Which corpse is Maloney gonna dig up next for David Price to fight??

I don't want to disrespect Price as he is a prospect but what happened to the days when boxers where fighting regularly Price only had 4 fights last year and less than a round against Audley Harrison so very inactive back in the 50's 60's 70's and 80's fighters where fighting 8 - 12 fights per year on average sonmetinmes more - actually when Mike Tyson won the heavyweight world champion back in 1986 he won the title with less than 2 years as a pro and that was his 28th fight if you look at his record he had d 3 fights in a month at some stage - boxers today are made too much of too early so Maloney wanting to re-schedule the fight would of given Price 3-4 months between fights - wake up Maloney todays boxers are soft.

Have a bit of a hard time thinking Thompson is such a huge step up as people go on about. What did Thompson do, beat Chazz Witherspoon? No disrespect, but Thompson is frankly old and shot, way past it. Why does Price keep figthing old men.
