Both avoided one another as top featherweights at one point or another during their careers. Who do you think would have actually won this in the late 90s?
Both Avoided one another? LMAO LMAO JMM was the mando for lots of time...and Naseem took on barrera because he saw him as a simpler task... Barrera outboxed and school naseem... JMM would have murdered naseem KTFO
Jmm ud, both guys have an habit of getting dropped but showing heart in getting up, jmm is a much better boxer and would pick hamed apart even if he could get dropped a few time, 115-110 type victory.
JMM UD 10-2 For variety of reasons but mainly style and tactics (both in the ring and in the corner).
styles make fights, and i think JMM's awesome counter punching ability would be too much for Naz to handle and he would of probably got the win by decision Thing is about Naz though he had those nuclear bombs in both hands and if he connected with one it could of been a very different story. But i'd give it to JMM
they were both fairly young when they fought. and barerra had already been in some wars great avi btw:good
JMM gives him the Barrera treatment and wins a UD. But if Hamed lands one of his bombs he can spark him out.
