His most devastating lethal weapon is his left hook. **** his right hand. Every fighter now is weary of his right hand. but i tell you, Wlad's left is more lethal than his straight right. had he thrown that left to the body of Thompson more often, he would have KOed him earlier. his right hand is **** comparing to his left hook.... his left hook that dropped mercer, monte barret, wobbled petter, wobbled brewester, short left hook that dropped Sufford many times, Ray austin, etc.. **** his right hand. i say its not as lethal. :fire **** that 1-2 ****..
His left hook is viscious! He was throwing it with some ill intent also, especially jumping in with those lead hooks in the 11th round.
Better is the triple against Mercer, and a left hook against Shufford that knocked him halfway across the ring and into the turnbuckle.
The fight was interesting for a few rounds, but Thompson was just out of his league. Wlad does what he needs to do to win, and should be commended for such. I just wish he fought with a little more passion. Or perhaps "passion" is not the right word, but his fights are usually pretty lame.
