Prograis vs Taylor: David Haye and David Price were allies, now rivals, but were they nearly opponents?

David Haye said: I signed him to Hayemaker Promotions when he came out of the Beijing Olympics in 2008. I did a show in Liverpool where he had a fight. 

I always thought he would do something big in boxing.

If you told me, back then, that Price would not win a world title then I'd have been very surprised
