once hamed lost his ego wouldn't allow him to come back.... his comeback fight after barera was a disaster and i dont think he could handle not being top dog. Agreed with you all regarding ingle. In the commentary during the kelley fight foreman said that you cant refine these kind of fighters otherwise you take away what makes them special.... suarez and steward did exactly thatComment

another thing as well.... i'd pick prime naz to knock pac out in convincing fashion. morales, barera and marquez would all have a great chance of outboxing naz but he always had that equaliserComment

As a man I couldn't stand him but as a fighter he was as exciting a fighter as you could get.
The first time I saw him I couldn't quite believe what I was seeing and expected him to be one of those flashy but powder puff punchers until he unleashed a leaping corkscrew uppercut which almost ripped his opponents head off.
P4P easily one of the hardest hitters ever in the sport but he was easy to nail himself with his leaning back defense and chin held high, that's what made his fights exciting.
His style, ring entrances and devastating KO's are definately missed in the sport today.Comment

Barrera had his card marked, he fought behind a high guard and had superior ring savvy, Hamed never had plan B!
Morales would I feel would have tried to KO Naz (which he might have done) but this style would have gave Naz a chance that MAB never gave him.
As you mentioned, Naz never really returned because his Ego wouldn't let him, very exciting fighter though. Arsehole as a bloke.Comment

out the 4 i think PAC is naz's best bet. BUT i think PAC still knocks him out. Whoever lands the money punch wins it.
NAz wont survive if he got KD like kelly did to him. PAC is the ultimate finisher.Comment

you could suggest naz is the ultimate finisher.... once he hit you there was rarely a way back into the fight
both guys are unorthodox but if pac came into trying to trade then theres only one winner imo, pacs going to sleep. Thats why a fight with morales would of been so exciting as wellComment

yeah. whoever gets hit 1sts BIG gets down and get kayoed sooner or later. You think Naz will land 1st i think pac will land 1st. fair enough.you could suggest naz is the ultimate finisher.... once he hit you there was rarely a way back into the fight
both guys are unorthodox but if pac came into trying to trade then theres only one winner imo, pacs going to sleep. Thats why a fight with morales would of been so exciting as well
but in addition
Morales, Barrera and Marquez outboxes naz by popular opinion while
Pac already destroyed EM and MAB ( Both were 29 @ the time of the 1st stoppage) in reality...no more not in prime arguments pls.
we'll see if pac can complete it this March againts JMM.Comment
