what loss was more embarrasing

[who_necks]

Hamed was already declining rapidly, wasn't training properly and his hands were shot to pieces by the time he fought Barrera, a hall of fame legendary fighter. That's not an excuse why he lost but a couple of years earlier it could have been a lot different. He still never got dropped or anything either. He was just beaten by a truly great fighter that night. No shame in that and he shouldn't really receive any negativity for it.

Broner on the other hand had talked himself up as the next huge superstar of boxing, with the backing TV networks who were all building him up as their next big PPV star. I think they thought Maidana was going to be an easy fight for them and a good name, and it all went wrong, he was dropped twice and well beaten. But let's remember Broner did show a lot of heart during the fight, he got up and was fighting back and had some success in parts of the fight. There was a few moments from him like the overreaction to the headbutt and not sticking round for the interview that made him look bad. But the guy did show some heart when he was fighting and showed he can stay in there and be tough, he never ran.

So to answer your question, neither were embarrassing.

Hamed lost a 12 round decision to legendary fighter.
Broner lost a 12 round decision to a fighter who is still a world class fighter.

I don't see how either are embarrassing. It's just a loss, big deal.

Chad Dawson's loss to that bum in his last fight has to be mentioned.

nah man, hamed getting full-nelson'd into that corner was nothing less than full on emasculation.

Judah losing to tszyu is still one of the funniest things ever...


Gatti getting beat down by floyd created the saying "he got gatti'd". Or "floyd would gatti that dude". That's how bad of a beat down it was... Gatti turned into a damn verb to describe a massacre in the boxing ring...

that has to be the funniest KO in history, the way he got up pointing his glove to the referee like saying "don't you stop this" in bambi legs, only to fall again less than a second latter

I'd pick naseem vs barrera slightly.

As c-o-c-k-y as Broner was leading up to the fight, you have to go back and review Naseem's comments and attitude leading up to the fight, dude was so c-o-c-k-y he made Broner look humble at times.

One of the Funniest KO's was Powell vs Bundrage 1

hamed was actually.

he didn't eat, live well. nor train hard always.

some fighters have short primes.

new trainer who tried to change his style didn't help.

some guys are better unorthodox and not textbook.

especially with naseem's explosiveness, power and speed.

michael grant to jameel mccline.

dropped by practically a jab and twisted his ankle and quit.

and did i mention it was the 1st punch thrown in the fight in the 1st round?
