    Thompson is a toothless tiger, against anyone knows what they're doing. WK has improved with age and experience, still cautious, but has weapons TT cannot match.

    Most of the feeble pseudo-fighters passing themselves off as American heavyweights for the last decade or so are horribly unfit, and can get decent paydays waddling around against the pitiful punchbags there who are used to pad out a record. Yes, when WK thought he was a fighter, he got caught and floored - but those days are long gone, and he's comfortable now with the tools he does have, comes in very fit and prepared.

    It's a good example of how few heavies there are that he's even meeting TT again.

    No he admitted to getting smashed all round the ring and said he could barely touch haye.

    Maybe he was just trying to hype hayes chances v wlad

    Regardless of my personal opinion its pretty ridiculous to have him at long odds like Mormeck.

    Mormeck had nothing going for him in that fight. TT has actually held his own with Wlad over several rounds, he brought him out of his comfort zone and made him fight. When someone who is normally so defensive comes out of his shell that he is more susceptible to counters.
