Naseem Hamed v Floyd Mayweather

[TitoFan]

Floyd would want to upstage Barrera and slam Prince into the turnbuckle at every corner.

Seriously though... Hamed had some technical flaws that were embarrassingly exposed against MAB.
Floyd is nothing if not fundamentally sound.
If that translates into a Hamed KO victory, as claimed by some..... then I guess someone's not being very objective, are they.

I dont think how Mab did against Hamed has anything to do with how Floyd would have managed against him. Floyds game plan would have been nothing like Mabs. I just dont see Floyd becoming a swarmer. Hamed was like a rubber-band man in there, was speedy as hell and stood atop welterweight legs holding one punch gone to disneyland power and a southpaw to boot. I just dont see Floyds shoulder adjusting to well his odd approach. Oh I'm sure Floyds right hand would be key but Hamed would not allow him to get settled at all and it would be a whole different kind of guy fighting off the back foot countering that Floyd dealt with in the past

Really?? I thought Naz was pretty close to his prime when he got humiliated by MAB.

Gotta be careful with the prince though... like Tito Trinidad, both hands are lethal.

Something up, sport?

I don't remember any scraps in the recent past.

Enlighten me?

Prime Naz dismantled fighters with ease (similar to Tyson he lost his trainer, lacked discipline, relied too much on his power and fell in love with himself) and that version at a catch weight with Floyd say 133lb would have been a great fight which he could have won.

Floyd has problems with southpaws, punchers and unorthodox fighters all which make Naz a problem for Mayweather.

Just two mate chatting about two-handed power punchers.

Who wins - prime for prime at featherweight.

Watching IamInuit thread where Naz fought Tom Johnson and forgot how quick, brutal puncher and southpaw he was.

All these qualities would give Floyd problems and they were wanting to fight one another at one stage. It would have been an excellent fight. I think Naz timing could possibly cause Floyd big problems and he may have even stopped him.

Naz at his best was stunning. I believe he would have stopped Floyd. The problem was which Naz would turn up for the fight. As much as I admired Naz, I predicted that Berrera would win. Naz was too interested in his hype and hairdo to prepare correctly for a serious fighter like Berrera. The demise of Naz was sad and denied fight fans a potential great.
