Tim boestch is a classic case of a Jason Lambert-big thick-willing to fight-yet unwilling to advance

Tim hasn’t beaten top competition since he left the UFC, but he has been walking thought guys like Todd Brown. Boetsch always brings it and is one of those guys that, win or loose, people will tune it to see. Sucks about Thiago, but it will be nice to see Tim back in the octagon and hopefully he can get that match up with Thiago again. Although, I wouldn’t mind seeing him and Soszynski go at it.

Yeah i’d bet Thiago would be rescheduled on the prelims next time around. He literally threw his chances of winning the fight with Rashad away in the third round and I have a feeling a prelim slot was his punishment.

Sucks to see him hurt though, he usually destroys most people quickly

Damn it! Thiago vs Tim would have been awesome! I had Silva winning but, now I gotta go with the Barbarian!

Too bad for Tim, that was an excellent opportunity, given Thiagos top 10 status. Wonder if Silva will be in the prelims again when he gets re scheduled?

I trained at Tim’s place during this camp, he was really excited to fight Thiago that sucks he got hurt. That would have been one hell of a fight, still regardless Tim is going to come to fight no matter what and it’s going to be interesting to see if he changes his game plan at all.

Too bad. Boetsch v. Silva would’ve been a war.
