All I hear is title shot, title shot for any win against anybody, I need to see more of Kim. He lost every part of the first round until the Knock out, and this against a fighter who goes to sleep a lot. Don't rush the guy. From what I saw, he has a lot of room for improvement.Comment

That guy Kim was fighting fought like a moron and would put his head to the side when Kim would punch. He would have gotten KO'd anyways. Teddy Atlas said that Diaz guy always had that bad-habit that was never corrected in the gym.Comment

O no doubt their's room for improvement. But Kim is learning on the job, never had amateur experience. Ameth Diaz is a solid opponent who helped him on the journey to a more reputable status in the LW division.All I hear is title shot, title shot for any win against anybody, I need to see more of Kim.

Once he gets in with an elite LW we'll see his chin tested and his power on display. I can't wait for that.Comment
