In an early result from Neubrandenburg, Germany tonight, hard punching Liverpool heavyweight David Price returned with a 2nd round knockout of Ivica Perkovic (22/30) on the undercard of the Cleverly v Braemer light heavy championship card.. Former British and commonwealth champion Price 21/3 18 knockouts was having only his second start since his disastrous European title fight loss to disgraced Turk Erkan Teper in his last appearance in Germany a year ago.. David has had the rare misfortune to lose on only three occasions, each time to a proven drug cheat, American Tony Thompson testing positive for the masking agent hydrochlorothiazide following the fighters 2013 rematch with Price.. Price looks more comfortable now, coming in as a more sturdy 19 stones for his last two outings, claiming that he was too fragile and overtrained for many of his previous bouts, at 6 ft 5, his huge wide frame carries the poundage comfortably.. David is a threat to anybody who is foolish enough to stand in front of him and if he continues to gather momentum, a lucrative bout with the October 8th winner of the Whyte v Lewison British title fight could be down the road..
