    Leo Santa Cruz vs Naseem Hamed

    I know I may be the minority here but I would go with Leo. I think Leo is the more disciplined and technical boxer. Leo also has a solid chin and knows how to cut off the ring pretty well. Naseem has the athletic and power advantage but I just couldn't see him outpointing Leo who is a superior boxer even compared to Barrera P4P. Who you got?

    You think santa Cruz is better than Barrera? That's a big statement and simply not true. Naz carried big power and leo is quite easy to hit and I think naz would stop him in 9.

      When it comes to the technical aspect I would say Leo is a better boxer while Barrera is the better fighter. Leo has a chin while Naz don't. Naz never even beat an opponent better than Frampton so I would not give him the benefit of the doubt over someone like Cruz. Cruz is just too disciplined and technical IMO. I would go out on a limb and say that Frampton and Rigo beat Naseem also.

        When it comes to technical aspects? Leo made so many mistakes that Barrera would not do in his lifetime against Frampton.

            Hamed would've toyed with LSC to a nasty KO.

              I love Santa Cruz but this sounds like a realistic ending. Leo is fairly easy to hit while he is throwing his 100 + punches a round. Naz had one punch fight changing power.

                    Naz doesn't have a chin? You do realise he was never KO and all his KDs were because he was off balance or leaving his chin in the air. In every fight he was KD (Kelley, Alicea, Sanchez) he got up and KOED them. The punch Kelley landed would have put anyone to sleep. Chinny? I think not
