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 . |

| 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
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.
