    Naz with an ATG show reel of comments from that fight. Absolutely loved it

    Thought that interview was great, refreshing to see a larger than life personality give an honest opinion rather than keeping it safe and towing the official line.

    Not sure I'd like that for every fight but as one off it was sensational. Honestly don't get how people have a problem with it, it was better than the actual fight.

    The problem is he was being paid to be an expert and talked absolute nonsense for the most part...was entertaining though...

    Had me laughing out loud, but also what a load of it. Eubank Jr retire? C'mon people, be serious.

    Was more entertaining than the fight, and bar his contradictions with his earlier prediction and saying eubank needs to retire, dont really think he talked much nonsense.

    The man was sweating up a storm whilst clearly off his face, interrupting Duke, asking where the camera was so he could direct his vile message to Eubank, to tell him that he should retire at 28 years old.

    There's no doubt he is correct in his assessment of his performance, lack of power and the ridiculous hype which followed Eubank, however he went completely overboard with his criticism - talking about him buying big houses the way he walks etc you could smell the jealously emanating from his fat filthy paws as he gripped hold of that microphone to unload his bile.

    If he had kept it strictly boxing, and balanced his criticisms with some insight and encouragement in terms of solutions instead of wanting to see a relatively young fighter who can still earn a good living quit - then Naz's credibility would still have been upheld. However the fact that it is known that he has a strong dislike towards Eubank Sr, after Sr proved Naz attempted to imitate him during his career, you see how petty and small Naz really is.

    Eubank embarrassed himself, and deserves criticisms, but talk of retirement and to pretend he has no ability or talent whatsover, when fighters like Price have come back time and time again, after comprehensive beatings and humiliations, just shows there was no objectivity in Naz's assessment.

    Did you see the video of him with Bellew afterwards? He's absolutely off his box.

    Don't think Naz is jealous. Naz is still loaded (smart with his money) as well as being viewed as one of the UK's best. His held in a much higher regard than Eubank Jnr.

    The thing about Naz is that he practised what he is preaching. He realised there was a level he just wasn't going to reach when he lost to MAB, and he retired.
