Why was Barrera able to beat Naseem Hamed so easily?

Marco Antonio Barrea was able to easily beat Naseem Hamed because he fought a very disciplined, patient, slow paced and cautious fight.
For instance, He countered very effectively, whenever the Prince attempted to rush him with those wide lead right hand haymakers of his, he likes to throw off the front foot. Moreover, whenever Barrera hurt him, he never got overly reckless to the point of chasing Hamed in pursuit of a KO because that was what Naseem was anticipating but MAB simply refused to take the bait.
In addition, Barrera chose his spots very carefully and mostly fought in spurts in a defensive boxer-counter puncher position where he was able to out jab Naseem. He didn't fight in the typical Mexican style which had confused Hamed. Simply put, Barrera just outclassed him.
In other words, he used a mixture of confidence, poise, skill, wit and ring intelligence in order to defeat Naseem Hamed.

He was the more fundamentally talented fighter, all that flash Hamed had hide all of his flaws and Barrera just exposed them

2 great fighters, but barrera was more fundamentally sound, and when prince was faced with such high skill level, his sloppy technique and flaws got exposed

Prince kinda reminds me of Vic darchiyan.. Helluva fighter but could be exposed as sloppy and not technically sound

if they both ran and trained the exact same amount of time barrera will still beat nas, all these dumb asses saying, preparation, lack of motivation DKSAB, if hamed was prepared and motivated he still will be limited skill wise and barrera beat him with skills and skills alone.

Hamed's first fight in vegas i believe.
LOOOOOL at not being up for it.
one of the lamer and weaker excuses for MAB embarrassing that jihadi goofball.
Hamed would have been a much better fighter had he been an atheist.
Islam, his arrogant pushing of the religion ruined him.
That night vs barerra was just a glorious night.
