Is Tony “The Tiger” Thompson underrated?

It was a blood pressure pill.

 

What they found in his sample was hydrochlorothiazide. Which just happens to be, coincidently I'm sure, a masking and diuretic agent.

But, you know, nobody is ever guilty of doping. Just ask them.

 

Masking agent.

 

He was apparently tricky to fight and pretty tough. Also a cheater.
I liked the part where he was cracked in the head by Wlad and took a nap.

 

A bit underrated for sure. He's the kind of guy who doesn't seem to have any special attributes but still makes it to a pretty high level, kind of like a John Ruiz.

 

‘most competitive fight of his career’ - Lennox Lewis cough cough

‘blown up super-middleweight’ - lol

Fury nearly lost to a debutant, an impressive feat for the supposed ‘GOAT’.

 

40 year old, 250 pound black men often are prescribed hctz, like Thompson was. You forgot about that part.

 

I didn't forget about it, I just don't believe this was the case. Any time you take a drug test, they ask you if you are on prescription medication so that they can factor it into the test. Not saying you are gullible or anything. Not at all.

 

Weird how the forty year beat Price two times then. Spooky, actually.
