Zahir Raheem (the guy that beat Morales)... was actually a really good fighter!!

[Tamis!]

The last time Eric Morales took the cake in NSB, now it Zahir Raheem. A coupla threads on page 1 about him lately...

...It's unfortunate that someone just as talented as FMJ didn't get his big break.

So are you saying that Raheem is like Ivan Calderon who, in of spite being undefeated like FMJ, the latter is just lucky because of his mouth?

[Evil Abed]

Raheem-Cruz was one of the most boring fights I've ever seen.

But yeah he had amazing talent.

what is this zahir raheem appreciation day?

Funeka was 6'1 to Raheem 5'6 (plus he had a 3 inch reach disadvantage) against a puncher. Styles make fights man and in this case you got to give him credit for facing a bigger guy.

[Kagami Taiga]

i like how ppl like to act like ali funeka is a bum. id bet any money that pac would never fight him and even if he did, id bet money, hed have a hard time beating him. a lot of these posters dnt kno what they are tlkin about, stick to boxrec.

[Calilloyd]

He could've easily gotten the decisions against Juarez and Freitas. He won both fights IMO.

I thought so too. The ref in the Juarez fight was just awful. Blatantly biased.

[SugarRayCurtain]

he lost to Freitas and Rocky Juarez, he sucks

[brick wall]

He just never got his big break.

Part of the Olympic boxing team that included Mayweather Jr and Zab Judah.

Beat Erik Morales.

Was 30 - 3.

Lost a homecooking, split decision and got kod past his prime.

It's unfortunate that someone just as talented as FMJ didn't get his big break.

check your facts fool...judah was not part of that olympic team because he was beaten and eliminated by david diaz for the slot. so is it also fair to say that david diaz an olympian, who was easily ko'd by pac, is really a good fighter? and take note diaz actually won a title...something raheem never did.

[Chups]

It's a piss take.

Also, apparently Erik Morales was lined up to face Pacquaio but first he had to get through Raheem. But lost. Why didn't the Pacman and Raheem rumble?

Because Raheem is a lightweight and Pac just got comfortable at Superfeather?
