I am looking forward to another good fight on the weekend. I must say, I have really enjoyed the fights that have been coming our way in the last 12 months, more than I can remember in the last 5 to 10 years. Every few weeks there is something really exciting to look forward to. I hope Tim wins and then fights Fundora next.

If I'm wrong I will admit it. Tim never had to be a dog in his life. He never missed a meal, or slept off his bed. Tim has been the favorite in every one of his fights, even the one he lost. I think Florida is a hard out for Tim. Dim after Vegas and Murtizav is a mini tower.

Bakhram looks very strong. It will not be an easy out for Tim. I suspect he might be better than Fundora.

This fight is not going the distance, neither fighters care much for defence so someone getting clipped.

I saw the Culcay fight the other day, and I don't think Murtazaliev poses a huge risk to Tim. The intangibles are there of course. Guy could be hungry to get a big name under his belt especially in his first title defense. But stylistically, Tim will pummel this guy because he has more in the tank than Culcay and he's more experienced. Culcay was 39 and hurt Murtazaliev on several occasions. I expect Tim to score a stoppage. His defense and relentless assault should be enough to earn him the victory within the 12 rounds.

I think that you have Tim all wrong. You seem to have some animosity towards him that I don't understand. The guy is willing to fight anyone , anywhere , always gives exciting fights , even fought through a cut that he shouldn't have to give the fans a show. What's not to like about a fighter like that ? Even if he was a shiltbag , which he doesn't seem to be , he'd still be the kind of fighter who's good for the sport. Fighting a giant when you can't see is pretty doggy anyway you look at it.

Boxing has been awesome the last few years , there's still room for improvement but for the most part it's been pretty good. There are a lot of really good fighters in the the game right now , probably the most at one time than I can recall. The only real letdown divisions have been Welterweight , Jr LW /Full Lw and Middleweight. I was thinking that we'd have seen a round robin between , Tank, Shakur, Teofimo, Garcia, and Haney by now. Same between the guys at Welterweight. Middleweight just is in a talent drought.
