British Heavyweight David Price Splits With Trainer

David Price has announced that it has been mutually agreed that he and Francis Smith will no longer be working together and have parted on good terms.

After a careful review of his Career, David came to the decision that a change was appropriate in order to get where he wants to be. It is not a decision that was reached lightly or hastily.

David said; “Franny will always be more than just a trainer to me, I consider him as a very close friend so making this decision was extremely hard, he did a fantastic job making me the first Liverpudlian British & commonwealth heavyweight champion.

“I have made up my mind that I have to start a new chapter in my career and I am sad that I will be starting this without Franny, but for me to achieve my goal as heavyweight champion of the world, I feel that I need a change. Franny has always been a huge part of my career and after discussion we’ve agreed that this is the best way forward”

The goal now is to find that right man to take David to the next level.

“I am in no rush to appoint another trainer and I am open to discussions. Whatever happens I want to thank Franny for all his hard work and support and wish him all the success for the future”.
