Naseem Hamed still thinks there could be a comeback!

When Ryan Rhodes was in the British title fight against Gary Woolcombe, winning a Lonsdale belt 11 years after he claimed his first belt, Naseem Hamed, his long time friend was in the crowd, and was getting the attention of fans and the Sky cameras too. Whilst doing his interview, Nas couldn't help but lapse into his old macho talk, and despite looking like a kebab shop owner, told the British public:

"I don't rule it out, why not? I'm doing my eating, after all I deserve it after 21 years training. But tonight isn't about me, it's about Ryan Rhodes coming back to get the British title again. Boxing will always be a part of my life."

It did seem to be a bit tounge in cheek....but still, it could happen! (And Audley Harrison will claim a world title belt in 2008.)

I hope he does comeback.

I felt quite sorry for him . Here is a man who used to be in the public eye then lost his title and fans after the Barrera fight . Ended up in prison and piled on the pounds. Now he stands alone in a small hall show with people paying no attention to him whatsoever. He tried to recapture some of the old charsima but it was a lame attempt from a washed up hasbeen trying to convince himself he still has it .

If he were slimmer and had not made this comeback statement so often then one may take him seriously but its obvious its just cuz he has nothing else to say infront of the camera.

he starts these rumours every 18 months or so

i hope he does come back and get sparked so he would shut up once and for all

I think that ship has sailed.

Funny the presenter said do you still have fire in the belly as big as it is hahahahahaha CLASSIC ;D

good to see Ryan Rhodes back... he really turned back the clock :cool:

Pele Reid aint changed much also ;D:-X;D

Yeah, there were a few nice lines and a lot of it was tounge in cheek I think (was there space in the cheek for the tounge with half a portion of chips and a burger in there?) but its sad to see Rhodes' thunder get stolen a little by Nas.

Totally agree on Reid too....doubt we'll see him again even at English title level.

I still don't get this "charisma" thing with Hamed. Annoying little* tosser who could do with a good kicking, yes. Charismatic, no. Charisma means personal charm. Does anybody seriously find him charming?

*Not so little anymore. I can't see him ever making super feather again.

I could see it happening at next year's Wrestlemania, he could fight The Big Show, at least they would be in the same weight class!!!

Will definitely have to cut it on the tweenkies and slurpees!

I would love to see him comeback too but he's left it to long

Oh! Crap :banghead: not this one again....


It's 2005 all over again for me. :-\

Within the next days we'll see several Naz threads about mythical matchups and What If's..... :(


Can we give the Naz comeback a rest. :deadnew:
