DAVID PRICE wants to defend his British and Commonwealth heavyweight titles against bad boy Dereck Chisora.

Del boy's British fight licence was withdrawn after a wild press conference brawl with David Haye back in February but he is expected to reapply next month.

Price, 29, who risks his titles against Matt Skelton at Aintree Equestrian Centre on Friday, said: "Dereck is a fight that interests me for the simple reason that he is a good fighter.

"After I get Skelton out of the way Dereck is the only one left at domestic level.

"There is David Haye, but it looks like a world title or nothing for him."

Promoter Frank Maloney believes it could take place next spring at a football stadium but Price warned: "It would have to be on the grounds that I was defending my British title.

"I want to keep my Lonsdale belt so Dereck must get a British licence."

Chisora hasn't boxed since being stopped in five rounds by Haye in front of 30,000 fans at Upton Park in July when they held Luxembourg Boxing Federation licences.

I really like the idea of this fight and it definitely makes sense. Hopefully it happens early next year. This "football stadium" talk is bollocks though, the fight wouldn't be that big.

 

[Nyanners :sad5]

Price 6 rounds.

Fucking get in!!!!!

Chisora decision :bbb

Not crazy about this fight. Chisora is on a losing streak and has taken some punishment in those defeats even if he did perform well. The stadium talk is ludicrous too.

I don't think it makes mug sense for delboy, if he loses he gets branded as a domestic level fighter despite this being a world level fight and delboy should smash Helenius again and re-establish him self as a world contender

Chisora has no power and a mediocre chin.

Price KO6

I agree, I'm not sure how good a fight it is for Chisora

Will this still go ahead after Skelton lays Price out?

Depends how long your dream lasts.

Probably till Saturday but hypothetically...

I dont see what Chisora can do to win. I think its admirable how he isnt going down the easy rout to rebuild himself because he could take a few of the lower down top 20 heavyweights and beat most of them.

 

[Thomas!!]

I don't think Delboy should take this fight. He should focus on rebuilding and most importantly, rematching and beating Helenius. He should build up a few decent wins before getting demolished again at the hands of Price.

 

[Ciaran]

price is to heavy handed stops him around round 4

I think Delboy will be a great test for Price who has fought nobody of note yet. I see what you're saying about Chisora having a run of very tough fights. Who else would you want for Price that fits the criteria?
