    This was the first time I saw him fight and I wasn't that impressed.

    Imam looked okay in the first round and then Angulo bullied him for the next two before the KO in the third, I'm still not impressed by him. He has a very glassy jaw and the moment he gets in there with a puncher who can actually deliver a punch....:!:

    I saw him solve a puzzle in that fight as he did in his last two fights. He's not perfect as no fighter is. He is still developing but his skills can't be denied. He is a gifted fighter and I look for great things from him.

    Lucas mattysse is too big a step up too fast for Amir. Maybe in 5 fights. I've been on the tcraw train and Amir train since day 1. Glad to see Amir has the ***** to face anyone though

    Amir imam is a very good prospect, but he has to improve still A LOT if he wants to face the real guys. He has the potential, yes, and I think he will get it, yes, but he has still to work very hard to transform his potential into fact.

    Garcia has lost his swerve.
    He's afraid to be hit.

    Iman would destroy him.

    Peterson....well, he's got hueovos of steel. And first class boxing skills.

    I can't see Iman being able to outbox him, and if Peterson gets those straight shots pumping, I can't see Iman beating him.

    If they slug it out....Iman could probably drop him and stop him.:think

    You're crazy. Dont rush this kid, let him grow and he will be a wonderful boxer. Leave him alone. He's not ready for those names, already.

    Imam has talent but he seems like an exposure waiting to happen. I'd like to see better defense, and footwork from him. I think putting him in with a Provodnikov, Matthysse, or Crawford right now would be too much too soon.

    Yeah, I hear you but it's something that needs to happen. The question of his ability to handle a world class power puncher needs to be answered. I am not concerned about his boxing because I believe he is on par with Lucas. If Lucas beats Postol then it's gonna happen so it is what it is.
