    Good rounded Moroccan fighter who won bronze in the Olympics and was a standout amateur, this video sums him all up.

    So, a bronze is considered a standout amateur?

    Talk about low standards.

    He is the reigning 2015 World Amateur Champion, besting the current Olympic Gold Medalist and previous World Amateur Champion, Yeleussinov.

    WTF?
    So being in the top 4 fighters in your divison doesn't means nothing?, being the reigning world champion?, having wins over two olympic champions?, having only one loss in the wsb and one of the best records there?.
    99% of the boxers would never reach the olympics, let alone medal, let alone building a record of the quality of Rabii's, he's arguably the second best welterweight in the world and he comes second to Daniyar, a guy he already beat and is arguably in the top 3 p4p of the best amateurs in the world.

    Why do you say that? He doesn't look as if he has a weak chin,, as the video pointed out.

    Also, how many glass jawed moroccans/Arabs are there?

    Naz had a great chin and was also an arab.

    I cannot think of any iron chinned Arabs....im sorry.

    I hope he does well though. Looks to be a good edition to the pro ranks.

    I cannot think of many Arab boxers full stop. The only ones who fought at top level were mustafa hamsho and Naz. both of them had great chins, hamsho especially

    Naseem Hamed was ironed chinned. He just had balance knockdowns.
