The Liverpudlian suffered a fourth-round stoppage loss to Chisora at The O2 on Saturday night after stepping in as a replacement opponent following Joseph Parker's withdrawal.

Chisora can look ahead to a possible fight against Parker or Oleksandr Usyk, but Sky Sports expert Nelson admits Price must reconsider his career after falling short again.

Nelson said: "Where can he go? I was hoping the penny would drop for David Price, because I think he's one of those fighters that is a lot better than what we see, and he's better from what we've heard in the gym - this guy is unbelievable.

"He's just not been able to perform and put it into practice when it comes to a certain level.

"It's down to David, it's not down to me to write this guy off. Domestically, will he be a gatekeeper? You don't know."

Chisora called again for a fight with Joseph Parker after halting Price

Fellow Sky Sports pundit George Groves believes Chisora would find it difficult to overcome pound-for-pound star Usyk, but would fare better in a rescheduled fight with Parker.

Groves told Sky Sports: "Usyk is a tough fight, I think he's one of the best, if not the best out there - and I'll probably take a bit of stick for that - in the heavyweight division. But maybe this is the time to get him before he properly settles in.

"I think Parker is a great fight, interesting fight, and, again, Parker likes to box long, he could get inside and try and break his heart. It would be a great fight for the fans."
