Naseem Hamed Reveals The "Real Reason" He Retired

[gingeralbino]

he retired cuz Barrera made him look like he shouldnt have ever been in the ring...completely embarressed his ass..And im glad he did. Nas fought dirty..threw vicious elbows..tackled some..flipped some over..i remember 1 guy hitting the table with his head from a takedown and the ref made him get up and fight..no 5 min recoup time or anything.FUUUCK NAS!

rewatch the fight. Made him look like he never belonged in the ring? Barrera won by 3 rounds ffs, and fought the perfect fight to do it.

And lol at calling Naz a dirty fighter. Barrera slammed him face first into the ring post

Exactly hommie by boxing scene standards tho 4-2 round victory is a ****ing schooling tho. Barrera beat a clearly not at his best/declining Naz by 3-4 rounds props for that, but in his prime i believe Naz takes him and Pac, not sure about Morales tho.

Naz was great for Boxing i must admit.

cosign. if youll ask me, i think boxing needs some like hamed today. he can make non-boxing fans watch boxing

[JM1]

nope. first i've heard about it. Enlighten me (not being a ****, im actually curious).

espinosa wanted to fight hamed. but espinosa is a low reward, high risk opponent(ala soto) who held the wbc title for some time. i believe espinosa wanted that fight cause hes desperate for a big payday

[Pullcounter]

hamed quit because he knew he couldn't beat mab

[MegatronCEN*CAL]

Because he is fat.

[RodBarker]

Ummm. Hamed was known strictly for his insane power. The man was the hardest P4P puncher of his time, and it would be ridiculous for a murderous puncher to have to fight with low power.

Yeah fighting nobodys , hands went same timeframe opposition went up , funny that .

Naseems a liar, Barrera took whatever manhood he had away.


I think his power was kinda overrated, since all he was doing was looking for the KO. I disliked his style, it was just awkward, with his hands down, and rarely using his left, only for KO'ing. He rarely threw any form of combinations. The way he moved his body too, looked like a gay skinny guy. It was effective for him though.


It was great when Barrera took him out. I still remmeber that prolonged stage entrance, and him smiling every end of the round like he got the best of Barrera, even though Barrera convincingly won the round. I remember he slammed Naseems head into the post, giving up a point. Barrera was a G like that.

All that flash he entered in the ring and Barrera made him look like a douchebag. he realized who he was and retired.

Or it could be that fact that Hamed dropped Ingle, was going through a lot of problems before the fight.

Hamed's confidence is for show, he won't let the other fighter know that he's beaten.

Barrera's a dirty **** anyway.

Hamed isn't ? he probably should of been chucked out for body slamming Soto.
