Give the kid some credit, he did exactly what he was supposed to do.
I thought he looked good tonight too. Just sick of hearing how amazing this kid is. There's a lot of decent fights for him to be made before he takes over the world
To be honest the only person who says Amir is amazing is Barry McGuigan and Amir himself

If you come on these boards or any boxing chat sites all you get is Amir hate and that to me is a whole lot more boring.

He got a silver at the Olympics at 17 years old whilst being our sole boxing representative. That's why he's got so much attention. But just because people have high hopes and expectations for him doesn't mean that he deserves to get knocked like he does. In our current climate of East-West hostilities and general mutual mistrust with the Arab world Amir is a fantastic uinfying force and a great role model, not just for kids in general but for British Muslim kids in particular.

I'm a 100% fan of the kid. I know he has flaws and I too can see him getting sparked by a big puncher if they push him too soon. However where I differ from the haters is that I won't be coming on here shouting 'I F****** told you!!!!!!!!' like he was a fake all along and deserved to be exposed.

He's the greatest young talent that us Brits have in boxing, he's also a nice down to earth kid who just tries to give 100% in everything he does.

Sorry but in my humble hobbity opinion anybody who is just waiting for him to fail so they can glory in his exposure as a top class fighter is just a kunt
