Myself I dont see the 'flare' to this match up. It's too ordinary and with no significance. Thomas was a good fighter, but he was his own worst enemy and never did reach the potential he could have had.

But even at his best, I dont see how he'd be any more a threat to Rocky than anyone else the Rock faced. KO inside of 8 rounds, maybe 6.

Pinklon Thomas would smash the overrated, undersized Italian brawler round the ring, stop him in about 7-8 rounds, and reveal him as the biggest pretender in heavyweight boxing.
Dont you agree Brockton?
