    Prince Naseem's BEST FIGHTS ?

    Aside from the Barrera fight, what are some of Prince Naseem's best fights ? I'm particularly looking for fights where he was at his most arrogant. I read there was one fight in particular where he went out of his way to humiliate his opponent, can't remember which one it was though.

    Cheers

      Sounds like almost everyone of his fights. He's a dirt bag with ****in' massive ears.

        Belcastro, Robinson and Badillo.

        Belcastro still the most infamous, still his best fight.

          Belcastro who? Hamed got exposed by MAB when the going got tough.

            Barrera was the best fighter Hamed ever faced, though I would hardly classify it as Naz' best fights. But semantics aside...

            The opponent you're thinking of is Vincenzo Belcastro. Oddly enough, it was the last time in a stretch of 18 fights and 5 or so years that anyone would last the distance. Naz dropped him 2 or 3 times, taunting him throughout. He then stopped everyone else he fought until running into iron-chinned Wayne McCullough.

            Best fights, in terms of quality of opposition - though they were faded at the time, Boom Boom Johnson, Manny Medina and Kevin Kelley top the list. Steve Robinson ranks somewhere in there as well. Perhaps even McCullough, though his best days as a pro were at bantamweight and is otherwise best known for fighting well enough to fall just short whenever he faced the best.

              Barrera was the best Naz fight for me,
              sorry Naz fans but seeing that little prick schooled was awesome.

              he was a broken man after that fight

                ... and it also spawned (or perhaps rekindled) Lampley's undying love for Barrera

                  Prime Hamed puts Barrera on his head.

                    Yeah those were my two favorite as well. The Kelly fight was short, but both fighters were on the canvas many times. The Barrera is still my favorite though.
