Naseem Hamed VS Curren Featherweight Crop?

[Disposable Arts]

Hamed is too awkward and too powerful for all of these fighers IMO.

Hameds chin would stand up to the above mentioned fighters, Hamed being off balance is what got him on the canvas most of the time.

People forget that a great Barrera outboxed Hamed, not some bum.. It was just Hameds lack of motivation/heart after the loss that prevented him from having a greater career. JML/Caba/Gamboa aren't anywhere near Hamed.

Lopez throws one of those straights he threw against Concepcion and Hamed falls down, he is bigger and stronger. He can get ktfo though.

Hamed and Gamboa are practically the same style, with Hamed being stronger and Gamboa being faster gotta go with Gamboas size advantage and andinside fight, which Hamed didnt like. If Hamed can fight him on the outside, he wins.

I keep asking myself how Chris John is undefeated. Is he past his prime, cause he looked pretty average in both Juarez fights. He got good size to maybe outbox him for a few rounds before Hamed gets one in.

Caballero is 7 inches taller than Hamed, tough to lose with that kind of advantage.

Rafa Marquez, I need to see how he fares at the featherweight division, right now I think Hamed koes him.

taking easy fights and getting a gift decision against marquez.

Don't hit hamed to the chin or he will go down.

Naz knocks them all spark out. Rafa Marquez in his prime has the best chance of beating him.

He should stop them all. I think Cab would be the hardest. That's only because of his height

Gamboa vs The Prince would've been a wild fight.

When featherweights get hit by Naseem Hamed it's a whole different story. It makes them lose concentration, and they get ready to get knocked out. In other words he knocks all of them out cold in the first few rounds, for those who say jml has a chance, you are crazy and asinine, he was was almost stopped by the bum African.

[PEBBLES!]

Lopez stands a chance? That guy has a suspect chin, if ever I saw one. Hamed will destroy Lopez in 3 rounds.


Hamed KO's all those fighters. Simple.


Imagine the height difference between Hamed and Caballero.

I'm pretty much with the consensus.

Hamed sparks every one of these dudes out. TKO or KO. Maybe wins a decision against Pelenchin.

awkward angles, sick power in both hands, too shifty.

Hamed lost to an ATG mexican fighter....there's zero shame in that. Had Hamed fought anyone else in his division not named Barrera or Morales, he woulda sparked their asses out too.

I've come around on Hamed a lot in retrospect.

Not only did it take an ATG to beat him (and he won some rounds that night), but Hamed had plenty of good wins that get overlooked. Robinson, Kelley, Johnson, Vasquez, Soto, Medina, McCullough, Ingle, Bungu (IMO his best win)...there might not a GREAT fighter in the bunch, but that's a pretty deep pool of good and he dominated most. There ain't a dude in class right now who's faced this breadth of challenges. Gamboa? Dude just beat his first top ten contender and looked eh doing it. He's looked eh against a lot less more than once already. Hamed smoked through Salido types at the same point in his career.

Caballero might be hell with his height, and a younger Marquez might be hell because he's Rafa (this slower, older version gets merked) but, until they prove better than what they MIGHT turn out to be, I'll go with an Hamed who was proven for better and worse.
