This doesn't matter at all. Bungu had never fought above 122 pounds prior to the Hamed fight. He was the perfect fighter for Hamed, a guy with a decent reputation who Hamed could handle easily.
This doesn't prove that Hamed would've had the slightest chance of beating Mayweather, because he wouldn't have.
This fight never would have happened, just like Hatton vs. Mayweather is never going to happen now.
Completely agree, Bungu had fought his entire career at 122 and was a perfect fit for Naz. Undefeated solid record on paper a title holder in another div.....

Heres what I put on that "Was Naseem all hype" thread about his opponents.....

Gotta disagree with the ALL TIME GREAT part.
I just can't see myself discussing fighters that have fought in the Feather div. such as Arguello, Olivares, Saldivar, Pep, Nelson, Pedroza. Oh! and what about Naz?
It just doesn't make sense.....
I'll never get tired of saying that at their best Naz's opponent's are: Manuel Medina, Tom Johnson, Kevin Kelley, Wilfredo Vasquez, McGullough, Vuyani Bungu & MAB.
One 'A' Class opponent which he lost the fight against. The rest I would say Bungu was a 'C' class fighter who was moving up in weight.
Medina was a 'B' fighter, Kelly at his best was 'B'-, along with Johnson & Vasquez & McGullough.

I just don't think his resume speaks volumes and the part that I do agree with on your post BIG H is the part that he didn't have it in him, to dust his shoulders and get back in the ring.

Lennoxs and Naz brothers voices are still echoing in my head (from the Little Price, Big Fight documentary) as they say "He will be back, and he will be better then ever. All great champs have gone through this and they come back and thats what makes them great"

Yeah!!!
