    Tor Hamer a skilled American heavyweight?

    I remember someone posting a while backing saying some American heavyweight called Tor Hamer had turned pro. I went on youtube today and had a look at his 2nd pro fight and he looks good to me he was throwing good combos and had good upper body movement and was going for the KO, he is a work in progress and could turn out to be a flop but i think this guy might do well, he is 25 so he is not a late starter. Anyone know much about him?

    I thought Tor Hamer was a white guy until I saw your thread! Then I thought "If Davros makes a thread about him he must be black, because Davros doesn't like white fighters" and then I watched, and sure enough...

          If you're upset that today's HWs are not American, you're a xenophobic ******.

          There are some solid young HWs out there: Haye, Boytsov, Dimitrenko, etc.

          Who cares what passports they hold?

            What that has nothing to do with it and i am British anyway, i was just saying that this guy looks to have some skills, I am a massive Haye fan.

                Davros likely didn't know what Tyson Fury looked like when he made that thread!

                He probably thought "with a name like Tyson, he's probably..."

                    Tor Hammer trains at the Gleason's gym under the guidance of Shawn Razor he has also worked with Joe Frazier. He was the No1 ranked American amateur super heavyweight and he's a two-time New York Golden Gloves winner and an Empire State Games champion, and this past summer, he avenged his sole amateur defeat to become the National Golden Gloves champion. He is currently promoted by DiBella Entertainment who hope to move him into a title fight within 3 years.
