True! He was dominating the opening rounds against Pulev, but then logically gassed out. He fought Pulev way too early after being knocked down by Price a month before. I give him a good chance to beat Pulev in a rematch (but not if they fight in April :deal )
Pulev beats TT every time they fight. Pulev had prepared for Williams Tank Sherman, a short ortodox fighter and they gave him Thompson who is the most awkward southpole and big too. Had Pulev prepared for a big southpole he would have KO Thompson. Tony was coming of two back to back wins over Price so he must have been in good shape. No excuses.
Pulev was watching TT jabbing his ears off like a schoolboy for three rounds and had no answer when TT was walking him down later when he got his second wind either.. Thompson was done in the last four rounds, he probably threw five punches combined due to his poor conditioning. not sure if Pulev has ever beaten an professionally trained opponent yet TT>>Pulev
Arreola would beat him just from the pressure, Jennings would UD him and Wilder would stop him Hes good but Solis' stamina is just terrible
I wish he was 32 not 42. He destroys all other american HW's except arreola but he'd probably beat him too.
I feel the same way, which is quiet disturbing to me, agreeing with you. Though I'll say this. I doubt Wilder get the KO1. I think Price with all of his chin issues can still punch extremely hard, and Thompson survived those first dangerous rds. Arreola should be able to outwork him, but has underachieved every time he has been tested, besides the china chinned football player he smashed. And Jennings seems to have enough cardio to out point him. So if Thompson isn't the best of the Americans heads up, he still owns a respectable career. Which I think should be mentioned considering, he's old as dirt, slow as molasses, punches with no real power, and is a winning underdog
I hope thompson doesnt fight wilder cause hes getting knocked out right now! If it was prime thompson thats a whole different story...
It's either him or Arreola Arreola would be the best murican no doubt if he wasn't such a lazy tub or lard.
