Hamed has always been overrated reminds me of GGG good against lesser fighter's but fail against prime elites.
Samart was an undefeated, defending world champion when they fought. Fenech whooped him so bad he joined a monastery & became a monk. You know it's a bad arse-whooping when that happens.
every time? He lost once. To an elite hall of famer. By scores of 115-112 (twice) and 116-111. At a time he clearly wasn't training or dedicated anymore.
Did you actually even watch Fenech vs Nelson 1? Fenech beat the absolute **** out of Nelson. It was the biggest robbery I've ever seen. Mike Tyson and everybody ringside couldn't believe it was scored a draw.
Lol the excuses are pathetic like Deontay Wilders. If he 'wasn't training or dedicated'' he would not have made the weight for a start.. The second Hamed stepped up to face anyone of note.. Barrera absolutely DOMINATED Hamed from start to finish in a VERY one sided fight. It was an embarrasing mismatch. Barrrera was just simply far too good for him. Barrera beats Hamed 100 times out of a 100, there is levels. Hamed realised he could never ever mix with the elite that night. Hence why retired at an early age after that fight. Mayweather. Pacqiuao, Morales, Marquez would have all beat him with ease too
Not only did I watch, I was there big brother Uncle Azumah was not at his best due to suffering from malaria illness, but he still won the fight 116-112 on my scorecard and one of the judges as well. In the rematch big brother Uncle Azumah promised he will take good care of the Thunder from down under and we went to Australia and assassinated Jeff Fenech. Fenech was good but our beloved Uncle Azumah showed him why we call him the Emeritus Professor of Boxing.
Excuses are pathetic. You are probably the only person in the world who agreed with that crooked judge. Fenech clearly won that fight, it's not even up for debate.
Clearly at least 2 of the 3 official judges did not think Fenech won nor did I and several others. The great and legendary boxing manager and promoter Mickey Duff thought Nelson won the first fight. Like a true champion he gave Fenech a rematch in his country and hometown and legally murdered him to make it clear who was the better man or are you going to make excuses for Fenech’s loss . At least Jeff was a man unlike Baroness Betty McGiggle who avoided Uncle Azumah.
No I don't make excuses like you do, we are not talking about the other fight. I'm talking about the first fight, and you know Nelson did not win that fight. You overrate Nelson. He was no Harry Greb/ Willie Pep/Sugar Ray Robinson like you seem to claim he is.
I did not compare him to anyone because he is a unique fighter. He is in my opinion better than both Harry Greb and Willie Pep. He and Sandy Saddler would have been a great fight. Does anyone other than Charley Burley really equate to Sugar Ray Robinson.
smh Harry Greb faced 16 Hall Of Famers a combined total of 48 times during his career and beat most of them. Don't even put Nelson in the same sentence as him
Greb did more in one year than Nelson in his entire career. Saying that Nelson was greater than Greb or Pep is one of the dumbest things ever said on this forum. It had to come from a deranged bottom feeder floyd groupie.
