In June 2021, Thomson agreed to a multi-fight contract with Matchroom Boxing. Promoter Eddie Hearn intended for Thompson to fight twice more before vying for the gold. However, Thomson stepped up to the plate as Richard Riakporhe withdrew from the purse bid to meet Opetaia. Opetaia is the -450 favorite, while Thompson is the +333 underdog, according to Bet MGM. Hearn is nonetheless sure that the Brit can defeat the Australian.
