Is Amir Mansour the living proof that age is just a number?

    It's really unfortunate that Mansour has spent his prime years in jail. To be fair, he should be 23-0 now with 17 KO's but was robbed from a KO win vs Steve Cunningham.

    Mansour is lightning quick for his age, he is already 43 years old! Great power, good chin and the man got heart. He will destroy undefeated prospect Gerald Washington next month. The guy deserves to fight in a title eliminator bout after that. Want to see him vs Glazkov, who is already mandatory for Wlad but sucks.

    After Jennings, Mansour is the best American heavyweight at this moment :deal:deal

    Mansour's gonna spank El Gallo Negro hard. It won't be a pretty sight, far too much for more sensitive viewers.

    Mansour is a powerhouse, but he doesn't get much sympathy for ****ing up his career from me.

    It's good he can still fight at a decent level, and bring excitement, but he won't ever hold a real world title, he's too small. He should try to fight at cruiser imo.

    Mansour sparks Wilder easily.

    He looked awful vs journeyman Dawejko. Dawejko was competitive with him until he gassed. Hopefully he's gained some mass and comes in around 225-230lbs. Otherwise he'll get knocked out pretty badly. I hope he stays in the game for a long time. His Tyson-esque bombs are fun to watch.

    He is very well preserved for his age, but the "age is just a number" phrase is as flawed as some Michigan guy's definition of "floored".

    Dawejko is a fringe contender, not a journeyman at all. Great amateur career. At the start of his pro career he didn't have much support or a good team, but now he has a team behind him and performs well.

    The future unified heavyweight champion post-Klitschko era.

    I think Mansour will make a good gatekeeper once he KOs Washington.
