Round by Round: Wladimir Klitschko vs. Tony Thompson

Spoiler: Banks/Rossitto









Could be the night Steward is send into retirement. Jonathan Banks struggles badly with 39 year old Rossitto, who was blown out by Gurov and Haye. Banks almost Ko´d Rossitto in teh 12th, but he has been in horrible shape over the second half of the fight. If Wlad had the same camp, he´ll get KTFO.:stir:

114-114, 115-113, 117-114 Banks

Ironically the American had it a draw, the crowd boo´s.

Round 1

They meet in the middle of the ring....Thompson come out with a sorta jab to the body..THOMPSON is a southpaw...first right hand by Wladimir..he falls in and clinch w/ Thompson. Wladimir catching Tony's jab with his hand..jab/right by Wladimir, partially blocked by Tony.

Straight left by Thompson clean..and they clinch. Another left by Thompson not much on it though, left to the body by Wlad. Tapping jabs by Wladimir nothing big...right hand by Wladimir...

Jab/right by Wlad goes over Tony's head...Wlad not throwing much, just putting his right hand up to prevent Tony from throwing...trying to land one hard right...

ROund 1: Wlad

 

Very close and quiet first round as expected. Thompson probably took the round with two lefts, Wlad landed one right. Good news for Wlad is that he threw already three right hands

 

Wladimir Klitschko 50-3 (44 Ko's)
vs.
Tony "The Tiger" Thompson 31-1 (19 Ko's)


Round 2...

They meet in the middle of the ring...SHIT i miss it apparently WLAD landed a right..that drop TONY..but CORTEZ didn't count it....(so said HBO crew)

Jab/right hand by Wladimir right on the chin...Tony takes it..alot of hugging and clinching..left/Right down the middle by Wladimir, another right..Tony hurt a bit...they clinch along the ropes.

Right hand lead by Wladimir...a bit right hand happy not setting it up with teh jab..much..Jabs by Tony...Tony start to bounce on his toes...and Wlad taps him with jabs....

Lefts hands by Tony CUT WLADIMIR over his eyes...NOW TONY is CUT OVER his right eye...

NOT much happening..alot of lounging in and mugging by both fighters...

Round 2: Wlad

 

2nd round for Wlad, he landed good shots there but Thompson took them well.

Both are cut, Wlad's seems pretty nasty

 

Thompson tried to be aggressive in the 3rd but Wlad landed the better shots, not too much happening either way. Wlad 2-1

 

Wladimir Klitschko 50-3 (44 Ko's)
vs.
Tony "The Tiger" Thompson 31-1 (19 Ko's)


Round 3


They meet in the middle of the ring...Tony comes out with a jab to the body...Wladimir comes out bouncing around...not being the Terminator in this round. Jab,jab, right by Wladimir.

Jabs by Wladimir..Tony throwing a jab/lefts but with nothing on them...as if it was sparring session or something. Jabs to teh body by Tony...Jabs to the head by Wladimr...

Left hook to the body by Wladimir, Jab/right to the head by Wlad..clinch...Wladimir leaping in with a left jab/hook, with a straight right...

WLAD doesn't seem able to figure out how to lands punches(other than a right) against TONY...

and

TONY covers up everytime Wladimir get close...and is too slow to counter..

ROund 3: Wladimir...

 

What a sorry heavyweight champion.

And blind ass Cotez missed a clear headbutt.

Slapping right hook by Tony.....Tony jabs Wladimir around the ropes...Wlad trying to blocked it with his arms......


GOD THIS SUCKS.....TONY covers up...WLadimir doesn't wanna throw anything....tries to lower Tony's guard with his gloves...Right to the body by TOny...straight right by Wladimir down the middle...RIght to the body by Tony, another..while CLINCHING...Right/left/right to the body by Tony..right to the body by Wlad..

Round 4: Tony...

Lampley says.."good fight"...BULLSHIT...

 

Wlad 3-1, he is in control, Thompson doesn't get very much done at this moment. It is not a bad fight IMO though no action packed either. In 8th round the HAMMER will land

 

If Klitchko can't blow out a loser like Thompson, that says a lot about how good of a fighter he really is.

He's the best heavy in boxing today, but back 10-15 years ago, in the era of Tyson, Holyfield, Bowe, Mercer, Morrison, Foreman, etc, he'd be a nobody.

TFK

 

2-2,

If Wlad wasn't a "Zeta-male" he'd be a great fighter. He has a uterus where his balls should be.
