agreed..this will let us know where tim's chin is at

Chin not bad, he just has leaky defense and mediocre boxing skills. This is a good payday for him but not being a top guy he has been exposed for. I do think he matches well with Ortiz though

I`m saying no body is going to put the Money up. Shakur is a Champ with accolades, he isn't taking a pay cut ( we say that with the Devin talks regardless if it was casual or note, Shakur felt it was a non starter).

He wouldn’t be taking a pay cut. Both would make a good amount but what’s worth it to Tank is highly subjective

i wouldn't say he's not a top guy because he does standout a lot even in a competitive division like 154..hes going to have to fall a lot more for me not to be considered a top 154 fighter....like losing to joey spencer lol

What is your definition of top? Because to me he is a middle of the road guy. If we counting Bud and Charlo then Tszyu is no higher than 6. If you say 6 is a top guy I could go with that but that is generous because what we don’t know is Xander, Lubin, and Conwell could be better and then he is gridlocked with guys like Dream. He is a top 10 guy but top 5, nah

you can put him in the 5-6 range but i would not put xander, lubin, or conwell above him because they dont have his wins..lubin maybe you can argue but not the other 2
