Hamed was just physically gifted. Barrera took that away and Hamed was clueless. He was completely out class and given a boxing lesson. So bad he went into retirement. Inoue by far the better fighter
Just watch the Sanchez, Soto, McCollough fights. When someone stands up with a bit of power and patience to Naz he whimpers and runs. Soto hit him with one hook and Hamed went into survival mode the entire fight. One of the worst fights Ive ever seen. Hamed has a one punch chance. Inoue has like 9 in his arsenal to end it
Inoue was an overwhelming favourite how many picked Fulton to win on this forum ? Fulton has 8 stoppages compared to Hamed who is an ATG puncher and one of the hardest hitting Featherweights of all time. Inoue is a better fighter than Hamed P4P, but at Featherweight it would be a dangerous fight for him.
Barrera fought much tougher comp and it's not close. How fast would Inoue be after a few left hooks to the liver? This isn't Pokemon trading cards; listing attriubtes like that is pointless. I wouldn't even say that he would be the bigger puncher at 126, anyway.
Hamed is one of my favorite fighters ever, but Inoue is the greater fighter. His demolition job of Fulton was very impressive.
Inoue's been so dominant he makes everyone look like chumps. One trick pony Pac put a savage beating on Barrera. Inoue would destroy him. But you're the guy that said Crawford's got a far better resume than Inoue, so we know you're a biased cuck.
Why can't he achieve what Pac has? "One dimensional" 126lb Pac was better than Barrera and essentially equal with Morales and JMM. Inoue has not proven to be as good and got his face broken by a 37 year-old shopworn Donaire before waiting three years to give him a rematch.
Hamed has a good shot at knocking out most 126 lb'ers. Knocking out Inoue at 126 who Inoue hasn't had a significant fight there, or any, wouldn't do much for Hamed. Inoue still wrecks him. Sanchez knocked Hamed down how many times, washed up Kelley? Soto..... Get real.
