Beside his lack of boxing skill, NAZ was a great (fighter) but can any tell me was there any1 at his weight that could hit harder than him.

Am sure Ruben Olivares, Sandy Saddler, Alexis Arguello and Terry McGovern, would all have something to say about this topic.......:boxing:

Naz had tremendous boxing skills

Prolly not.

Rosario,Arguello,Gomez were different weights but i dont think any of them hit harder than Hamed P4P.

Hamed is up there with Jackson,Tyson imo for one punch power.

Some good posts here, but as featherweights go I think Naseem Hamed probably had the best power out of all those I've seen.

yeah naz had good power and speed..so i vote yeah

im a big NAZ fan but when comes 2 fundamental boxn skill, this he didn't hav brotha. Big difference between great (fighter) and great (boxer) but 2 b truley great u must b able 2 do both i.e B-HOP. put it this way, tak the brain and boxing skill of FLOYD and give it 2 NAZ, now there's 1 one dangerous man.

I agree that his unorthodox style and unwillingness to change his style is what left him an easily exposed target to a good fighter, like Barrera.

But his punching power was definitely the hardest in the division during his time, and probably ever. That left hook was nasty quick.

Hamed was a great puncher and he definitely had one punch knockout power.

Naz had tremendous boxing skills

I'd say Naz had great boxing talent. His boxing skills are rather poor. If he would have really learned how to box as opposed to relying on his freakish talent he could have been so much better.

i think naz fought someone who was 0-10....

i think naz fought someone who was 0-10....
he was 0-11 and it was Naz's 3rd fight as a 18 year old.

What did you expect him to be fighting against in his third fight? Prime Willy Pep?

And yeah when i think P4P hardest punchers naz is one of the first i think of.

Sandy Saddler?

Hameds power was amazing.

He is up there in terms of #1 punching power, but at the end of the day, we KNOW that Arguello hurt fighters in higher weight divisions, while we have NO CLUE about Naz power on bigger man, so it's hard for me to consider him the hardest hitting 126er ever.

Kevin Kelley said Gregorio Vargas hit him harder than anyone at 126lb...but then Hamed got the job done in 4 rounds, so...

But as for P4P? I don't think so. You got back and look at Hamed's fights, he rarely ended a fight with one-shot, it was usually an accumulation of punhces from the odd angles that was his forte.

(Wayne McCullough also quoted that Erik Morales hit him harder at 120lb than Hamed did at 126lb)

Let us see what JuanMa Lopez does in his 126 campaign..
for now, Hamed is on top of my list..
which includes Saddler & Arguello..
