He did everything Hatton and Calzaghe have done but quicker he was alot better talent that these 2

I wouldnt let Hatton or Calzaghe in either

He should probably be in it. He was a great fighter and entertainer.

However he never made any attempt to avenge the 1 defeat on his record unlike guys like Lennox Lewis etc who cemented their legacy by beating the folk they lost to. That is my only problem with Naz's career.

Plus he is a bit of a wanker.

OK, OK, THAT SEALS IT. Based on the posts herein, the consensus is for his induction. I'm calling Ed Brophy of the Hall tomorrow and demanding it!

[No Contest]

Yes, the Hall of Lame. No, seriously he should get in, but probably down the line, I don't see it as a big injustice if he doesn't. He ended on a real sour note.

[njackets]

He should get in,there are less deserving than him allready in!

[Trainer Monkey]

I hate Hamed,can not stand him one iota
But I would find it hard to keep him out of the hall. You arent talking to a Prince detractor,your talking to a Prince absolute loather
He's earned a spot

Al, why do you so unashamedly hate on British fighters? With VD it's amusing, he does it to get a rise out of us (maybe! ). But I can't figure out why with you.

To say you wouldn't let Calzaghe into the HOF is just crazy!

Naseem Hamed is not a HOF fighter. He was an entertaining fighter, a charismatic fighter, but not a HOF fighter.

I agree with that.

He was limited as a boxer but unfortunately it is hard to deny his achievements. Believe me i have never liked Prince Naseem and was very happy when Barrera schooled him but the amount of titles he won must make him a contender for the HOF.

However other sports don't allow people to be inducted to their HOF when they have done something to bring the name of the sport into disrepute. Naseem has recently and has never conducted himself in a way that would make people think about boxing as a noble and dignified sport. For that he should not be inducted.

But boxing's Hall of Fame is full of scumbags.
