Did JMM duck Hammed??

[EdMon917]

I don't think so, I wouldn't see a reason why. I think JMM would've taken the fight

Marquez was later offered a fight by Hamed after the Norwood fight. Marquez was advised by Nacho to reject the offer.

It don't even matter , we all know what Marquez would have done to Hamed.

Given him another KO victory?

Back then JMM wasnt quite the fighter he is now. And Hamed was so unconventional and had single punch KO power in both hands. Would of been interesting.

1. hamed offered him a fight , he turned it down

2. barrera and jmm did fight

3. morales offered him a fight , he turned that down too


4. jmm is not a bigger star than any of the 3 was. maybe currently he is because the others are all retired and past it but jmm will never have as many fans as those other 3.

Spot on bro

I always had the impression that Hamed ducked Marquez. I think I remember Frank Warren mentioning something, he had great influence over the wbo back then and thus why Hamed kept that belt.

Back then Marquez was not the name morales and barrera were but was clearly in that league, and also a natural featherweight and a pretty concusive puncher at the weight. I made more sense for naz to set up the barrera/morales fights...they had the star power.

Emmanuel Stewart recommended Hamed not to fight him.

Hamed, MAB & Erik morales never wanted to give jmm a chance & now he's the bigger star out of the bunch.

no he isn't

Marquez didn't throw combos the way he does now but he had enough in him to make fighters not wanna fight , Hammed had power but Marquez's punches where faster and straight compared to Hammed's.the one going to sleep would've been Hammed.

Hamed isnt/wasnt that good, one of the most overrated fighters we have. If you look at his resume and his opponents win/loss average its completely crap.

and people are wondering why he didnt make the HOF this year and Kostya did. Just compare the records.

JMM wouldve spanked Hamed. He is the inspiration of Prizefighter, where taxi drivers and Club DJ's fight for some money. Hamed was the original one, fighting bums in the UK before failing at his first hard challenge.

You consistently produce some of the worst posts on NSB...I don't think anyone really cares what you think.
