TysonBruno - Some good pics there of Nas in his prime . He had some good moments and it brings back memorys of him at his best

Tom Johnson was Nas' big test and he didnt mess about in that 1 . I do think he should have taken a count at the end of teh third cuz he touched down . I liked Johnson and wanted him to skool nas but it was the changing of an era .

Billy Hardy wasnt confident going in and was willing to fall from the 1st big shot . In hindsight a pointless fight but tha the time Billy was a respected European champ who beat Robinson .

Vasquez I feel had his momentum broken when the ropes went . He was begining to find his distance and catch Nas with eye catching shots . Then when the break came it helped Nas alot and he came out and stopped Vasquez . He looked a little gunshy after teh Kelley fight but he got the job done in good style in the end .






CC back Game i know he made a war out of the Kelley fight but after Naz had fought him it took Morales 7 to do him and 6 year later after Naz fought him it took Barrera 4 im not taking anything away from Barrera he did a great jod but at the same time i can't help thinking Naz helped with his own downfall he had a poor training camp their was the glove thing that delayed the fight by nearly an hour and he said they still did'nt feel right plus apart from that he did'nt have no gameplan he just wanted the ko he did'nt have no plan B Manny steward was'nt any good for him he neede Ingle
To be fair not even Ingle would have been able to help . If you listen to Brendans advice between rounds , it consists of " breath deep " Manny Stewart was a better trainer but Nas wasnt listening at that stage . His poor training camp was his own fault cuz he was in a luxury mansion . Not ideal seeting s. Barrera was in the snowy big bear mountains and we saw him studying tape of the Kelley - Nas fight . Barrera obvioulsy thought just keep countering but dont get carried away like Kelley did and I cant lose . It worked too .

As for the gloves issue . I do belive Nas was milking it a little . He was taking his time abit too much whilst Barrera waited but whilst he thought he was having the upperhand , it actually made Barrera and his camp think Nas was scared to come out and fight him and in the 1st round it was all Barrera . Lennox said to him in teh changing room after , its all about how you come back . Everyone gets beat but its how you comeback . Lewis should know ofcourse . He always came back better . Nas though lacked that quality . The booing from the crowd against Calvo couldnt have helped his spirit . I felt a little sorry for Nas for the 1st time ever in that fight cuz he gave teh crowd so many good moments and now they turned on him . I cant imagine the Mexicans booing Chavez when he didnt have it anymore.
