He looked quite good blowing out the seasoned journeyman John McDermott and is now looking at Tyson Fury. He's quick for a big guy and has a good amateur background. 28 years old so he has time to make an impact. What do you think?

He has loads of potential/talent and could go far. Still a lot of questions he has to answer, especially his chin.
He has had a slow start as a pro. Hopefully he will push on now.

Thought Price looked very good but can't really judge on that one fight.
He's been talked about quite a bit since olympics but injuries have hampered his progress a bit. Apparently though, while he wasn't fighting, he's gone around the world and done some seriously good sparring with some of the top guys which should hold him in good stead.
His physical attributes alone should get him quite far and if he turns up in shape, the heavyweight division is sooo poor at the minute that he could be only 2 or 3 fights away from a title shot.
As for Fury, the rumours are that he will vacate his title to avoid Price, which for him is possibly a good move as i'd fancy Price to win. But if Fury does duck him, his reputation and all the talking he does will never be enough to get rid of the 'pussy tag.

David Price is clearly superior to Fury.
I wouldn't like to see the 2 fight for the British however. Best in 12-18 months time for a world title eliminator.

thing is with Fury is he's not much of a mover. Price looks like a much more natural fighter. I think it's good sense for Fury to avoid him right now. he has to be thinking about Degale and Groves. Degale has looked lost since he got beat there and he's just split with Warren.
Price - Fury could be a major money spinner in a couple of years.

The thing about Pricey is he started off with Haymaker, then they lost their contract with Setanda therefore there was no TV rights and no fights for him. Lennox Lewis had double Pricey's fights at the same stage of his career. Now his with Maloney, it will be good to see him more active. Maybe 2 or 3 fights, blow out Fury, 3-5 more fights then a title shot. But he needs more fights!
He'd kill Chisora though.
