I like both fighters . Usman may not want to get into a striking affair and take it to the fence or the mat . Thompson hasn't fought in a year since he had a tough scrap with Luque so his hands have healed as well as they can.
Thompson is never in a boring fight and Usman could use a more exciting fight than his last one .
Thompson would be a high risk fight for Usman but a worthy scalp if he prevails .

Usman is too strong in the wrestling department. As slick and well balanced as Wonderboy is, he won't be able to peel the much more explosive Usman off him for 5 rounds. Usman is basically Woodley 2.0 with crisper 1 2 combinations and fresher gas tank being that he's younger and WB couldn't get it done twice against Woodley.
Boring UD for Usman.

Usman doesn't have the hesitation issue that plagued Woodley.
Should be "easy" work.

Wonderboy in a five round fight is a snoozer. If you want a good fight with a wrestler you have to book them against another wrestler not a kickboxer.

Thompson is fighting Geoff Neal.

Thompson vs Neal ? Should be a good scrap , Neal has one punch KO power and a good mover himself . Dangerous fight for Thompson .

That depends if you like seeing a TKO of a high level wrestler like oh say Johnny Hendricks

Didn't they say that about Whittaker vs Thompson ... Thompson won by TKO in the first round
I think Thompson has a good chance of beating Usman by TKO .
