Tony 'The Tiger' Thompson, better known as TTT, will make one final run at the heavyweight title and will return on September 26th. His team reached an agreement with Malik Scott, however, nothing has been signed yet. Normally, the Fraud should outbox Thompson at this moment, but you never know with his glass heart / jaw. Despite the news of Thompson being on PED's (which I don't believe), I am still rooting for the old man to win this fight. Let's go Tiger!
Steroids cheat VS a paid loser. At least Thompson has no reason to juice for this one. for the right amount of money, I am sure Malik will do for him what he did for Chisora and Wilder.
Is he going to stop taking his high blood pressure pills? Surely Scott has an unfair advantage if Thompson keels over from shortness of breath in the middle of the ring?
I see no scenario that has Thompson winning this fight. Horrible, horrible fight for TTT to take. Scott is not gonna stand in front of him and fight....he's gonna use his speedy jab and flashing 1-2's and be in and out the entire fight. Thompson had best buy himself a back brace, cuz he's gonna be bent over when they announce the 120-108 scores
Wow, if this is real, great news, an actual good fight between contenders! I like Tony Thompson, and no he wasn't on steroids, he was on blood pressure medication, but I think it would be more interesting for boxing if Scott won. Scott will probably be around longer than Thompson, and it would be good to see him in the mix and put to rest some of the attacks on him. Close fight, I'll give Thompson the slight edge though I'll be mildly pulling for Scott.
That's what people said about Scott Chisora, though. You may be right but I suspect the TT's punches will land too heavy on Scott and he'll eventually fold, similar to Chisora fight. I think TT will start off stronger than Chisora, but will also gas after a few rounds like against Pulev if Scott can last that long.
You forgot to add: Thompson by PED in the poll. Also can we do bets on whether or not Malik Scott's dive will earn him a nomination from the academy?
