David Price

British heavyweight boxer David Price has relinquished both his British and Commonwealth title belts as he bids to rebuild his career after successive stoppages.

The Liverpudlian suffered the first two defeats of his career in 2013, both at the hands of American Tony Thompson.

He faces Evgeny Orlov on 14 December in Germany, but the decision to give up his titles means an all-British fight with Derek Chisora will now be unlikely in the short-term.

Smart move...........He gets knackered after two and If he doesn't land the magic right on Chisora he's toast..

Fight useless stiffs and then let someone batter you for a decent payday..

Or just get lost and become a bricklayer........Who cares...

Relinquishing the belts was always on the cards.

Let see what Booth can do with him.

Chisora is the most dangerous heavyweight in the division. If he lands a punch on you the ref stops it.

Lol yeah, funny with all the Froch-GG furore that this slipped under the radar somewhat......he's had 2 in a row now!!

Good luck to Price but I dont think he has what it takes and time is not on his side. In a yeas time he could be in good fights with the Furys, Chisora or Joshua though when he finishes his Eurobum tour.

Chisora needed them though on the back of three or four straight defeats.

To be fair to Chisora's last one it was just a bit strange, it did look liek for a second Pala was done and couldn't continue so can't really say anything bad about the ref, but it was an easy one for Chisora.
