Why did Hamed fight Barrera and not Morales?

[Fenster]

Also don't forget Marquez Naseem ducked him like the plague.

Marquez was a nobody back then. And then when he got his shot against Norwood he lost.

And Cesar Soto, Augie Sanchez, were really that much more known than Marquez ?? and you also forget Marquez gave Norwood all he could handle who was 35-0 World champion.

Have you seen that fight, Ice?

Yes i have it was a bit of an ugly affair but it was close fight Marquez was down in the second from a left hand and Norwood was down in the 9th but it was flash knockdown i can't remember how i scored it but it was very close fight.

A quality fighter that offers nothing and is in S*** fights.

Why would you fight him?

You can't be in crowd pleasing fights all the time but he still deserved his shot and while we are on the subject why didn't Naz fight Norwood either ??

HBO didn't want it, they thought it would be a shit fight. And around that time Hamed fought Soto for the WBC belt instead.
