    No one would say he was great but you have to admit he was great to watch.

    Used to love watching him fight.

    A good fighter to watch but a bit limited IMO.


    His hart and courage won him more fights than his skill at the top level.

    The Rothman and Sellars fights were classics.

    So did Tyson but you were not going to say that to his face either.

    Carl Thompson in my eyes is a british boxing legend. His Fight against Rothman was an Incredible, the way Rothman was dominating, looked like carl wouldnt get out the ring alive, but he made Rothman pay for his feathery punches and showboating by putting him down in the ninth with a sweet as hell straight right.
    Ah one of the last Bastian of hard of as nails fighters.
