It's close. Didn't even attempt a legit comeback after Barrera whooped him. Showed complete lack of dedication. Also did not attend Emanuel stewards tribute showing lack of character/substance outside the ring.
Boxing = entertainment and Hamed is by far one of the most entertaining, charismatic, awe inspiring boxers - no athletes - no public figures of any sort - ever, of all time. He gets overwhelming consideration by me for that. He was off the scale. He was also one of the most physically gifted athlete-fighters, ever, and one of the hardest punchers P4P, ever. If I was basing my opinion on just his record I wouldn't consider him. Can't do that though. Not with this guy.
