Yeah man. I cannot believe that I'm staying at the same hotel as The Tiger.
So I was out front having a beer, when a 3 yanks came out sitting at the table next to me. I leaned over and asked if the they where Team Thompson and damn right! They where!
I chatted with them and about 5 minutes later Tony Thompson came. Talk about awesome!
Tony is a real intelligent and articulate guy with a fine humour. His pretty and intelligent wife was with him also BTW. She's his manager. His team was in great spirit and they where absolutely at ease and enjoying the situation.
I spoke at lenght with one of his coaches ( I cannot remember the name. I'll have to look it up). He says Tony will KO Pulev in the 8th round.
I now have pics of both Thompson and Pulev. :)
Nice one Batt, Thompson seems cool from his interviews. Think im routing for him. Gotta favour Pulev though, fresher and more talented. I'll be very impressed if he can get Thompson outta there
Yep that is him. He was also the coach of darnell Wilson if you remember him. Yeah he wants Thompson to win this fight ko in 8 and a fight with fury. What bar or restaurant you meet him in. He said there not giving Thompson a chance over there.
Yep Diez.
I don't think many give TT much of a chance that's right. That's what you get when the knowledge of TT is of his two fights with Wlad. I doubt many have seen the Price fights. Regadless. TT and his team is in good spirit. He has been there and done that. For Pulev it's the biggest fight and a lot is at stake for him.
PS: I think Pulev lives at the hotel as well as does the Sauerlands lol.

Battling nelson what's your name by dad is one of thompson coaches. I can ask him if he remembers he was the Hispanic coach. They took over Thompson corner starting with first price fight.
The guy I spoke to the most was a guy from Uruguay. Great fella. Is that your dad? If so that's cool man.
team thompson

LMAO, that's pretty witty.
That's nice! It would also be nice to have Thompson's feedback on fighters such as David Price, the Klitschko brothers and Pulev. Enjoy your time there.
Are you there for the fight, Bat? This is really an intriguing matchup I think. Thompson has reinvigorated his career by his two dominate victories over Price and seems to be exuding confidence like you stated.
Pulev on the other hand, has been out of the ring for almost a year but has been in with, and beaten, some good competition. Pulev is a natural counter puncher with decent power and overall good ring skills.
There's really a lot at stake in this fight and I expect that to translate into an exciting and competitive match...
Yeah I'm in Schwerin for the fight. I hope it will be exiting as well. I'll definetely be rooting for Thompson now. Great guy. I was actually invited to join them after the fight here. :usa2:

Good man. I know you would have represented boxing fans and the fine people of Denmark very well. Happy Days!! :boxing:
Oh well I hope I did thank you. I told them that I'd go to my room and make this thread on boxingscene lol.
Haha. She was fine man. Sipping that white wine and being cool. Asking me a lot of questions about Denmark.

Aye that's Fantastic!
On a more serious note. Has Mrs Tompson recovered from the libidinal excesses of the Thompson-Price post fight nocturnal celebrations or is she still confined to a wheelchair?
I do hope that she's O.K. One casualty was enough.
