I'll be interested to see who the judges are. I think it was Tim Cheatham who Jake Paul accused of dodgy cards - I've noticed that in many of the fights he does his card is the egregious one - not every fight mind you - that would draw too much attention. But Cheatham and an Australian judge would catch my attention. Deffo, the fight being at home is quite an advantage for Tim as it was massively for Horn but not so much for Kambo.
Regardless of his opponents to date (and, anyway, Gausha was a good test IMO), I'm seeing something seriously solid inside little Tim. Then we have Harrison's suspect chin, the fight occurring in Tszyu's backyard, and in my mind the chances of an upset are slim and none.
Keep this post handy on Sunday, after Harrison's win
I wasn't impressed by Gausha - just stayed on the ropes too much and went into a shell. On the other hand, Golovkin KO'd fighters of that level like Curtis Stevens so I don't think Tim (T.T?) is a G.G in the making - although both are heavy handed stalkers.Comment

Tim is not on his dad's level for sure. But Harrison has demonstrated time and again that he's not exactly reliable when the going gets tough...

I've just looked at the Gausha highlights again - Gausha is not a mover - just stood in front of Tim. If you look at Tony vs Garcia he has 2 or even 3 x better footwork that Gausha. Unless he gases badly he won't be there for Tim to hit. Is tTm a better boxer than Garcia? I know he hits a helluva lot harder but I don't know that he is actually a better boxer than Garcia. I'm prob overthinking this lol.Comment

I expect more something around the lines of Harrison getting overconfident due to his initial success, and getting caught accordingly. On the other hand, what if Tszyu catches him early? That could happen as well. I'll be surprised if Harrison wins.

Probably my case
Throwing x5 on fight I haven't really studied was definitely not my brightest moment

You know Steve, we used to have 0 x5 for years! I’m good. I think Tony wins or loses based on how he performs. I just want to utilize it where I see fit! I’m afraid there are going to be few a far fights worth risking, for me though this is one of 2. I wish you luck
. I am privy to all the info, prior to anything happening. Slow down..and Good Luck
