Naz-vs-today's featherweight champs - Loma/Walters/Selby/Russell jr. Fact.

[Fenster]

It was 15 years ago (15 for funks sake) today/yesterday that Naz stretchered poor Augie Sanchez out of the ring. Naz was a delusional toby by this stage but the punching power was still savagely violent.

Does anyone think the four current belt holders would have made it past 6 rounds? Personally I reckon Loma could make the 5th? The other three are lucky to see the 4th.

What say you?

[Primo Carnera]

Naz beats Russell Jr and Selby, but loses on points to Loma and gets KO'd by Walters IMO.

[Fenster]

Walters was turned into a drunk by Donaire (who is obviously a terrific puncher himself) and "lucky" the bell arrived in time. Naz puts him to sleep.

I'll give Loma a chance of out fiddling a past his pomp delusional Naz.

The other two are defintely left kipping.

[tysonesque]

Naz knocks them all out with considerable ease.

[Lineal]

I could see Lomachenko and Russell Jr doing what Barrera did, but if Hamed caught them it'd be fun.

Walters would be taken out if he stood and traded, I think he would be stopped late or be in survival mode to lose a decision.

Selby with a little more seasoning could hear the final bell and dare I say win, but I think he hangs just a second too long before getting back on the outside and Hamed catches him to end it.

[Ron Swanson]

Naz was fun but he's nearly as overrated as Tyson.

Naz's power covered up a lot of flaws he had. I see all four of the current champs given Naz hell. The best way to look at is to ask yourself : Who was the best guy that Naz beat ? Tom Johnson ? Maybe. A slightly past it Kevin Kelley ? Maybe.

Now would the Kelley that Naz fought or the Johnson that Naz fought, beat any of today's featherweight champ's ? I don't think so.

The first A* fighter who was in prime that Naz fought was M.A.B and he got beat. Now M.A.B did not outclass Naz or even badly hurt him, but it was as a clear victory and one that would have been repeated in a rematch.

If Naz had carried on he would have more than likely ran into an up and coming Pac-Man, Juan Marquez or Eric Moralez and if he would have moved up in weight some guy called Floyd Mayweather would have been waiting.

Because Naz never fought those people (The Elites) People think higher of Naz than they ought to.

People look back and have short memories of Naz. I remember the Naz who struggled to beat Paul Ingle, who went the distance with Wayne McCullough. I think Naz's induction into the hall of fame is dubious to say the least.

[Fenster]

Nobody currently on earth could knock Wayne McCullough out. AJ, Wilder and Wlad could have a run up and they're still not putting him on the deck without a strong shove. (watch the Eric Morales fight it's a mini-classic).

Johnson, Kelley and Ingle all ended staring into the unknown.

So... if the best way to look at it is to ask yourself: Who was the best guy that Naz beat? Then who are the best guys that the current crop have beat?

[Dark Lord Al]

Loma outpoints him as Barrera did , Walters knocks him out in a pick em fight.

HOF?
Whoever said anything about HOF?

It would be ironic, however, if they had a vote on the matter and, just before they got ready to announce the results.........

The voters all got up and went home, never to be seen again.
