    Great move Tszyu becomes champ and now the Crawford fight is likely if he beats murtazaliev

    One eyed Timmy won’t do anything of note. He won’t get a meaningful win from this point on. Fighting Murtazaliev for an easy belt doesn’t mean anything.

    I've only seen Murtazaliev vs Culcay and I thought he looked quite good; very well schooled with heavy hands, against Culcay who is no joke. I certainly think he can give Tszyu a tough night.

    That's a lot of consonants.

    Not much of a Tszyu fan, I take it?

    Agreed. Dude throws punches with bad intent. Might be a tougher fight than the Zoo Zoo's think.

    Nobody in the top 10 wanted the smoke with Tszyu now the Soul Taker is coming for the IBF world title.
    This should be a good fight and credit to Murtazaliev for having the balls to take on the Baba Yaga.

    The light middleweight division has sent out the Bat signal for Timmy and the usual suspects are running and taking cover.

    So Timmy was a champion for another belt, lost it and now is the mandatory for the IBF?
    :lol: Make it make sense.

    But at least it´s a good fight.

    The 154 pound division all of a sudden is stacked full of current legends and future geniuses of this magnificent pugilistic sport.
