Most of Amir's defensive work is based on being out of range, he was almost running at points on saturday night, he has zero moves on the inside and looks almost desperate and panicky at times when charged.

He can be a force in the division, but needs a big change in approach. While he's a much better prospect than Audley ever was, I see similarities in the way they try to avoid being punched at all cost, rather than block and do work on the inside himself. A new trainer is required IMO, possibly Roger Mayweather and they should break the bank to ensure his services as well as tough (reality checking) sparring stateside.
