I see in this that Thompson will try to press the fight while Wlad will try to use speed, agility, and lateral movement to box and then finally when the opportunity arises, KO his challenger. Should be another WLad victory barring any blunder whatever act of God.
I agree. Wlad's excellent lateral movement should be on full display Saturday. He will outbox the underated Thompson in the early rounds and press for a K.O. come round 5 or 6 due to the unjustified criticism of his magnificent defensive display and methodical beatdown over the clever southpaw Sultan. 241lbs. is a great weight for Wlad; Manny is keeping him away from the barbells.
I will pick the upset that Thompson goes the distance and may give Wlad fits a few times. It's pretty hard to bet against Wlad these days though.. what do you think?
Man...what the hell does Wlad eat? Only Evander Holyfield has come into the ring as perpetually in shape as that guy...ridiculous. He doesn't age.
