Ricky Hatton - Man City grounds steward

Mike Tyson - would be dead by now.

Naz a suicide bomber thats abit out of order

I know that it sounds out of order - but I saw him in a documentary (Little Prince Big Fight) which covered the build up and training for the Barerra fight, and I'm not joking, he seemed to be turning into a religious fanatic. He is also married to a cousin of a friend of mine.

It was all Allah this, Allah that, shouting religious slogans out at the camera etc - he also demanded that he recite passages of the Koran out before the fight, if you remember.

So - despite my poor way of putting it - I reckon that if naz was not a fighter, he would be one of the many radicalised British Muslims in places like Sheffield. Mayeb a suicide bomber was going too far, but some of the real bombers (from similar backgrounds and intellect), who were not successful enough to be world champion boxers, did go down that route.

I was not making any thicko assumptions just because he happens to be of yemeni extraction, rest assured.

Ok X i was a massive Naz fan and to a certain degree now you have put it like that i agree i think this could be why he did'nt fight again because he was a massive muslim believer and with all the chanting and him been signed to hbo would have to fight in usa again and probably thought after 9/11 they would'nt want him or the whole muslim thing
