Amir Imam is now the Mandatory for Crawford's 140lb WBC belt

Imam is solid except his defenses lapses which leave his chin wide open.

Not saying he's got a 50% chance of winning, but he certainly no worse than Lundy or Molina.

 

Don King is a dinosaur. It's long past time for him to be extinct.

 

I wouldn't mind seeing Crawford-Imam. Imam's dangerous but has a suspect chin.

 

I was thinking King was more along the lines of this...https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lich

 

Coming off a loss to Granados, and a win against an opponent who had lost five out of his six last fights. Wow.

 

Imam has been very inactive, struggled against his last opponents who was a really low caliber guy and before that he lost to Granados.
King is trying to cash Imam out, but that's unfair, Imam has talent.

 

Crawford will probably win easily.. but better then the Molina fight

 

Don King must have some serious dirt on WBC

 

That's a very dumb thing to do for a promoter. Imam needs several fights against low risk but durable opponents before stepping up. His confidence will be completely gone after taking a one sided beating at the hands of Bud.

 

If Crawford refuses, people will say he's ducking Imam.

I don't see Imam being much of a challenge. Not with defense as bad as his.

 

God bless the WBC, they are either pulling thier mandatories names out of a hat or they are on the take. What am i saying ofcourse they are on the take.

 

Imam hasn't done anything to earn a mandatory shot. A year and a half ago he was stopped by Granados and has one very low level win since then.

Imam has talent and at one time was on the rise, now he's inactive and clearly hasn't done anything at all to be in this position.

If he would have won an eliminator that would have better prepared him for Crawford and gave him being a mandatory a bit of credibility.

 

Of the three, Hatley is probably the most deserving.
Imam and Stiverne????????????
