TM legacy Machamp?

Im lv 38 and I have a lv40 machamp back from the old days.
It has karate chop/cross chop.
This was my only machamp before raids and it has served me well punching snorlax n blissey
Ive been wondering is it worth it to keep this legacy move for future moves rebalance or should i TM it for better DPS?
Gamepress rate this moves as B, I have 30+ tm for both so it aint an issue

I have another lv30 C/DP and a lv20 C/CC (iv is 86%, still considering it worth to power up to 30 or wait for better iv)

Do you need better DPS vs tyra or snorlax? Will you get an extra premier ball? If yes, maybe, but in that cade I would power up to lvl 30 the c/dp one.
If no, then why will you change a mon that served you as is?

P.s. I have a 98 iv one, but lvl 30, no way to change him. Just got a 96 iv one today with c/dp from a solo raid. I also keep my c/cc that served me well. And the 2 alongside another lvl 31 c/dp and 2 vapes grant me +3 each raid. So until pushing other limits(i.e. Duo tyra) no need to mess with legacy moves.

I would say definitely go for Dynamic Punch for the charge move. KC or counter are similar though so it doesn't matter much. Counter has better DPS but KC has better EPS.

I have a similar Machamp sitting at level 20 and he's my trophy from the past. Hell no I'm gonna change this legacy move set.

From a rationso point of view it would make sense to use at least a fast TM and possible a charge TM. Question is yo what extend you value legacy moves.

If it was lv20 i would leave it
But mine is at max lv thus the qns

I TM'd a Karate Chop/Stone Edge to Karate Chop/Dynamic Punch, but I'm not sure I'd do that to one with Cross Chop. A future move rebalance might improve Cross Chop.
