    What happened with David Price?

    Coming up he was supposed to be the next big thing in the UK, only to be a hype job losing twice in a row to Tony Thompson who was way past his prime.

    What went wrong with David Price's career? What mistakes can be learnt from this, was it too soon of a step up in competition?

        Is his downfall just that he has a bad chin, or that his boxing isn't good enough so he always manages to take a monster shot to the chin?

              nah wasn't too soon , his chin would have always got found out at some point. They didn't exactly throw him to the lions by throwing him in with grandpa Tony, he should have done a job on him.

                Well you could tell he had chin issues. He couldn’t pass the Tony thompson test. If you cannot pass that as a prospect then you know you are no good. He could have made millions, he had the right image, the right potential for following as well. He just came from the Olympics and everyone was hyped up for him over here. He was build a pro career momentum and then boom. It was all over before it started.
