Originally posted by BigStereotype View PostYeah, but their resumes also corroborate the evidence. Barrera, Marquez and Pacquiao are all way ahead of Hamed. Hamed is the heavier handed fighter, but that's it.
Hamed Vs Kelley was FOTY for a reason. Mallinaggi was inspired by that fight to become a boxer. JMM Vs Pac was a good fight but it wouldnt have lasted 12 rounds if they had Hameds power.

Princess Naseem is a fraud who lost to the only opponent of his who had a pulse. Quit boxing so as not to get exposed again.

Originally posted by BigStereotype View PostIt was certainly a thriller, but I think that those guys have way better chins than Kelly. Marquez can be dropped but you would almost have to kill him to keep him down. He's shown that over and over. I can say with confidence that he would survive a barrage from Hamed. Pacquiao might get stopped at featherweight, but only because he'd run face first into some bombs. He'd take a lot more punishment than Kelly did, his chin is like a rock.

So much love for this Fraud Hamed. If Hamed fought the Filipino Luisito Espinosa before Barrera, he would have been exposed.
