He continued by revealing that he is training for the fight with a sparring partner who has a similar style as of Amir. “I am looking for someone who fights the way he does but apart from that there is not much difference. I am going through the same routine that I would for any other 12-round bout,” he said. The 27-year-old added that he is happy to fight a boxer of Amir’s stature but he will not be overwhelmed by the occasion.
“It is not necessary that he will be performing on the same level that he was when he was young. He has achieved a lot in his career but he is also ageing. I have fought with Olympians and world champions before so this isn’t exactly new to me. So yes, I am fighting a big name, but I am not overawed by it,” he said.

That I’m not the fighter I was. Maybe he thinks he can catch me, and make a name for himself,” Amir was quoted as saying by Sky Sports. Amir and Neeraj will be fighting for the WBC pearl title.
