Thoughts on him hiring Jeff Fenech as his trainer ? Personally, I don't think it's going to help him any.

Well Tim's famous and Jeff's famous as a fighter not as a trainer. I don't think it will work but it will get lot's of attention which is probably the point of it.

For me, the jury is out. I liked Fenech as a fighter but don't really have any insight on him as a trainer. I like Tszyu as a fighter but not sure he can change the way he boxes and stay effective.

One can't help but wonder where Tszyu's career would be right now if they had stopped the first Fundora fight when the elbow split open his head. The bout would have ended in a no decision, but Tszyu would have held on to his title and probably not fought Murtazaliev immediately afterward.

My opinion has never changed. He's good but not elite. After Nikita's last fight I think he has a higher ceiling. I think Paro is more skilled than both. Just an old blokes opinion though.
