Manny Steward said Naseem Hamed was the best FW of AT

Steward also said Andy Lee was going to dethrone Pavlik.

with his chin and power naz had something special, plus he was a natural entertainer and not afraid to take risks. he could have no doubt gone on to become a modern ATG, but he never loved boxing like other fighters do (hopkins, benn, etc), he didn't love the training or dieting. guy could have been something special.

ATG ?? I doubt it.

What would of happened, when he met Pacquiao,Morales,Marquez etc ?

Steward was (one of) his trainers at the time. He also said Hamed was not looking good in sparring prior to the fight, you can see the worried look on his face. Amusing documentary though, I've seen it before. Hamed really let his fame and punching power go to his head by the end.

Manny Steward said Naseem Hamed was the best FW of AT, and then said well not yet, because he has to prove it, but he will be.

I saw a replay of Naseem doc " little prince big fight" earlier on ESPN Classic. Ive seen it before, but i never realised Steward said he was the best of "FW ALL TIME" or will be

I know hindsight is a wonderful thing and i respect Steward as a trainer, but daamn!! that was one bold prediction, and possibly even ******.

It's funny Naz is either wildly overrated or underrated.... there's no in between.

I read through a book recently that was published after Hamed's last fight. According to that, Hamed's team did not show him the video of the Barrera-Jesus Salud fight, even though Manny kept asking them to. Hamed's people thought it was a better idea to show him videos of the fights where Barrera didn't look good, in order to build up Hamed's confidence.

That's crazy IMO.
