By Juan Flores: Tyson Fury has a potential tune-up opponent available to him in David Price when he eventually gets cleared to resume his boxing career. Price (21-4, 18 KOs) called Fury out on social media on Thursday.
By Scott Gilfoid: Former British and Commonwealth heavyweight champion Tyson Fury (20-0, 14 KO’s) says he’s going to knockout unbeaten heavyweight contender David Price (15-0, 13 KO’s) this Summer.
It looks like the 6’9” Fury is suddenly changed his mind about wanting to fight the 29-year-old Price because he’s had zero into in fighting him thus far, and Fury even vacated his British and Commonwealth titles just so he wouldn’t have to fight him.
Fury said on his twitter “When I KO Price, also Phil Fury will KO Liam Walsh this Summer. [Steve] Cunningham, then Price.”
By Rusty Nate: So the recently revised offer is now £1,000,000 for Tyson Fury to jump in the ring with David Price, according to Frank Maloney who goes on to tell us that the fight can happen in either London or Liverpool in June this year.
This situation throws up so many arguments between fans that believe one fighter is better than the other.
I read an article earlier this week that wrote “Price has already proved he has a suspect chin in the amateurs”. This was of course from everyone’s favorite writer and admirer of everything Deontay Wilder.
By William Mackay: British and Commonwealth heavyweight champion David Price’s promoter Frank Maloney just finished offering a more than fair offer of £650,000 to unbeaten Tyson Fury (20-0, 14 KO’s) for a big Price-Fury fight that could take place next year. The offer was rejected by Fury’s promoter Mick Hennessy, as he’s looking for bigger money than that.
By Scott Gilfoid: Tyson Fury’s promoter Mick Hennessy has turned down a huge £650,000 offer from unbeaten British and Commonwealth heavyweight champion David Price’s promoter Frank Maloney for a potential fight in early 2013. Apparently, it wasn’t a big enough offer for Hennessy, although it’s likely a lot more than Fury would get to face one of the Klitschko brothers.
Hennessy said to the telegraph.co.uk “If David Price doesn’t meet our terms, the fight won’t happen. He’s just trying to get publicity by calling out Tyson. If Price and Maloney are going to put out offers, they need to make the offers serious.”
By Scott Gilfoid: Former WBA heavyweight champion David Haye makes it perfectly clear that he has absolutely zero interest in fighting former British and Commonwealth heavyweight champion Tyson Fury (19-0, 14 KO’s). Haye, 32, only wants to fight one of the Klitschkos and then go off into another retirement for however long that lasts. But Haye likes the idea of Fury trash talking Price in order to help build their future fight.
Haye said to Rte.ie “What Fury is doing is good. The more he talks the bigger the fight with price will be. He should keep talking because he isn’t really fighting anyone at the moment.”
By Sean McDaniel: Mick Hennessy, the promoter for undefeated heavyweight contender Tyson Fury (19-0, 14 KO’s), says he’ll match Fury up with unbeaten British heavyweight champion David Price (14-0, 12 KO’s) right now if Price is ready to take the fight. Hennessy says he would even have the 24-year-old Fury put off his title shot plans and face Price first if he really wants the fight.
Hennessy told BBC Sport “If Price really genuinely wants to fight we will put out world title plans on hold and we will make the fight…That is a fight that Tyson will look absolutely sensational in and he’ll take David Price apart…He’s a novice compared to Tyson.”
By Mark Havey: After David Price disposed of the brave Sam Sexton, alot of people will be thinking, who is next? It is too soon for a Klitschko. The winner of Haye vs Chisora could be a good move. But one thing is certain, it won’t be Tyson Fury.
