he was a decent fighter with a lot of flash. He proved what kind of man he was when MAB whooped him. He deserves little if any respect!
I was pretty pissed when i watched Barrera use rough tactic on Naz, but as the fight went on i ended up being more pissed at Naz for letting him do it!!
Naz didnt exactly man up and give him some back, remember Naz was seen to be the stronger guy with a bigger punch before the fight.
Naseem Hamed no matter what any americans our ****** haters say. Was one of the best bantamweight, super-Bantamweight, and at Featherweight one of the greatest of all time. He has never been given credit for becoming the undisputed Featherweight champion. Tom Johnson was IBF Champion, Israel Vasquez WBA Featherweight chammpion (who later fought Juan Lacazno (a lightweight who fought for the world title last year), Cesar Soto WBC champion.
They all talk about Hopkins holding four titles. If it was not for politics he would have all the titles at the same time.
everybody loses and I would rather him sit out for a couple of years o retire but he will come back may never be the same a bit like Roy Jones. But one thing he can say that not a lot of fighters can HE WAS KNOCKED KNOCKED OUT just ask the greatest fighters of our time
Lennox Lewis (twice)
Roy Jones (twice)
Oscar De La Hoya (body shot)
Terry Norris
Azumah Nelson (yes he got stopped by Sanchez) he even ducked Hamed
I can go on but am sure u understand facts are facts

Barrera only did that because he was acting like a frustrated little boy. Naseem landed a HUGE left hook in a semi-clinch that pissed Marco off right before he did this.
The question lies in where and how you give out respect.
I tend to give more respect to someone who is respectful of others, who is a sportsman, with good conduct, who isn't arrogant or pompous, and who treats others good.
His attitude may have been in question, which might make some (like me) respect him less, right or wrong.
but as far as ring respect, I doubt anyone can challenge him being a great boxer, at least not with any solid proof.
VK also hasn't been KO'd in any professional or ameture kickboxing or boxing
Hamed was a coward...the only world class fighter he fought in Barrera, he got his ass whipped and suddenly disappeared.Looks like he cant back up his big mouth with heart...i sure hope he comes back and faces the PACMAN...He will surely get an ass beating double of what MAB did to him!!
