Price looking for rematch.

[Master]

Fury is the real deal, wait and see.

A rematch doesn't currently make sense.

There was no title on the line and Thompson would now demand much more money which means Price takes much less. It wont be easy to immediately re-sell and Thompson has zero following in America, he's an undercard fighter, the fight wasn't even shown on TV, so it defintely isn't going over there. 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"

I want to see the rematch, I don't know if Thompson can do it again, for sure.
If the rematch turned out the same, it would be the end for Price in my opinion. He could fight on but his confidence would be gone, and so would everyone else's.
Thompson will demand more money and above all more respect. The more I think about it, the more I want to see it.
The rematch is a big gamble for Price, the man has a set for sure and plenty of confidence. Good luck to both if the fight happens.

....and Price would more than likely spark him, so what's that tell you?

Your going to have to start disagreeing with me again because Fury has settled in to a competent experienced pro and is getting more and more polished with each fight whereas Price has regressed.

No offense, but price cant even spark johnson.

Audley vs price 2 is what we all want to see..

You mean Kevin Johnson the guy that also went the distance with one of the greatest heavyweight power punchers in the history of the sport?

[IamInuit]

Good for Price. I hope he gets it. I think he looked past Thompson to the pot of gold and got caught. I think its the best way. Don't take two steps back by fighting a couple of no hopers. That wont prepare him for squat.

Fury should not even enter the picture. He's got a date with Cunningham.

[tysonesque]

Unless he's offered big money, I can't see Thompson taking the rematch anytime soon. It would be good to see it because Price has come badly unstuck and now looks a long way from being a serious contender and there are questions that need to be answered.

Price needs a credible opponent in his next fight no matter what. The can't just throw him in with another journeyman.

I personally can't see any fighter who gets knocked senseless by a shot like that right hand getting anywhere near a world title. He should take a shot at a decent European fighter and then go after a massive pay day against Fury because that's about as much as I see Price getting out of his career.

Nonsense. Plenty of now all time greats have been laid out cold early in their career including the present champ.

Not from a shot like that they haven't.

It perforated his ear drum. But I suppose his inner ear is also made of glass. Fact of the matter is that area is probably responsible for just as many stoppages as shots to the chin.

It wasn't a hard shot and Thompson is not a puncher. Price's punch resistance was already questionable from his time in the amateurs and he's just been flattened in two rounds by a shot that probably wouldn't have even wobbled most heavyweights, let alone perforated their ear drum and had them all over the place.

Anyone who can't take a shot like that is not going to be winning world titles. Regardless of that, Price still fights like an amateur and looks like a robot in there. The Thompson fight was the first time Price has faced any kind of serious challenge and he failed it miserably.
