Guillermo Rigondeaux vs Prince Naseem
Collapse
-
Hamed by KO.
Hamed got dropped a few times but that was arguably his biggest weakness. Rigo has been dropped a few times as yet defensive godness is supposed to be his biggest strength. Even if Hamed was dropped multiple times in the fight, Rigo would stand off and he'd recover. If Rigo got hurt once Hamed would likely stop him.Comment

Both are accurate punchers, but Rigo's defense alone is not Hamed's style. He would lose mostly all rounds in Barrera fashion.Last edited by Lester Tutor; 09-22-2015, 02:34 PM.Comment

People just spitting out Barrera's name like he wasn't a ****ing god
In what way does Rigondeaux fight like Barrera ?, their style are miles apart from each other, Barrera took the fight too Hamed, in what world do people really think that Rigondeaux is going would even attempt that ?, besides Hamed hadn't been with Ingle for some time at that point and wasn't looking as good as he was in his peak years be it Barrera still beats Nas with Ingle, he had his number, but Nas would've been a lot better.
Neither Nas or Rigo have fought anyone like each other, it's a hard fight to predict, other then Nas by KO or Rigo by decision.
People always make like it was a complete domination but Naz won a few rounds there too, it was closer than people remember. Naz was often off balance and missing widely which makes people remember it as a domination.
barerra fought a perfect fight, he applied just the right amount of pressure but was very controlled, he would land his but then let naz go instead of chasing him across the ring and opening himself up for counters. He avoided getting into balls to the wall exchanges like in morales 1.
naz was getting frustrated, he would do his usual show boating and barrera would catch him, where as he could usually get away with it, then after he landed barrera would let him go and not give him countering opportunities.
people also forget his speed, at 122-126 barrera and morales were both fast guys. naz wasnt that much faster than barrera at 126 by that time in his career.Last edited by elfag; 09-22-2015, 02:36 PM.Comment

his chin was solid, he got dropped from being off balance due to his style. wasnt seriously hurt the times he was dropped.Comment

The way you describe how Barrera fought, and Nas' reaction, is very similar to how I see a Rigondeaux fight at 122lbs going. I give Nas a better punchers chance vs Rigo than he had vs MAB but the stylistic problems are still there. Rigo's balance, footwork, ring generalmanship and counter punching would be a nightmare for Hamed.People always make like it was a complete domination but Naz won a few rounds there too, it was closer than people remember.

Look if my guy Kevin kelly didn't go toe to toe, Hamed would not have had a chance to use his power! Hamed was down, not unusual, but Rigo hits just as hard, and is very accurate! Ask Donaire about how hard Rigo hit!The way you describe how Barrera fought, and Nas' reaction, is very similar to how I see a Rigondeaux fight at 122lbs going.

Rigo would have beaten the crap out of that hands down Hamed easily! Custom made for Rigo!
He would have ripped Hamed up, and Hamed would have retired immediately after that fight! Similar to how Hamed acted after the Barrera fiasco!
Nothing funnier than when a guys trash talk catches up with him, and he looks the fool! I do miss his ring entrances! What a showman!Comment
