    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'...

    ....impressive for a 41 year old, not for a heavyweight contender

    Why are you keep mentioning age? it's about the mileage..

    U think Wilder beats Mansour?

    For the style of fighting Mansour does age is extremely relevant. I've said it time and time again, pressure fighters don't age well, age 27 is about the peak. Luckily for Mansour he has some pop, he's kept himself in top shape, and he's fought the right opponents.

    I think Deontay Wilder would obliterate Mansour. Kelvin Price landed clean with some right hands, he didn't punch much on them but he touched Amir with them and if that's someone who throws with menace like Wilder then it's goodnight sweetheart.

    If Mansour wishes to continue his ascent and wants to get a title shot (which is unlikely IMO) here's my path for him: Fres Oquendo, Dereck Chisora, and Tyson Fury. Win those 3 fights and you've got a title shot...heck win 2 of them and someone will probably lose an upset bout and he'd get a title shot by default. But the key for Mansour is to fight guys who can't take his punches, can't deliver huge punishment in return, and won't be able to keep moving away from him. Guys Mansour should avoid: Wilder, Jennings, Ruiz Jr, Arreola, Stiverne, Pulev, Haye. Dynamic fighters with power, speed, OR a rock solid chin and heavy hands.

    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.
