    Amir have some really great boxing skills, but does not have the IQ or the defense too stay at elite level, if Haroon learns from his brother's mistake, i think he can go pretty far and maybe become a world champion. He also said, that he'd take a slower route, first becoming commonwealth, european and then fight for a world title, which i like about him. Will Virgil hunter remain his coach?

    Oliver Harrison is Haroon's coach. Virgil only stepped in on Haroon's debut because Oliver was in Argentina with Martin Murray. But we'll see how he gets on.

    It will be tough for Haroon living in Amir's shadow, but his name will get him better opportunity's than most at his weight.

    Not as talented as is brother. Remember his brother won Olympic silver aged 17 and was blowing some guys away with his speed.

    Was tempted to go to his fight tommorow, but his opponent is still to be announced.
    He doesn't punch hard and isn't as good as the likes of his brother, or Adnan Amar , Adil Anwar. However he is exciting to watch and will be a good addition to the domestic scene. I'll certainly be following his career with interest :good

    Why the hate? At least he's doing something positive with his life and night fighting people in the streets of birmingham
