Naseem Hamed VS Curren Featherweight Crop?

[P B 3 2]

Naz knocks them all out.

Fight with Lopez may give him trouble though.

[P B 3 2]

Hamed won 4 rounds I think. Hardly schooled.

Also he most definitely was not motivated at that fight too, just go spend 1 hour watching Big fight, Little prince on youtube if you disagree, then come back to me. If you don't watch it and come back with **** to me, then please fool, go back to sleep.

What let him down was his hunger by then, because he came back once and couldn't be bothered with the game anymore.

I agree, It is a great documentary and worth a watch.

He had no interest on the lead upto that fight, There is even clips of him getting battered in sparring and Manny Steward saying he is not pleased with how training came was going.

Naz at that stage was more in love with the fame not the sport.
Pity.

Hamed was most of the time off balance, Gamboa would knock him down a lot, even if they're not real knockdowns, they count. On the other side he surely would get knocked down twice himself

Good to see some love for the Prince, and some knowledgable posts instead of usual 'Eurobum' crap that some idiots come out with.

All todays FW get knocked silly by him, you don't have to have a suspect chin for Naz to KO you. Plenty of fighters he put to sleep had never been stopped or put down, but once they tasted the power they decided it was time to nap.

I have no doubt in my mind he would've KO'ed most of them. Perhaps Chris John would be cagey enough to escape a UD, but that's pushing it. Prime, focused Hamed wasn't to be messed with. I couldn't stand him (and still can't), but he deserves his props for what he did back in the day.

How does a prime Hamed match up with the current crop of FW's


Juan Manuel Lopez
Celestino Caballero
Chris John
Yuriorkis Gamboa
Rafael Marquez

is it before or after the barrera fight? barrera's blueprint is very valuable in this IMO... if it is before then almost all of them have their hands full...

marquez with nacho as his trainer might have the biggest chance here...

but if it is after the barrera fight, its a different ball game altogether...

now im not saying im basing my answer on that but barrera executed the plan perfectly and all five of these names can execute it too with the exception of gamboa who can be undisciplined and just be sloppy sometimes...

we dunno if hamed could have made the necessary adjustments post-barrera though...

[Chrismart]

I think Hamed beats them all on the list, which is good testament as there are some good names on that list. I think Marquez had the best tools to test Hamed, but its if he could match Hamed well at 126.
