    Epic KO. His opponent was 18-2 and never went down in his career till today.

    Mansour was agressive as always and scored a brutal one-punch KO - Kassi was out cold for 10 minutes. KO of the year.

    I enjoy a good ko, there’s a certain, somewhat twisted thrill to watching one. Though the way he falls onto his face is horrific, not enjoyable in this instance. Really hope he’s alright.

    I like mansour, hes a fighting man. i like most american heavyweights tbh. thompson true fighting chambers mansour ruiz jr mexican or w/e, wilder is entertaining, steve cunningham is a class act. but none of them are young enough or good enough to beat klitchko, pulev or povetkin.

    Mansour should be unbeaten, he was totally screwed by Steve Smoger giving two ridiculously long counts to Cunningham when he was all but out on his feet.

    Any other ref in that fight and Cunningham would have been stopped.

    Mansour is entertaining and i would take him over any Heavyweight in the world in a 4rd fight whilst he's still fresh. Unfortunately he lacks the stamina to go too many rounds with the aggressive style he has so he may never be a Top 5 Heavyweight but he'll always fun to watch.

    Would love to see Mansour vs Wilder.

    Amir Mansour is one of the few heavyweights that I enjoy watching. He is in good condition, comes to fight and has a fine workrate for a heavyweight. Fred Kassi never gave up trying to make a fight of it while taking a tremendous amount of punishment from the relentless Mansour. I wish Mansour and Kassi good luck in the future.

    All three bouts shown on last night's NBCSN boxing telecast were good. I hope the promotional group in connection with the boxing telecast keeps up the good work.

    I was actually watching this since I didn't want to watch Abrego try to out box Sadam Ali and get his ass kicked, and it scared the **** out of me. I thought Mansour killed the dude.

    I couldn't believe how Cunningham managed to survive after those knockdowns.

    Amir Mansour showed that he had decent stamina while quite active for a heavyweight in his bout with Fred Kassi. But it does remain to be seen if he has enough stamina to fight in 12-rounds at a quick pace. Whether or not Mansour has the talent to be a top fighter, I think that the heavyweight division needs exciting fighters like him.
