Not to mention people crowding him saying you're the next this and that will cause the big headed Naz syndrome. It's human nature to get caught up in your own hype, and I hope it doesn't happen to Amir as I've said he's got something. And I can't wait for him to fill out so they can feed that something to Joel
I think it's the Talk shat syndrome...if you talk enogh and doo enough shat people(media) will take notice and get him title shots and publicity quicker...
