Thompson stops Krasniqi in 5th!
Heavyweight Tony "The Tiger" Thompson (30-1, 18 KOs) scored a fifth round stoppage over Luan "The Lion" Krasniqi (30-3-1, 14 KOs) in a WBO title eliminator on Saturday night at the Color Line Arena in Hamburg. Krasniqi had good results with his right hand against the awkward southpaw Thompson in round one. Thompson stepped up the pressure and dominated the first half of round two, although Krasniqi rallied late. Both fighters landed good leather in round three in what was unfolding as an action-packed bout. Thompson punished a suddenly passive Krasniqi in rounds four and five with an almost non-stop barrage of jabs and the bout was stopped by referee Mark Nelson with 21 seconds left in the round although Krasniqi was not particularly hurt. Thompson is now the mandatory WBO heavyweight challenger.

Tony is a bad ass Tiger.

I don't know what was wrong with Krasniqi tonight...I admit it: he sucked tonigth ...
The first rnd was even,but after that it was just going downward for Krasniqi...
Thompson didn't punch hard,but alot having no problem getting through Krasniqis defense...
And every time Krasniqis back touched the ropes he stopped punching...
In the end it was the majority of Thompsons hits that moved the ref to stop the fight...

But now what...

WBO Eliminator...and with WBO champ Ibragimov fighting Chagaev in october Thompson
will have to wait quite some time to get his chance...
