    I saw Singh fight years ago. He had little skill, and marked up easy. Basically he's a novelty.

    I am not sure if Singh is a Sikh, as Sikh men men do not cut their hair.

    Already a fan without knowing **** other than he comes from a place not known for Boxers which makes him an underdog..and everyone loves an underdog.

    Amir is a punjabi rajput which is about as subcontinental as you can get... I think its hilarious how someone can mix him up with an arab.... absolutely oppositte ends of the spectrum.

    Exactly. Anybody in this thread who puts forth ANY opinion (whether positive or negative) of someone's ability without having seen them in action comes off as a complete ****** and should immediately be put on the Zero-credibility list.

    What can you tell us about Singh's style? Is a boxer or slugger? Does he stand straight up? Did he have a leaky defense?

    There are three films available of Singh, but all are preliminary fights dating from 2003. One is a first round kayo, the others are a four round and a six round decision. Singh's opponents in these films are nobodies.

    And on what exactly do you base this expert analysis? Surely you must have some deeper insight than those of us who only have Boxrec to go on.

    This guy is bordering on Chris Arreola physique. May be because of his race though, you don't see very many Indians with defined bodies.

    He needs to go to Bombai and seek out Great Tiger from Punchout and see if he can learn to do the "Tiger Punch". I also know that Great Tiger was allowed to fight in a turbin, not sure if that would help Singh, but I think a precendent was set back in 1987.

    a lot of that is crappy nutrition and poor exposure to sports, honestly. a lot of indians don't encourage their kids to do any sports whatsoever as kids and instead they sit around practicing calculus and eating rotis.
