Prince naseem hamed the best light boxer ever

[nuggetdotcom]

Never heard back from this Bubbz fella.
Guess a tenner doesn't buy as much as it used to back in the day....

The man was a star, end of......

[holmcall]

He dominated the featherweight division for six years, winning 17 world championship fights against 10 world champion opponents, and he unified all the titles. That dominance against tough opposition should count heavily when evaluating his candidacy for nomination into the Hall


Unlike the late Hector “Macho: Camacho, his boxing antics made him the new poster-boy for lighter-weight boxers and his extraordinary charisma attracted large numbers of fans, but despite the flash, there was plenty of substance. He was a very talented, skilled, and had sledgehammer power (with an impressive 83.78 KO percentage) who scored spectacular highlight reel knockouts

[THE THIRD MAN]

The Prince never beat an elite fighter, the one time he enters the ring with one he was made to look a fool.

Could you imagine what Salvador Sanchez would do to him? Azumah Nelson? Wilfredo Gomez? Eder Jofre? How would the Prince handle Fighting Harada?

Hamed would never have beaten Marquez, Pacman or Morales either.

hamed was fun to watch, but barrera ended/totally humiliated him! a classic and humbling fight. someone threw a beer in his face after his long "Allah is the greatest" intro when he was literally swinging down into the ring, it was a sign of things to come that night. kevin kelly almost beat him too.

By that time Naz lost control, he was fighting with Ingle and did not have the same desire.

In an interview after the Barrera shocker, Hamed stated that he regretted taking the fight, due to his inactivity and weight gain, and that he felt drained going in. Despite the poor preparation for the fight, he admitted complacency also had set in and that he never envisaged getting beaten, and added the multimillion dollar offer from HBO was also a motivating factor for taking the fight.
