Surprising move. Thompson must have got a big payday. Hopefully there's no dive.

Yeah respect to price for taking the rematch so soon, alot of fighters never go for the rematch after getting knocked out. I won't be betting on price this time, won't be betting at all, but if Price doesn't start dropping his guard and fighting ******ly sloppy like last time he has the ability to knock out Thompson.

I thought Thompson said he wouldn't come to Liverpool again? Surprised it's in Liverpool.
If Thompson KO's Price again his career is over.

That loss is probably eating at Price and since TT could be a fight or two away from retirement, only a small window to make a rematch. As a fight fan, I like the all-or-nothing gamble - if he can come back and beat TT convincingly then maybe I become a believer. If he was younger maybe I'd feel different, but he might not have time to get over the hump again if he goes off and starts fighting other guys...it really doesn't matter who he fights now, they are all going to try to test that chin.
TT style/skill exceeds Price and it didn't take him long to get David's timing after he showed his cards in that sequence against the ropes...after that, TT basically had his hands down leading up to the KO. Price will have to show some resolve and patience to beat him.
Getting up from the knockdown and taking the immediate rematch are two things that make me believe he still can do it.Last edited by LA_2_Vegas; 03-27-2013, 06:05 PM.
