    32 years old.
    Fought 9 super bums

    Being a "small" stocky guy can be a very big advantage but he is a bit old and really needs to step it up.

    Being 32 isn't that bad for a HW but I don't understand why he had his first fight in 2006 and has still only 9 fights. And yeah his opponents are not even on the level of Wilder's. And he isn't even the ebst 5' 9'' HW, Tua is still fighting and I don't even know if he's better than Toney

    I love smaller heavyweights but we gotta see this guy with at least a corpse first! Let him fight the 260 pound middleweight Mcreary with the leg brace.

    He looks like a beefed up Valero. It took him 20 punches to ko that other midget tiki driver. Not dissing him, but he's ok, not impressive. Step it up on competition then we'll talk.

    Hidaka boxed his way to a wide UD over Clarence Tillman today.

    Now 10-0. Imagine the same team winning the Super Bowl 10 years in a row. :scaredas:

    He has another bout scheduled for May and has announced he is going to be fighting a lot more frequently. :good

    Watch out, The Typhoon is coming. :boxx:deal:yikes

    The Tillmann who was knocked out against SBW?
    No good sign that he could not get a KO against a fighter like Tillman.

    Tillman took a dive against SBW. He actually has a decent chin - as shown by the fact he went 12 rounds with Lucas Browne who is one of the most murderous punchers in the HW division right now.

    The guys he's kayoing are all 180lbs and 5' 7, I remember the last guy that was being hyped up because he beat Chauncy Welliver and then look what happened to him.

    Tillman was really hurt against SBW graping the ropes all the time.
    As I said no good sign that he could not KO Tillmann but maybe he was looking for some rounds wich is possible.
