I’ve gotta say that I like the odds of the fight going over 1:30 in the first round. I don’t think Thompson’s gameplan is going to be the big sprint again. There will be a time where the two clinch up for a minute or so. Kimbo will get the KO I figure, but not until the latter part of the first round.
Big thanks to Jimmy Shapiro for passing these along.
