weak spot = wallet

Maybe Thompson wasn't able to get his "high blood pressure meds" approved for this fight?Lackeos wrote:Scott was way faster than Thompson. Turned out to be a good styles match-up for Scott, since he was too fast and big enough that his vulnerable chin wasn't in major danger. Also, Thompson seems like he's slipping.
We want to be careful to give Scott any credit, or that would mean Wilder would get a little credit. Can't have that.

I was being sarcastic. He is one people love to hate. Some even said he was afraid to fight the washed up Tony Thompson. The only way he will get credit is beating Wlad, Fury, Povotekin, Parker, or Joshua. Maybe one or two others. Hope he stays away from easy fights from now on.

well don't Forget that scott also got TKOed by chisora. I'm not saying that he took a dive against wilder but he does not seem to like dealing with pressure. He has solid boxing skills if you let him box but if you press him harder like chisora did he tends to fold.Badhusker wrote:Maybe Thompson wasn't able to get his "high blood pressure meds" approved for this fight?Lackeos wrote:Scott was way faster than Thompson.

Scott's a good fighter, he's just chinny. Remember he should probably have a win over Glazkov on his record too.
Thompson looked old as dirt and should probably retire. He managed to stay in the top 10 well into his 40s but if you think about it, the only guys he's beaten in over 4 years are Price and Solis.
Scott would be a good test for Teper. I wonder if Sauerland will consider that fight now.

I was disappointed by both, I expected both to be better, faster, everything.
Both are clearly worser as the top prospects, I think Hughie Fury even got a serious chance against Thompson.
