Anthony Joshua set to defend IBF heavyweight title in Battle of Britain brawl with Scouse heavyweight David Price

Promoter Eddie Hearn considering giving 2008 Olympics ace a crack at IBF champ - if he beats Dominic Breazeale this month

DAVID PRICE is set for a Battle of Britain brawl with IBF heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua.

Price tumbled out of their top 15 after getting KO’d by Erkan Teper in a European title fight last July.

But the German has since tested positive for a banned substance and been suspended for two years. And the IBF now rank Price at No 12.

Price claimed Olympic bronze in 2008 – four years before Joshua picked up gold in London.

Joshua will make his first title defence against American Dominic Breazeale at the O2 Arena on June 25.

And it is understood AJ's promoter Eddie Hearn is currently considering giving Price a crack at him - should he successfully negotiate that fight.

Scouser Price, 32, returned to winning ways by stopping Vaclav Pejsar on the Tony Bellew undercard at Goodison Park last month.

WBC king Deontay Wilder is also sounding out Price but the 6ft 8in Brit knows  a shot at  Joshua is a far more lucrative prospect.
