A few additional thoughts:
- Amir was exhausted going into that fight. He looked timid and sluggish from the bell and any explosiveness from his athleticism was gone. With that in mind he was basically a sitting duck for an experienced and deadly, albeit old, Cro Cop.
- Amir had taken some big headshots in his two fights. His face was bruised up quite a bit. It's not gonna take much for your bell to get rung when you have already taken some damage. He might have even had a mild concussion BEFORE the Cro Cop fight.
- For as athletic as he is, Amir's footwork is dogshit. He should be moving a lot more than he is. I blame coaching.
- Amir really needs to switch camps. Yes he is still pretty green judging from the number of fights hes had, but he's been at AKA Thailand for almost 3 years. Thats a long time for his stand up game to still be this bad. It's a shame he can't come to the US and get some proper boxing instruction. I would LOVE for him to connect with Bisping's coach, Jason Parillo. That would be a match made in heaven. Best MMA striking coach in the game, especially coming from a wrestling background."Formerly known as AliDaeiClone"

However, he also carries a Kurdistan flag if I'm not mistaken.
Lol @ Dariush Assyrian flag though...
EDIT: oh shit I hope I didn't post about Amirkhani....not only does he carry Kurd flag but also a supporter of Kurdish separatist terrorists.
Despite growing up in Finland, Amirkhani remains proud of his Kurdish heritage.[1] At a June 2015 weigh-in to his fight, he held a Kurdistan flag aloft as he stood on the scales.[1][7] He also frequently posts in support for the Peshmerga on his social media accounts.[1]Last edited by Farhad-7; 02-20-2017, 12:36 AM.

The question is only is Amir ready for UFC competition? If his team thinks he's ready its not going to be hard to get him a UFC fight. Visa issues not withstanding.
I know visa is not an issue but these UFC fight nights in Asia usually have promising stars making their debut against average opposition. Amir and Paradigm should go for it before it's too late. Even Joe Rogan has talked about Amir in his podcast a few times.

Dont wish any harm on him because this was a pretty crazy KO but damn that Assyrian flag he carries is disgusting.
