And should Price lose again he's finished.
The only way they'll rematch is - Price wins a couple of comeback fights and Thompson beats Tyson Fury (a fight that does make sense). Then it will be much bigger than the first (which wasn't a big deal).
Price has made it almost impossible for Thompson to say no though mate.
He said in that interview, he'd fight in the USA, he'd give up a lot of purse money and Thompson just Ko'd him side 2.
Thompson might make price retire when he bites his hand off for this deal.
Say no to what? Thompson doesn't have a promoter, a TV deal or a fanbase. Why would anyone promote the fight in America? They are both complete and utter nobodies. There's no money in that.
Price saying he wants a rematch is par for the course.
Thompson was on $40,000 and now wants $140,000 for the rematch. Price said - "If it meant me taking a little bit less money then it is something we could look at"
