Saw an interview with Amir Kahn recently, in the buildup to his Gomez fight. Kahn admitted for this fight, his bf% was 1.5%.

1.5% Bodyfat, how the heck does someone go that low, legally, and without muscle loss? He obviously has, but damn, that's low. I mean he's obviously not going to stay that low, but 1.5% is just absurd Shocked .

I doubt he's really 1.5%, we'd be seeing his internal organs.

No he doesn't need to bulk, for his weight class he is potentially the most solid gifhter in thr world.

He did look hellishly shredded though, and considering he made it 19 /19 wins, I don't think there's issues there. He might have possible sweated off some water perhaps, or used a product like Taraxtone, to get rid of some water weight, before his weigh in.

Nope I saw the fight, and definitely no internal organs, although no doubt that body shot he had to take, rattled on or two internal Organs a bit Wink

Obviously he'll put some fat mass back between now and September, but no he doesn't need to bulk.

Actually his fat mass 3 years ago, when he first turned pro was supposedly around 16%.

This is pretty much him now. Definitely no need to bulk a lot for his weight class.
