Yeah, I had Thomson winning the third Gil fight, however that doesn't solidify him as a legit LW contender in my books, for a few reasons. To me, Thomson is getting up there in age and rarely has a full camp without getting injured going into a fight, not to mention he's known for overtraining and I think training with AKA he's plateaued as a fighter. I think he's a very good, entertaining fighter, but I don't believe he's top tier and don't have confidence in him against somebody like Nate.
