Okay. Here's just a theory, but I'm not entirely sure.

You know how in The Puppetmaster episode where Hama practiced bloodbending with the puppets? (Just a hunch if she did) This is just a theory, but what if Amon is a puppet, test dummy, or something along the lines like that? And Tarrlok is the one controlling Amon?

Things I've thought about are the times when Amon was shown.

In the episode, A Voice In The Night, when Korra was going to fight Amon on Aang's Memorial Island, Tarrlok for sure said that he & his task force will step in if anything suspicious happens. When Korra got attacked, he was nowhere to be found, but Amon was.

In the episode, And The Winner Is, after the Pro-Bending battle, Tarrlok was nowhere to be found, but Amon was there.

Perhaps Tarrlok was a good distance where he was able to bloodbend/ waterbend the puppet, Amon, to make him do all the movements he can.

Although, in Out Of The Past, I think Tarrlok did not really lose his bending. I think that Tarrlok orchestrated the whole thing. I think a waterbender is able to bend different amounts of water at the same time.

Example: If there are two puddles, I believe a waterbender is able to bend one puddle higher than the other. Meaning one puddle is in the air while the other is probably right under it.

Taken from that, I think Tarrlok bloodbended Amon's bodyguards more furosiously to the ground, while Tarrlok bloodbended/ waterbended Amon with less force. Does that make sense? Tarrlok would have to make it reasonable to where Amon could still defeat him. Tarrlok bending with his hands not moving? Yakone was able to do the same ability when in court.

Other things that caught my attention is, how did Amon know that Korra was in the basement?How did Amon know Korra was in a metal box? Why did Amon leave Tarrlok alone when Korra escaped? And honestly, Amon and Korra never really fought in a battle. How would Amon know to not underestimate Korra? The only other person that could say that is Amon's right hand man and Tarrlok.

The only thing that I cannot put my finger on is Amon taking people's bending away with this theory. I don't believe that it's energybending. It has to be more than that, like maybe, a more severe chi-blocking move.

As for Amon's voice? I believe it may be a built-in radio. And Tarrlok is voicing him. It's just a theory. Amon's eyes never blink at all. (Or so it shows in the series)

In the episode, And The Winner Is, there was no fear when Amon was walking into the airship and being followed by Korra's fireball. Perhaps because Tarrlok was at a safe distance, not feeling pressured by anything or anyone, especially a huge fireball!!!

I honestly think that Amon may be a ventriliquist dummy and Tarrlok is the master.

This is my theory thus far. I would like to know others opinions on it. I just cannot put my finger on everyone losing their bending when/ if Amon is a dummy/ puppet or somethin'.
