Good luck to Timur... I hope he puts in a good account of himself whatever the result. He's tough as nails, not the most technical but a warrior who will not quit. Saw him in Hong Kong against Rex Tso. His corner pulled him out late but he nearly had Tso outta there early on. Every time he looked like he was gone he pulled something out and got back into the fight. Sure, no world beater but very humble, has won a stash of alphabet titles and has travelled all over. He said one of his dreams was to fight in America, so lets see how he does. I haven't seen Yanez... What kinda fighter is he?
