Wladimir Klitschko says that he sees a lot of similarities between himself and David Price.

Wladimir Klitschko is not ruling out the possibility of one day fighting British heavyweight prospect David Price.

The Liverpool fighter recently picked up the British and Commonwealth titles with a fourth-round stoppage against Sam Sexton.

There is plenty of buzz about the 28-year-old, who was an Olympic bronze medallist in 2008, and Klitschko believes that he sees himself in Price.

"Maybe David Price and I are going to end up ­fighting," the Daily Star quotes Klitschko as saying. "I will not exclude David from my list of possible opponents. We will see how he develops himself.

"I think David Price is doing an ­incredible job. I see myself in him in a certain way. He is a couple of inches taller than I am, but his technique is pretty much the same as mine, so there are certain similarities between us and my ­trainer Emanuel Steward always points them out.

"Manny always thinks he is copying me and likes the way I fight. I agree with Manny because I used to have my idols. Maybe he looks up to me."

Klitschko currently holds the WBO, WBA, IBF and IBO heavyweight straps.
