About his comment regarding Seth Mitchell and if they compared their records and added together their last five opponents total wins and losses, that his would be better.
Ironically enough, with the addition of Dominic Guinn to his record, that puts him into a tie with Seth Mitchell.
97 wins total for Amir's last 5 opponents, 97 wins total for Seth's last 5.
Seth Mitchell's record beats him in losses, as his last 5 only have 42 losses combined, while Amir's have 49 combined.
So Amir was wrong, especially since he made that statement prior to beating Guinn. If you don't include Guinn, his last 5 equal to only 68 wins combined.Comment

here it is
Amir “Hard Core” Mansour (15-0, 11 KOs) proved he’s for real after hammering out a ten-round unanimous decision over one-time contender Dominick “Southern Disaster” Guinn (33-8-1, 22 KOs) at Dover Downs Hotel & Casino on Friday night. Guinn absorbed some hellacious shots throughout the bout, and Mansour showed the boisterous Rollins Center crowd that he can box as well as slug. Mansour came close to shutting Guinn out with scores of 100-90 (twice) and 99-91 to take the interim NABO title. In the co-feature, Edgar “The Kid” Santana (26-3, 17 KOs) scored a come-from-behind knockout over upset-minded Omri Lowther (14-4), stopping him at 1:43 of the fifth round to win the NABA light welterweight title.
Amir Mansour is now a bona-fide heavyweight contender after he landed bombs that would have stopped most fighters in every round against iron chinned Dominick Guinn. In the opening round, Mansour exchanged with Guinn on the ropes and nailed Dominick with a series of clean right hooks from his southpaw stance. Guinn took the shots well, but he fought a defensive fight after that. Guinn caught Amir with two lead rights ear the end of the round. Mansour drilled Guinn with a double right hook early in round three, and then a massive hook a minute later. On the inside, Guinn landed a left uppercut, but Mansour countered with another double hook that landed flush. Mansour continued to apply intense pressure in the fourth, as he shifted his attack to the body. Guinn was clearly in survival mode at this point.
In the fifth round, Mansour landed a right hook to the body, followed by another to the head. Guinn landed a right uppercut, but Mansour followed a fast four-punch combination with another huge right hook to the head. There were whispers of amazement at the quality of Guinn’s chin.
Mansour opened round six with another hook, followed by a lightning fast three-punch combination. In the seventh, Mansour began landing his straight left hand down the pipe.
Rounds eight and nine were all Mansour. Guinn landed a nice left hook early in the eighth, and Mansour landed a double right hook – straight left – right hook combo to open the ninth. He closed the round with two hard lefts. Mansour landed a straight left – double right hook combination to start the final round. Guinn followed with two hard lead right hands. Guinn and Mansour then traded bombs for the final minute of the bout. Mansour was elated with the win, and for proving he could box for ten hard rounds. The longest he had ever gone was four rounds, and that was back in 1998. Mansour celebrated by dancing and bouncing around the ring as if to show his fans that he still had spring left in his legs.
“I was prepared to go ten hard rounds,” said Mansour. “I saw after the fourth or fifth round, after I caught him with some real good shots that would have put a lot of other guys to sleep, that he wasn’t going anywhere, so I just started boxing him.
“I want to fight someone in the top-ten. I would love to fight Tony Thompson. He would never be able survive those shots I hit this guy with. [Eddie] Chambers is also a formidable opponent. We are both fast and a little slick,” he continued.
“I would like to thank Dover Downs for allowing me to live my dream. I will continue giving the fans what they want by continuing to fight guys who have a chance of beating me.”Comment

He needs to perfect team around him to pull this **** off, but good luck to him. Hopefully he'll fight some names like Peter, Sprott, ect. and gain enough notoriety to land a big fight.
I can see him easily facing Klitschko in a year or two if his team is able to put him in there with (and he beats) the right guys.Comment
