Barrera vs. Princess Hamed

[Jimanuel Boogustus]

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.

So emotional

Naz wa nothing but good for boxing. Hell, even the Klitschko Brothers took a leaf outta his book when it comes to ring entrances!

Andre good observation on Naz' build, I never really looked at it like that. It's amazing really the way we can think outside of the box and choose to exploit our own physical gifts in the most unique ways.

WTF does "emotion" have to do with anything? You read too much into 'my' opinions, emotion has little to do with any of them.

i loved that fight. i think what threw naz off mentally was that beer that went flying into his face when he was swinging down onto the floor from that lame swing entrance! u could tell he was pretty pissed that he was disrespected like that. it threw his focus off bad.

then it was barerras fist that went flying onto his face. classic!

Hamed vs Kelly is still my favorite fight. No one fought quite like Hamed so he was exciting to watch. I enjoy watching him fight more than Barerra.
