    The thing that always stuck out about Tillis with me was the fact that he had one of the best one-two's I have ever seen.

    Unbelievable. I would have sworn they were rights. Did you just watch that?

    Yeah. The first knockdown looked like it MIGHT have been a right but the second one was definitely a left. It’s ok they were fast punches. That’s why they called him “ Quick!!!”

    Undoubtedly the fastest heavyweight of the decade second only to Holmes, and maybe Dokes.

    Well, the first knockdown was a one-two. He set up the big right hand with a good left.

    Golota in Bowe 2, Grant, and Ruiz. He scored two knockdowns in each of those three fights.

    It's off topic, but you're Rumsfield of Rummy's Corner?

    Yeah, that's not the same guy. Nobody else sounds like that guy. Not even Rummy.

    Ur wrong. I do tons of voice imitations, including Rummy. My parents have seen a few of his videos and they think I sound just like him.
