    I'm so sad to see retire, but I'm also happy for him. Timmeh's a man's man.

    I saw him fight Kendall Holt live and have to say he was very good but not great. No hate to him just my personal evaluation. A bit sloppy and lacked the sharpness that you see at elite levels. His conditioning though was out of this world.

    Never liked the guy. Thought he got too many gifts.

    He got three gift decisions in a row. First, Manny beat him 9-3. Then Provodnikov beat him by a point. And last, he should have drawn with Marquez.

    If he lost to Ruslan by a point and got the nod, it wasn't really a gift. If he drew with Marquez and got the nod, it wasn't really a gift.

    I had him edging Ruslan and beating Marquez quite clearly.

    Excellent pro who melded a good set of boxing skills to considerable athleticism and backed it up with toughness and Saad-like levels of fighting heart and will. Seemed to be quite underestimated for much of his career. Appears to be a high-quality individual outside of the ring.

    I'd hoped to see him finish on a W, but it really doesn't matter, his defeats came to a great fighter in competitive fights. He was a step behind a Manny or a Floyd, but only a step.


    This is certainly a justifiable thread. If all fighters around today had his attitude, we'd have a sport.
