    Kevin Kelly was a good win, so was Wilfredo Vazquez. He stepped up earlier, his luck just ran out.

      Brook is not a better FIGHTER than Hamed. That's also fact.

      No, they are not the same thing. Brook actually uses combos and has a concept of good defense, which Hamed sorely lacked. Hamed had KO power and blistering speed, which Brook can't come close to.

      Good post. I agree partially, I think very highly of Brook and think he will prove he is elite and one of the best, he just needs to get back in the ring with quality opponents. Fury had it right, he is stuck in 2011. I like the guy, but let's go already.

          Listen casual....naz fought the same challengers that guys like barrera and morales could only outpoint. Naz blew them away. He lost to Barrera after losing about 40lbs for the fight. After his next fight he realised his reflexes had gone.

            U guys forget that Naz was really a super bantamweight. He moved up to featherweight because he got an opportunity to fight another Frank Warren promoted fighter for the WBO featherweight title, Steve Robinson. Naz was always small for a featherweight. When Barrera finally moved up naz was struggling at the weight after a long layoff with a broken hand.

            And you guys saying he had no good wins...he beat 47-1-2 kevin kelley...champions steve robinson...tom johnson who was 42-2-2....cesar soto and wilfredo vasquez. He was one of if not THE first fighter to win all 4 titles...WBO...IBF...WBA (was awarded it after beating Vasquez) and WBC along with The ring magazine lineal title and the IBO title.

            Beat alot of good challengers. Former, current or future champions. Was Champ for 5 yrs. 35-0 (31 kos) and many defences.

              Naz was a class act, but he lost his way, got way too arrogant, got rid of his trainer brendan Ingle who made Naz who he was in terms of style. Naz was no where near peak shape when he fought barrera compared to how ingle used to have him ready. He was his own downfall. Shame really could have gone down as one of the best featherweights ever had he gave it 100%. He lost and gave up at the age of 28, such a young age in boxing to retire. Also got to remember Barrera completly changed his style to box naz, from from forward brawler type mexican style to a stand back counter puncher and picked naz of all night long.
