Thompson Dominates Guinn to Win Two Regional Titles!

Well, did we collectively call this or what?

In an absolutely dominating performance, Silver Spring, MD's Tony "The Tiger" Thompson captured the WBC Continental Americas and NABO Heavyweight titles by defeating Dominick Guinn tonight at the HP Pavilion in San Jose, CA.

To a lot of you, this should not be a surprise. Many of you wrote in and said this bout would happen in this manner. The judges scores were 119-109, 118-110 and 117-111.

This performance puts Thompson squarely in the heavyweight picture now. This was a really solid performance for Thompson, who raises his record to 28-1, 17 KO's and wins his 24th consecutive bout.

So now, if you're keeping count, that's one world title for the Beltway this year (IBF Featherweight champ Eric Aiken) and now FOUR regional titles (Thompson has two and both Peterson Brothers have one: Lamont -- WBC Americas Jr. Welterweight, Anthony -- NABA Lightweight title).

A reminder: Emmanuel Nwodo goes for number five this Saturday (the USBA Cruiserweight title) in Springfield, VA!
