David Price - the most frustrating British boxer of 2016?

Post by jameswilson »

I personally find David Price's career horrendously frustrating right now.

Absolutely no direction other than trying to get on the odd Matchroom bill here and there or the odd German bill here and there. Always against non entities.

Is there any hope for 2017 that he's gonna be in a good fight. Apparently he's being earmarked to fight Dillian Whyte if he beats Chisora but going by some of his interviews he thinks he is above that. Which I don't think he is.

Who are the other frustrating Brits of 2016. Billy Joe springs to mind.

David Price thinks he's above Dillian Whyte? :o :confused:

If he really thinks that, the BBBC need to revoke his licence because he's suffering some problems there.

His career is going nowhere right now & he should be grateful that he's even being thought about as a potential opponent for the Whyte/Chisora winner, because he's done nothing to warrant even that.

As for other Brits who are frustrating; I was going to say Haye, but thinking about it, it's Eubank Jr.

He's on the cusp of big things & he could have fought Golovkin this year, but allowed his father to price him out of a bout.

What's worse, he doesn't stop giving it large on social media, yet he didn't have the nous/balls to step up when the big time came calling.

The biggest & most obvious one & I didn't even think of it! :witzend: :brick:

Fury has virtually killed the HW division & held the champsionship hostage.

OK, there was a reason for that, but if he had anything about him, he would & should have stepped aside earlier & allowed others to take up the mantle in his absence.

Whyte is tougher than Price, but lets be serious, he's beaten no one Price wouldn't beat, and probably by KO.

It'd make more sense for him to fight the loser, hype it as a must win for both.

Helenius said he'd fight the winner, which'd be decent.

whens he next out?
he should have made a play to be on either the AJ/Molina card or the Pulev/Peter card this weekend.
Lewison, Sexton, Allen and Cornish are British guys Price should be looking at for his next couple of fights...

Hearn was talking of matching him with Ortiz ...... He's apparantly now talking about matching Ortiz with Whyte if he beats Chisora. Looks like Price is going to be left out in the wildernessl

Horse is just trying to shock- and is being his usual contrarian self. It's rather boorish now but whatever makes him happy I guess.

Price would get sparked by Lewison.

Lewison is crap and his weight is disgusting for a pro...I think Price would knock him out. Price has beaten tougher opposition than Whyte, although Whyte will have the best win if he gets past Chisora.

I don't think that boxers are little sissy men that can't take a little bit of criticism from some guy on the internet.

Boxers don't need you to defend them tough guy.

On James Quick Tillis group on Facebook Horse, if you call a boxer a bum you get massacred by many many prefessional people. The Tillis group has many many professional boxers as members including many ex world champions. Ive seen a frenzy by people calling boxers bums, its not a sign of respect at all.

Would you call Price a bum if you met him in the street? Face-to-face.
