Wlad hardly looked impressive, he's far from unbeatable,

Heavyweights suck, I guess that's all we can take from this.
I actually thought Thompson responded really well to start the 11th round. He scored with a big left hand and they had probably the best exchange of the fight there. I thought he did well for himself in at least going out like that, much better then plodding to a decision.
He did come out hard in the 11th...but in the 10th it seriously looked like he knew he was beat and just wanted to get his pay cheque and call it a night. I think maybe his corner atleast sparked that little bit of extra effort...then nighty nite.

I didn't enjoy this fight much. I do think Haye will be a more exciting match to watch after this display.
