    He turned boxing into WWF at the time. His ring entrances were nuts, but he kept the excitement of his ring entrances with him, into his fights. He wasn't just winning, he was KTFO everyone he fought. With all that crazy **** and bizarre style, only 1 man was able to beat him, which says a lot. Hamed was truely gifted with speed and power that many all time greatest punchers put within their top 5 lists. It was unnatural the way he punched with devastating results.

            I heard it was Eubank who saw Nas in training and actually stole some of his flashy style, not the other way around! Because Nas was like that ever since he fought as a junior, even back then he would flip over the ropes. Eubank is the one who copied Nas. But even so, I liked the pair of them, they were both highly entertaining fighters.

              I definatly hate many things about him. But loved to watch him.

              Loving to watch him is different from really being a big fan. So no, i dont love him, i think he is a giant wanker.

              But a great entertainer.

                  Love - growing up, being from the same place.

                  He was a local hero. Brilliant entertainer also - in the ring and out.

                    I liked Naz, he was an amazing entertainer and his style was really fun to watch. His fight with Kevin Kelley was a classic.

                      Eubank was jumping the ropes and posing etc on his pro debut

                      Naz used to try to copy Eubank's moves in his amateur fights
