Kubrat Pulev v Tony Thompson
This weekend guys, only three days away.
We may get to see another epic post-fight interview with Tony ;D
Am excited about this fight though. Pulev is one of the genuine better heavyweights out there and all but deserves a shot at the title. I like Tony but I reaaaaally do not want to see Tony get a 3rd shot.
Pulev despite his recent run, isn't a massive puncher (despite his CutmeMick size fists) so if Tony's head is in the fight, It'll probably go the distance but promises to be an exciting contest.
I'm hoping for a statement that at least gets Wladimir's attention :cool:
Re: Kubrat Pulev v Tony Thompson
I think Pulev's time has come to get his title shot and I don't see too many problems for him against Thompson. After all Thompsons only getting this chance because he's enjoyed something of an Indian summer with two wins against Price.
Re: Kubrat Pulev v Tony Thompson
I hope Pulev beats Thompson only so that we get to see Wladimir face Pulev assuming Wladimir gets by Povetkin. Otherwise, I'm rooting for Thompson to upset Pulev.
Re: Kubrat Pulev v Tony Thompson
I was never a fan of Thompson.. Even with his close fights with Wlad and two victories over Price, I just dont think he's that great..
It's his size and southpaw style that makes him ackward but lighting wont strike against Pulev..
I got Pulev to beat him via comfortable decision.
Re: Kubrat Pulev v Tony Thompson
This is a good, competitive HW matchup.
Tony Thompson is a durable, strong, fearless, crafty ring warrior who will fight anyone, anywhere.
Kubrat Pulev is a natural-born fighter, a strong, intelligent boxer with very good technical skills.
Re: Kubrat Pulev v Tony Thompson
I put Thompson in my top 5 HW right now, he's a throw back, would have fit in well during the McCall, Holyfield, Lewis, Tyson era.
Happy we have him.
