Tend to go with Dzinziruk in a close decision here. He was a well-schooled southpaw and the only question I would have is if he hit hard enough to keep Tsyzu off of him. At or near his prime only a middleweight Sergio Martinez was able to batter him

book is still out on tim, but id prob go with him to win a close decision, something like 115-112/114-113 with a late kd.

serhi was a tidy boxer and would pick rounds off tim, who can be slow to get going and sometimes just walk a guy down without working enough. but i dont think zinzy hit hard enough to keep him from surging and wasnt slick enough to avoid the harder shots from tim to the point where they dont add up. serhii had too many meh ones vs limited opposition for me to be really convinced in him vs other top end opposition, although tbf he was past his best by the time he got to the usa and unfortunetly most western fans prob only remember him for those performances. never near prime sergio's level but wouldve beat gonzalez and vera at his best.

I feel like Tim is a little one-dimensional. Prime Dzinziruk (say, from the Santos fight) could've picked him out from distance with his southpaw jabs and crafty combinations.

That said, Dzinziruk had his fair share of struggles with Sebastian Lujan and Lukasz Koneczny. His defense could be leaky. With Koneczny, in particular, Dzinziruk was walking back in straight lines and was getting caught often. Tim could've used those weaknesses against him

My prediction, though: Dizzy by decision.
