Barrera fans stop acting like he battered Hamed when he outboxed him

[extracurRICular]

Im so tired of people describing the fight as a drubbing, a beating, you can tell they haven't watched the fight or haven't in a while.


Barrera outboxed him, and didn't trade much....used his jab and picked his spots....took advantage of Hamed's growing dependence on one punch power and no combos.


A very good display but not a beating

sounds legit.............

[Rapid Counter]

Call it what you want. All I know is that was beautiful to watch.

And this about sums it all up ^^^^^^

sounds legit.............

in the first pic, is that his left ear or something else? WTF?

on topic, this is one of my favorites fights of all time, love barrera for this.

Yeah, because the rankings always reflect the stiffest competition... Come on, man. That doesn't mean sh##

Are you English?

They're just about the most accurate reflection of the most prominent and best operators in each division of that specific period. These aren't my own, biased rankings that I've made up to suit my own agenda; they're the oldest and most established ratings system in boxing.

Bottom line, Barrera kicked Hamed's azz and humbled him.

To Naseem's credit he took the loss like a man

I'm serious: are you English? I get what you're saying but I'm interested to see if you're blinded by bias

I was a Naseem Hamed fan. He was one of the boxers who got me interested in the sport. I didn't know much about Marco Antonio Barrera at the time. It's fair to say that Naz got owned that night.

[Ray*]

He didn't really take a beating per se, Barrera was very mindful of Naz's power so he didn't trade with him which was a great idea. That basically expose Naz because he had no other plan but to land one punch and KO Barrera.

Naseem hamed is the last undisputed featherweight champion since I believe Sal Sanchez.

Cleaned out 126 from 1995-2000

you probably wasn't watching boxing then smh

Sanchez was never undisputed.
