Barrera vs. Princess Hamed

[Mars_ax]

There is no reason to demean Hamed by calling him Princess. Not valuable boxing criticism at all.

He provided a dangerous and unorthodox approach which made his fights interesting as hell. Thing about unschooled and unorthodox combined with lots of natural ability is that it will do very well when it has lots of energy going but it will always lose to the best schooled orthodoxy carefully applied by a master.

Barrera proves it.

It is indeed regretable that Hamed didn't take that wild natural ability and, without losing his unorthodox infusion of energy and angles, also learn the science.

He had a wicked talent and mistook that for an invincibility provided by Allah. It was not; at least, not in the way he believed.

I am more a fan of MAB than of Hamed but did enjoy watching Hamed fight and was disappointed to see him unable to handle a loss and to see him abandon boxing when Allah did not ensure a victory in every fight. MAB, Allah and the science of boxing all deserve more investment, humility and respect than Hamed was able to bring.

There's every reason to demean Princess Hamed, including his gay ring entrances which had fuck all to do with boxing, and basically quitting like a pussy after his first loss. An "invincibility provided by Allah"? What a fucking clown.
