He won the European title and twice unified World titles in the Featherweight division. He won his first World title at 21 years old. He was an entertainer and a showman, brash and c0cky but not in an outright offensive way. His style of fighting was great to watch, he himself was like marmite and personally I loved watching his fights. In a career spanning ten year, he spent half that time as a World champion. There is no shame in losing to Marco Antonio Barrera. The shame is that he retired at 28 years old when he could have achieved a lot more.
Was Hamed overrated based on his career? He never really fought anyone did he? And when he did he got beat.
Just a question.
most people don't know shyt about boxing
Naz was 36-1 and 9 wins over world champions.....made the wbo relevant...beat every top 126 in his era and is the most dominant champion there since the sanchez/nelson era.

No because when he had the belt he was beating world class guys, traveling n trying to unify, not disappear n milk a belt vs no names in home town affairs

You gotta be kidding his resume is crap and the first time he stepped in with the real fighters that were not passed it he got beat.

1990s Boxing in the UK was the Golden era. Any praise Naseem has received is warranted, him and Eubank Sr transcended the sport here. Not only due to their persona but their skills in the ring.
