^^^yea he's got a better shot than most people think and it wouldnt surprise me if Timmy pulls out the win by ko or decision, Timmy has the skills and fedor is due for his 1st loss. however i think fedor takes this one as usual by 1st round tko. i actually think fedor will drop Timmy and go from there.

That shot by Fujita was gigantic and wild, and doesn't show much except that Fedor is in fact a mortal. Tim's boxing is nothing like that. But yeah, I don't picture Tim doing much more under (or on top of) Fedor than surviving, let alone hopping up. It'll be interesting to see how Fedor's Sambo and balance work against Tim in the clinch.

I don't know off the top of my head how many fights/wins Fedors has? I also can't honestly say I have that good of an idea how good of a chin Fedor has. I doubt anybody on sure dog could tell you with any certainty.

This is why I and most others put our money on Fedor. He's been just that good of a fighter. You haven't had to worry about his chin cause only one guy (semi-lucky shot) was ever able to test it.

How good is tims chin really now we're onto this subject then? what good powerful strikers has he ever taken combos off? last time i checked he was dropped by Randy Couture. No exactally a KO artist.

I can see a possible KO win for fedor here. That would be sweet.

anyone who can shake off a randleplex has a chin or heart of gold in my book. not sure which one fedor exhibited but it sure was awesome seeing fedor recover instantly.

Nog hasn't really showed an amazing chin like everyone thinks. He gets rocked in almost every fight hes in. I think the only reason he's never been knocked out is because Dan Miragliotta hasn't refed him.

Guy gets rocked big time once and people say he doesn't have a good chin.

Tim's main advantages would be striking, cage (if one is used) and activity against top competition.

Fedors would be agression, ring (if one is used), subs, & GnP.

I'm looking forward to this fight I think even more than I did Chuck v Wand.
tim said in a interviev that he prefers ring to a cage
