Also, unearthed an interesting factoid: 77-4-3 amateur record (over 90% win rate, about level with Vernon Forrest's for perspective...) and had wins over Andy Lee (decision) and Juan Ubaldo (1st round stoppage). Ubaldo is undefeated but hasn't stepped up as a pro...prior to the loss to Hassan, though, he widely outpointed Jean Pascal.

![]() I'd like to see him fight a well known figure. He's fought some okay guys in a European context but I'd like to see him take that next step. Leaving France would help. |

^^ Thanks yal. Nice pictures, was that from when Haye fought Mormeck?
Keep up the good work. We are all converted Hassan fans, we rely on you for information! Try and get those videos for us when possible. |

Just watched the fight against Guarras. Hell of a fight!
His defence was poor in this fight. He got hit a few times by big shots and was buzzed. Also you wouldn't expect to be seeing him have such trouble at this stage, though Guarras was very game and made it a brawl. Hassan should have given himself a bit of space and picked this guy apart. He landed a great left hook to finish it, its that punch again. Obviously he had 3 fights between this fight and the Martirosyan fight so perhaps he's matured, or perhaps the recklessness and chance taking of Guarras is what caused him trouble. |

Possibly, it was just a bit sloppy compared to what I watched against Martirosyan where he in control throughout. The guy he fought was quite ambitious and game, I noticed it was part of the tournament which probably explains that, seems NDNJ got caught up in the excitement of it too.
Gonna have a look at the sparring with Balzsay now. |

Sorry IntentionalHeadbutt, it appears the only highlights of the games in Athens are of GAmboa, Rigondeaux and Povetkin (surprise surpirse)! Lee was the only 1 who qualified from Ireland and N'ijkam was with Cameroon. I think the score was 27:27 before the countback. Anyway they both seem to be doing well and 1 or either of them could be on their way to a Euoropean title. Actually I can imagine Nijkam going after Sylvester. Macklin said he is willing to fight Lee and defend the EBU title! |
