    I miss naz, he was good for the sport.
    I think he is an example of whats wrong with boxing and why every boxer nowadays feels hes entitled to millions of dollars.

      Each to thier own i guess?

      Hamed earned his millions to be fair. Adidas paid him a **** load for his sponsorship and he put bums on seats and people would tune in to watch him fight wither you liked him or not. He put on a show.

      He was box office gold, who you could make a fortune off and a lot of people did.

      Can't blame 'The Prince' for the greedy boxers of today.

        Promoters didn't lose money on Hamed. He was a top draw. Boxers who can bring in money like him deserve the millions. If you like underpaid talent and rich promoters, enjoy the UFC.

          The thing is I don't like the fact that UFC fighters are underpaid but at the same time I don't like *******s like Winky and Corey Spinks clammering for millions when they really don't deserve it.

          As for hamed lets talk about the arrogence that caused an innocent man to lose his ability to walk because he wanted to drive 150 MPH on a freeway. Naseem was so arrogent and thoughtless that he walked away from a man that begged for his help as he was bleeeding and dying in the middle of the roadway.

          Please defend this disgusting **** and tell me how this is GOOD for boxing?

                Promoters aren't going to pay fighters money that won't allow them to make a profit. At least not if they want to stay in business. HBO overpays guys like Winky sometimes, but that is their privilege. There are crappy baseball players who are ridiculously overpaid by comparison. None of them get punched for a living.

                As for Hamed's vehicular mishap, I'm not going to defend it or discuss it because it has nothing to do with how much money he got paid to fight.

                  I'm not saying that Hamed couldn't draw a crowd I'm just saying that hes not good for boxing in that his self centered personality tarnishes the image of boxing especially when the youner crowd of society are gravitating to the UFC which for the most part markets their fighters as Blue Collar lunch pale kind of guys and not as british aristoc**** that run over people and could give a **** what happens to them.

                    That haircut was right before the Barerra fight, i t was in a cool little Movie the other day on ESPN Classic all about the weeks building up to the fight, he was way ****y but that made it even sweeter knowing that he is gonna get his ass handed to him in the end.

                      Naz made boxing entertaining with his flashy style and his K.Os. He's just a pure showman. I don't care about who his next opponent, I just wanna see what's he going to do next! If the ATG list is based solely in pure excitement and entertainment. I think NAZ will be at the top.
