Do you want an early candidate for Upset of the Year? Look no further than DC's own Tony Thompson who silenced the Echo Arena in Liverpool, England and an entire boxing nation with a stunning second-round TKO of previously undefeated David Price today.
After a slow first round, Thompson was able to lash out and land a hard right hand right on the left ear of Price who crumpled in a heap. When Price got up, he was on wobbly legs and the referee stopped the contest at 2:17 of the second. The arena got so quiet, you could audibly hear Thompson's wife, Sydnee, yell her approval at what happened.
With the stunning victory, the 41-year-old Thompson is now 37-3, 25 KO's. Price, who was looked at a future Klitschko opponent, is now 15-1, 13 KO's!

Tony is a good fighter. I am glad to see him get this win, a lot of people in the press where building up price and totally wrote Tony off. Nice to see a good guy finish first.
Well deserved win for a guy thats paying all the dues
I would like to see, thompson and seth mitchell fight . It would be a great local heavyweight fight.
He's the best heavyweight in the world not named Klitschko
Why are there more comments about Dusty Harrison winning in Mississippi than on this? SMH...
