    Prime for prime. Two of Britain's greatest ever featherweights.

    International Boxing Hall of Famer Barry 'the Clones Cyclone' McGuigan, aka "Bazza" verus non-Hall of Famer, the legendary legend that is 'Prince Naseem Hamed' - who wins and how?

    Hamed would choose the time when the fight was over. It would likely be Hamed KO second minute of the second round

    Yeah, McGuigan's 1 world title and 2 succesful defences apparently mean he is better qualified for the HOF than Hamed with his 3 world titles and 17 defences.

    Barry Mcguigan always seemed a big fan of THE PRINCE.

    Prime Hamed was too powerful for Barry McGuigan.

    Barry's style plays right into Naz's hands, Hamed K.O 4.

    I didn't know he was called 'Bazza' or that a legend could be anything other than legendary.

    Hamed easy KO??? No chance... Both Scott Harrison and Barry Mcguigan would have caused Naz a hell of a lot of problems. Seems like Naz gets over-rated and under-rated in equal measure on here. Paul Ingle, in essence a poor mans Mcguigan came very close to beating Naz by setting an uncomfortable pace and using intelligent lateral movement. Mcguigan was stronger and more powerful the Ingle. Naz was damn good and one of my favourite fighters but the idea that he would have blown Barry away early is simply ridiculous. Cesar Soto brought nothing to the table other then strength and a left hook. 12 rounds later he' still standing.
