In his recent MMA hour interview, stated that he'd still fight Perry even though he's coming off of a loss. Acknowledges that he's not at a point in his career where he can be picky. I wish more guys in the WW division had this same mentality.

Also feels that he can knock EVERYONE out at WW, including Wonder Boy. I'm not sure that I agree with his sentiment, but I really like his confidence.
 
Till is gonna be a hard man to stop. He could do well in MW, he's a big lad.
 
Good attitude. I'm excited to see his career progress, I get the same excitement when I watch him fight as I did watching early Jon Jones performances.
 
wait, so you're giving him credit for wanting to fight some bum that just lost?

He talks a big game but the truth is he went to a draw against a guy that was dominated in his next 2 fights and his only legit win was against a wayy past his prime, shot fighter in Cowboy.

it's easy to talk a big game when you haven't fought anyone yet

He really believes in his striking. Him vs. a good wrestler like Colby or Usman is the fight to make. I initially wanted to see him vs. Perry, but I'm slowly accepting the fact that Platinum will always lose to guys who can be technical. That'd be a bad fight for him.
 
He sure beat Cowboy like a red-headed stepchild.

He talks a big game, will be fun to see what he can do against the tip-top guys.

I'm a huge huge fan of Covington but man i'm gonna hate it when he fights Till because that's our homegrown man. It will suck watching the outcome of that one.

Till, Covington and Usman will spearhead that division down the road for sure.

I actually agree with you. I too feel that he's untested, and the win over a shopworn disinterested Cowboy hasn't convinced me that he's ready for the TS.

But in this day and age, it's rare that an up and comer with some momentum and buzz behind him would fight anyone coming off a loss. He could be like Colby, Usman, Tyron, Wonderboy etc.

Come to think of it, is WW the worst division for fighters trying to cherrypick?

They are the future. And there's still plenty of big names at WW who will be around to test them.
