
Haye - Freelance... does the rounds - highest bidder.
Perez - Non.

Sky don't have any of them. :doh:

We just sit through them building their records against nobodies, then as soon as they're ready for big fights Sky drop them. fornicate Sky.

Steve Bunce has just tweeted:

Sky drop Price. Sky drop Hatton. Why are people still upset with Del-Haye when this has happened? Convenient smokescreen? It's wrong
