Tony Thompson vs Wlder? Who wins

This would be a very interesting fight on a couple of counts. If Wilder wins, his legitimacy takes a bit of a jump. If Thompson wins, he derails yet another hype-job. I think those are reasons enough to watch the fight. I would feel much more confident in a younger, faster Thompson. As it is, I think Wilder can catch him with something big. And the thing with Deontay is, if he lands something big, it's a 99.99% probability it's lights out, Tony.

thompson will send this hypejob into the hood where he belongs Isn't Thompson from the hood aswell? :lol1:

Wilder by brutal ko Thompson is a good test for anyone but if Wilder detonates a punch on him I don't see him weathering the storm. Probably. However, if Tony could weather the early flurries, he'd probably stop Wilder. Its difficult to assess Wilder. He CANNOT take a punch, we know that, but it is whether a fighter can get to him before he gets to them. Tony is a durable guy, so you cannot rule out him landing something back.

Price didn't come close to stopping Thompson the first time. Ok, possibly a bit of an exaggeration, but he had him a bit hurt in the 2nd round when he trapped him in the corner and landed some good body shots. Watching that fight at the time, I always thought it was only 1 clean right away from ending.

Wilder definitely. All Wilder has to do is stay on the outside and pick his power shots and not try to engage with Thompson. I think Wilder takes this one easily and there's no need to have them fight anyway.

Price almost had Thompson out of there on both occasions, and perhaps Wilder hits a bit harder than Price...so I think with the athletic advantages such as speed, together with the power, Wilder probably stops Thompson early. However, if Thompson could keep himself in it, play possum and get some clean shots on Wilder's chin, just like he did to Price, or see if Wilder would punch himself out, could be very interesting and a good evaluation of Wilder. Would be the best test of his career in any case, and bare in mind TT has only ever lost by KO to Wlad. Price didn't come close to stopping Thompson the first time.

Besides the ko's, WIlder's technique is flat out horrible. He has NO FOOTWORK. SMOTHERS his punches when he LUNGES in with the straight right. Technically he is a mess. He's beating all these bums because he has size and power and they aren't that good. So to say Wilder just bulls through Thompson is laughable at best. I'm a Wilder supporter, but let's be real here people. yea,,,,wilder is so sloppy but he does have pretty quick hands and great power in his right. it would probably be enough to topple an old tony t but if the tiger hangs in there for the first 4 rounds it could get real interesting

So why do people think Wilder's opposition has been so soft? Why, even in his biggest step up, hasn't he fought a good puncher? To me it seems like his team knows he's vulnerable. Given that his opposition has been so poor, it's hard for me to know how good he is and how he'd do against a top 10 opponent like Thompson. David Price looked pretty damn good against fairly soft opposition too.

wilder tucks him in and has him snoring just like wlad did.

Hard to tell with Wilder because he hasn't fought anyone like Thompson. I would Thompson. But Thompson beating the contenders shows how weak the division these days.

Wilder was suppose t fight him, and fought Audley Harrison instead, so that tells you about that a bit. I'm losing my patience with Wilder, as I have bee extremely patient and understanding unlike many on here, but he has been talking big about Arreola or Stiverne for 6 months now. If he doesn't fight the winner, he is extremely suspect to me from there on out.

i think wilder gets him with the same temple shot he caught scott with over tonys sometimes lazy jab

Wilder's right hand knocks Thompson to the canvas so hard that he dreams he's home in D.C. breaking his wife's hips. He lays there for 10 minutes with a monster hard-on until they bring the smelling salts to wake him up.

Anyone ? The guy did just fight
