    Default David Price splits with trainer.

    I think the next move for Price should be to split up with Maloney as well. He needs a completely new start IMO and he needs to stop fighting in Liverpool where there are high expectations of him.

    Where do u think price should go from here? Maybe going abroad to get away from distractions would help but would Price want to do that? If he didn't who would be good for him in the UK?

    I agree, id like to see him with a different promoter

    he needs to be with a promoter where he isn't center of attention for a few fights

    im not sure fighting away from Liverpool totally I agree with, perhaps a couple of undercard fights, or maybe a fight abroad then come back for an undercard fight

    With me living near Liverpool I know the talk of the town before the first Thompson fight was that Price was to go on an win a world title. And that pressure would have no doubt doubled in the rematch with Thompson. I don't think he needs that pressure for the time being. He needs to get back to winning ways and working on improving his weaknesses.

    Trainer gets the blame.
    Someone has too.
    Thompson will retire soon so at least he wont have fight him again.
    Price can now take a slow pace back to where he thinks he should be.

    He needs a good conditioning coach that's for sure. Gassing out in the early rounds on the world stage is unforgiveable.

    If Price has a good following in Liverpool then he should stay there. He needs to learn how to handle the pressure and expectation anyway. Price can get back to where he was with little problem it is the next step to world class that he may struggle with.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    He could still beat Fury tomorrow. He has now proved there is nothing wrong with his chin. Nailed on future world champ. FACT.

    This seems to be a trend amongs today's young fighters. Soon as you lose a fight, just blame it on the trainer and replace him. Fuckin rubbish..

    That big goof isn't going to be much of a factor I dont think.

    He had been with him for a very long time and if you look at most premiership football teams if its not working out anymore and they have had the same manager for a long time they look for a new change. It's freshens things up and keeps everybody motivated. Same for Price here, he could improve under a new training regime. It helped khan when he went to Roach.

    Yup. Split with his PROMOTER, first of all.

    Price's trainer could have been kept, but I can understand him wanting to split.

    Adam Booth seems to be the PREMIER trainer in the UK at this time. He should also look into Ingle as well.

    Price can EASILY go to Canada or the USA and get good stiffs by the boatloads. Nothing too fancy, but def a better crop of journeymen and stiffs he can bang up on if he wants to keep up a 3-4 fight a year regimen.

    The fight with Thompson just shouldn't have been made, at any time or point. It was the wrong fight for Price and it showed his trainer's arrogance and his promoter's greed.

    Wrong in terms of Thompson's skill level and frame of mind before the fight. Thompson wasn't a dejected Wlad victim. He REALLY felt- and ought he should- that he fought the best in Wlad and anyone else below that caliber of fighter, which Price is/was and a host of other guys, would have been no match for him to that extent.

    I think it's clear that Wlad and Vitali are thee best out there. Clearly. No one- as does Thompson- should feel bad that they lost to Wlad.

    Plus, Thompson brutalized other fringe contenders before he fought Wlad again and then Price, twice. So he clearly wasn't lacking confidence.

    In addition- Price was simply not ready for that level of competition. He simply wasn't ready and Thompson felt that- and mustered all of his courage and pride to not lose to someone of Price's resume in the game.

    Price was simply not ready, in frame of mind or skill level or experience, for those Thompson fights.

    A big change is good for the psyche as well I think. Gives Price and the public the feeling of a "fresh start". It's worth a shot, Price has undeniable skill and potential.
