    Don't remember Amirs weight for Olympic trials.

    But he's taller than spence, he's damn near 5"11.

    That's what I keep trying to tell people, he's got the skill of a smaller fighter because he was tiny for most of his amateur career, but he's not small anymore, and at 140 as deep as that division is, there's not many guys who can mess around with him.

          Meh, he was getting blasted and dropped by Maldonado Jr before the premature stoppage. He has a long way to go.

            Nope. He's lucky he has the frame of an ethopian because if he was able to fight at 154lbs Antoine Douglas taxes that ass within six rounds.

            Antoine Douglas >> Amir Imam. FACT.

              You comparing someone who fights at 140 to someone who fights at 154, you just start following boxing yesterday?

                I'm comparing their skills. I obviously know they're light years apart in weight.

                Don't be an idiot. The weight had absolutely nothing to do with why I think Douglas would beat Imam. I thought I made that clear............................................. ..

                  He desperately needs to work on his defense.

                    Imam is 5"10 and has a longer reach than Mayweather, tough fight for anyone. Solid shoulder roll too...unlike AB. He fights a top 15 guy in Angulo this weekend so that should be fun.

                      Yep, agree. Imam is gonna be a problem for anyone who gets in the ring with him. His jab and right hand are special.
