David Price excited ahead of Ondrej Pala test

Price excited ahead of Pala test

British heavyweight David Price has revealed that he is confident of "getting the job done" against Ondrej Pala later this month.

Pala was recently stopped by Dereck Chisora inside three rounds, but despite the Czech fighter's defeat, Price is expecting a tough test in Berlin on March 29.

The 30-year-old told the Sauerland official website: "This is exactly the type of fight that I need. Pala is a guy who isn't afraid to come forward and trade. We saw this when he fought Chisora.

"Although Dereck got the stoppage, Pala was holding his own and I don't think he was ever in any real trouble, he just got spun into the corner and the fight was waved off.

"Now it's my turn. I'm in great shape. Everything has been going really well in the gym. I am looking forward to getting in there and exchanging blows with this guy. I am confident that on March 29, I am going to get the job done."

Price is attempting to rebuild his career after successive defeats to American Tony Thompson in 2013.
