Prince Naseem Hamed.

He had all the talent in the world and was a considerable badass with it.

Sadly he didn't see the necessity of a decent trainer or decent training.

He could have been great.

Ike Ibeabuchi.

I agree. He has all the makings of a special fighter, but let his ego get in the way. He got too dependent on power instead of work. He never saw his full potential.

I can't understand the idea that Hamed needed to beat Barerra to become "great".

Ike. I say that because the dude was undefeated, had outbrawled David Tua and knocked out Chris Byrd, two things that hadn't been done by ANYBODY at that point. I have always felt he would have been champ.

Zab Judah is a strong runner up.

Sterling, add a poll and include Ike Ibeaubuchi, Zab Judah, etc

Hamed won a lot of titles and made millions of dollars while building an outstanding record. To me that means his career was a tremendous success.
