Amir Mansour " Tony Thompson, Arreola, and Stiverne dont want to fight me!"

Mansour is ready to step up..

Ya can't be serious.. Do u realize how difficult it is for a short fighter to face a giant?

When a short man fights a much taller fighter, the fight is going to turn sloppy often times because the lankier guy with a much longer reach advantage is going to smother the little guy and that's exactly what happened here..

As a short HW, even a young Tyson has been in these kind of fights..

Yes I'm sure all the prospects fear hm with that recorded:)

Adamek and Thompson ducked him for good reasons. They view him as a high risk/low reward so they want nothing to do with him..

The fact that they view him as a high risk opponent says something.

Hardcore Amir would fuck Chisora up

He's not terrible man, but he's not going anywhere and there are a lot of other giants in the division who aren't basketball players. Kelvin Price was utter shit and could have landed his right hand at will anyways if he knew how to set anything up. Wlad would KO Mansour in a round if he wanted to. A realistic opponent would be say Steve Cunningham who fought on the same card tonight. He'd probably beat Mansour imo.

I think he might be able to expose some of the smaller up and comers like maybe Jennings. He could have a good scrap with Chisora.

Chisora also gets a bit underrated sometimes though too.

Amir Mansour will have a 'what if career', as in 'what sort of career would he of had if he never went to prison'...

#1 Price got caught FLUSH a number of times and Amir couldn't put him away.

#2 Amir stopped moving his head

#3 There are a glut of guys just as big as Price who are a lot more talented

#4 Mansour was fading fast which is typically the case with that style.


20 years ago he might have done something but he's prepped for a loss now.

Jennings could handle Amir fairly easily.


I'm thinking maybe Fires Oquendo is a good fight for him at this point

Last night was my first time watching Mansour. The performance was kinda meh :-\ He did okay but I was expecting a bit more after the hype he has received on here.

Style wise...he reminds me of a heavyweight Chakhkiev...in the way he throws punches and he has no plan B. He won't beat the top 7-8 heavies but the lower rung fighters vs him would be entertaining. He'd have a punchers chance at least.

I missed the fight but what about him vs Jennings on nbc sports both guys have made appearances both guys r exciting anyone have the video from last night

It's a natural fight that's probably on the horizon with both guys fighting on NBC.

After he beats jennings, he's got to be crowned as the saviour of the current american HW boxing.

I am a wilder fan so I think he could take that crown

But Jennings and hardcore r both a little older then fighting each other on NBC sports would be huge.

Maybe the winner can fight the winner of maybe a Arreola vs wilder fight or fury vs wilder then fight Stiverne for the WBC belt.

Jennings would school Amir. Boxing lesson!

That's also a plausible scenario, it's true. Jennings has not been chin checked yet though so I would like this fight too.

If Amir does win then I will show a little more interest. Until then he remains an outside dog.

Agreed. Jennings has been in a couple of dust ups and his body was pounded last out with no signs of give. He would do a number on Mansour with combinations and have him seriously short circuited with accuracy. Nothing but respect for Mansours trails & tribulations, but dude has reached his ceiling.
