Naz beat some quality fighters in his time and to do that he had to adapt. Naz would break down his opponents bit by bit and if he could not stop them he would comprehensively out box them and win on points.
Not having this. "Cite age as a factor" mate, he was 27 years old. if you're saying his peak was 24, then I'm saying he never had a peak, he never fulfilled it. there is no reason why he shouldn't be at his peak at 27.
Barrera had lost to Junior Jones and Morales, but the Morales fight, a. was a classic between 2 TOP TOP fighters. and b. Many people (Me among them) thought he won. so the loss didn't take anything away from him , if anything it gave him more kudos.
The only reason he was finished at the top level was because Barrera finished him. and the only reason he only fought once more after that was because Barrera took his invincibility , his heart and his soul.
While Naz was winning , the cracks in his unorthodox style could be papered over. but once he got beat, his head was fucked. he couldn't believe that anybody could beat him , and he couldn't come back from that. This isn't meant to be a pop at Naz, but mentally he couldn't cope with losing.
This is more a pop at people like @
Master , who think that when they talk about the "best in the World" that the World starts in Cornwall and ends in Newcastle!
so disrespectful to other nationalities , and not just in Boxing either.
Tyson had a peak and was over before he hit 24. It happened to Naz which is a shame as he would have beaten Floyd as well.
No he wouldn’t.:rolleyes: :horseshit:

Floyd had problems with southpaws and Naz was a brutal puncher. If Zab hurt him imagine what Naz would have done to him.

How many did he lose to? It’s ok, I’ll wait.
And anyway, are you trying to say Naz is a southpaw in the true sense of the word. A boxer like Naz can’t really be called southpaw , orthodox or whatever, because of his unique style.
But hey, keep clutching, I think I can see another straw down there.

Corley, Zab and even Manny hurt Floyd so not clucthing at any straws. Floyd would have been weight drained and whoomp there it is.

;D;D;D Hahaha you clown. feel free to not answer the question . They're fucking paid to "hurt" him! like Ricky Hatton said "it's not a tickling contest". and anyway, they never hurt Floyd. When the fuck did Manny hurt Floyd? you are seriously losing it now kid. :cool:
Re: Pac-Naz - we now have definitve proof. Fact.
Not to mention those fights were all at 140 and 47... trolling is a new look for Master though, cut him slack;D
I’m not even sure hamed would have been able to move up to 130 in his day, there were a lot of really good fighters there back then. How does he do against Castillo, casamayor, Freitas, corralles, Nate Campbell? All a lot bigger guys than Barrera and way better than anyone he beat imo.

How does a peak Naz beat all of the above. I’m curious as to your line of thinking regarding Barrera.
Naz won the featherweight title late 1995 against Steve Robinson to eventually losing to Barrera 2001 he was dominate with the occasional lapse mainly later in those years.
Naz reflexes, speed, power, unorthodox style and timing made him unify and become the best featherweight in the division.
The peak Naz would have out boxed and out worked Barrera once he realised he could not knock him out. Naz had more variety in his game early on and as his relationship deteriorated with Ingle the less he trained and more he relied on his power. Naz became one dimensional by the time he faced MAB who exposed him for that.
Bullshit! Naz and Barrera were the same age (27) and just about peaking. Naz's unorthodox style was exposed by Barrera and once Barrera did this he went on to give Naz a boxing lesson.
I don't want to diss Naz too much because for his size he had freakish strength, and was highly popular and sought after in the Boxing
Agree that the Naz that faced Barrera was far removed from the version of Naz before Kevin Kelly fight.
Even at the Kelly fight, Naz was slipping in away that wasnt due to higher competition. Naz went into all attack mode early which suggests to me that he could not box his way out of it.
Anyone care to recall the state of Nazs training camps once he fought more in USA and how much more easily he was hit and why?
What happened to his ambition of 5 weight champ that he declared on UK TV? Was it really BS?
When Naz crossed the pond he deteriorated, dropped his trainer and retired young after his defeat.
Re: Pac-Naz - we now have definitve proof. Fact.
Naz was before my time, but if he declared that, of course it was bs. He only won world titles in one weight division.. What was he going to do, move up to welter and fight Trinidad:rolleyes: like I said, we can only speculate whether he could have even moved up at all, no matter how seriously he took his career. That’s not a knock on him per say either, he was small even for a featherweight and there were a lot of great fighters around just north of him in those days.
