    Its not even about his chin. Imam is just a complete idiot when it comes to boxing.
    He has had success because of his flashy style and athleticism.
    But in reality he has no idea what hes doing in there.

    He reminds me of Antoine Douglas in that respect.

    Imam is a frontrunner fighter. He has skills and can bang but I am not sure he can hang in there in the tough later rounds. This is the wrong style matchup for him to win a world title.

    Yes!
    But i think Douglas might actually be the better fighter. At least when it comes to resumes.

    Bending down at the waist and coming straight back up is not a skill. Its what gets you chin checked as was the case with him.
    All he does is sit in his "philly shell" and rely on speed and reflexes. No head movement, little to no feints, no lead hand control. Only throws a pitty pat jab that he rarely uses to probe or set anything up. Or he then throws only power punches.

    I favored Imam at first but hadn't seen a lot of either guy. Having watched a little more, I think Ramirez can stop him.

    I’m curious about what the payday was for both fighters in this bout. My son and I have a debate. Can’t find anywhere. Could someone provide info or an estimate? Thanks in advance.

    They're both literally the same level and have the same deficiencies.
    Imam showed he can take a beating better because there were a
    few times I thought he was gonna get stopped but he gutted it out.

    Cant find it anywhere. The fight reached a deal before it went to a purse bid so were not sure of the dollar amount.

    Always good to see trash posters get booted.
