    Prime Zab Judah thought that as well. He found out differently.

    Where have you been? Kostya was top 3 pound for pound when prime Hatton got him.

    Tim is a chip off the ole block. He's going to make many other fighters do the chicken dance.

    KT is a great fighter what’s not to like, iron will, strong dedication and discipline, fabulous technique and fearlessly confident. Not looking for the points win, but will take it. I respect the greats for their differences as far as style but there’s no denying he is one and people found reasons not to fight him. Tim haven’t watched, so I guess I need to check out some YouTube.

    Kostya hit about as hard as any man ever has at 140 lbs. Should be in the discussion for ATG status.

    He's getting hyped to the moon for no reason. Getting GGG vibes and GGG was much better.

    He's a good fighter but pump the breaks.

    Nobody at 154 lbs (at least the top guys who are there right now) want anything to do with Tim. They are ducking him.

    Tim's style is very similar to his father's.

    You better watch what you say about Tim. He won't forget it. He will put you on his hit list and after he knocks out Charlo, Crawford, Canelo he will jump out of the ring after he throws his mouth guard at you and smesh the laving daylights out of ya.

    Remember, he was a former interior decorator. and killed 16 chechnyan's rebels single handedly.



    His house looked like **** but.

    There is always someone out there has the other guys number. That was the case with Phillips and Tszyu. Add in it looked like Phillips weighed 10 or 12 pounds than Tszyu come fight time. I think KT lost 2 fights his entire career, not to shabby.

    He never even tried to avenge himself against Phillips, nor Hatton. That disqualifies him. His comp wasn't good enough and he never pursued fights with Mosley/DLH.

    He was a dominant fighter for a long time at his weight, but he sort of stayed in that 140lb comfort zone.

    PBF would've handled him.
