Wladimir Klitschko-Tony Thompson II July 7th

[El Kabong]

I expect Wlad to stop him earlier than the last time they fought just judging from past form and Wlad's a smart fighter, plus if you look at when Wlad has had rematches he's done better in all of them.

Thompson vs Chambers was supposed to be the eliminator bout, but Chambers picked up an injury and they didn't end up fighting. To Tony's credit there's not a long line of folks wanting to fight him because he's bigger than Wlad, he's a southpaw, has a solid chin, good jab, and tough defense....he's not an easy boxer to beat......he's not exciting to watch either, but there's a distinct reason other top teir heavyweights aren't lining up to fight the guy.


Wlad KO/TKO 6-7

I don't see the point in this fight. I probably won't even bother watching.

The first fight wasn't even close and now a rematch with an even more ancient Thompson.

The Klits are becoming a bit sad.

How does Wlad motivate himself to even train for these guys, especially as he has beaten them before?

I suppose thats a skill in itself that Wvlad has

How are they sad? Their opponents just can't compete with them....its like the Dream Team, they just dominate man!

They are contract scrooges, won't fight away from home and both avoided James Toney in his pomp. I will be so excited to see Vitali fight Haye. Not.

At least have the decency to fight one another. It is boxing, nobody is getting killed. Just fight each other and at least give the fans a fight they would like to see.

They do dominate but in a boring way. They spend too much time on there opponents when they could knock them out alot earlier. They play it too safe and what the hell are they fighting this guy for. He looked crap last time, what is he gonna do this time. I would put either Helanius, Chisora or Arreola. Chisora and arreola would actually come to fight and Helanius has not had a chance yet. Im not saying they have a good chance of winning but they are the only ones who will put in the effort to win.

Wlad KO/TKO 6-7

The fight will suck, but nice location:
At Berne, Switzerland (Epix and EpixHD.com): Wladimir Klitschko vs. Tony Thompson, rematch, 12 rounds, for Klitschko's Ring/IBF/WBO/WBA heavyweight title.

I believe Wlad will attempt to KO Thompson, and add some "excitement" to the HW division in one of the earlier rounds, lets hope so, if it goes past 6 rounds it'll put everyone to sleep.
