The one who threw the multi millions deals for light weight class fighters. When I see pictures of him with his 75 extra pounds, I can barely believe that this guy once got me totally hooked to my T.V asking for more.

That's the way it is, not the way it ends
He was exciting and an arrogant prick at the same time, but overall do not miss him.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
Hell yeah I miss him. I was at his final fight against Calvo it was the first live show I had been to and I loved it.
No one can argue that he wasn't entertaining. The power he had was devastating. Great reflexes, great chin, great speed, excellent boxing brain.
Anyone who saw the build up to the MAB fight knows he didn't train properly. Shit sparring, shit running. Complacency had definitely set in. I believe all that to be true but he got what he deserved. MAB is also one of my favourite fighters so i'm not sticking up for Naz. Both at their best I'd have made Naz favourite but a MAB win wouldn't be shocking.
I don't believe Naz ducked certain fighters but he was delaying fighting them because him and his family were so driven by money they wanted to make as much as possible as quick as possible. He faced a lot of top fighters.
How devastating must that win have been for him? very. but think about this he went in with Calvo afterwards - European champ! how many other fighters face the European champ off the back of a loss? not many.
He got millions of people talking about boxing and loads of kids in to boxing. No doubt he could be a twat of the highest order but boxing was better when the Prince was about.
I don't miss him, and his some of his fans remind me why.
I believe he recently stated he made the retirement decision due to his brittle hands.
Maybe he was contemplating retirement before the Barrera fight, who knows..
yeah miss him... he went off with his millions, brought up his family and got fat.
but I would love to see some more of this (5.10 onwards)...
