Comments Thread For: Naseem Hamed Says Mayweather Was Smart Not To Fight Him

It was the Hamed side that didn't want it. That's old news now though. Barerra ended that hype train. Floyd may have killed him back in those days.

Funny considering Floyd called him out in the post fight interview after defeating Corrales.

I hear what you are saying but young Floyd was also saying at 135 that he wanted to move up and fight De La Hoya at 154... and he did it. If you go back and watch some of those old fights on youTube, you'll be surprised. People say he cherry picked but he was like Spence is now. Calling guys out who would say he's not ready or he hasn't fought anyone.

Haters will spin it. It came a time that nobody wanted to fight Floyd. All the bing names were avoiding him.

Exactly. Most of them dudes wanted no parts of that work during the 'Pretty Boy' stage of Mayweather's career. Hamed included.
