    Naz was no good against fighters that had a long reach, Rigo has a longer reach than Loma who was the bigger manwhen they met as Rigo was moving up two weight clases to fight him, Loma knew how to dominate a fighter with a longer and Hamed didn`t as was proven vs Kelly who gave Hamed all he could handle due to his reach and jab, Rigo is as quick as Hamed and Kelly were and that`s the edge Naz used to have over his foes, most of them were slow and didn`t have the amazing reflexes of Rigo so would get caught by Hamed`s much vaunted power after missing the Prince with predictable angles, Rigo would have been by far the most unpredictable opponent of Hamed`s career, the nearest Naz got to Rigo`s level was Barrera and he got completely exposed, Haamed didn`t have the savvy to wrk out Rigo the way Loma did, no comparison I feel.

    Kevin Kelly, he put up the best fight vs Naz and had the best record everyone else was beaten easily apart from Barrera, Medina and Alicea, I only picked Alicea because he decked Hamed, Naz went on to blow him away in the second Rd, Medina was beating Naz until he got stopped in the 11th, but Medina didn`t have Kelly`s power or he would have won because he hit Naz more than anyone except Barrera, the fight with Kelly was one of the most exciting fights I ever seen.

    Rigo I think would have destroyed him in pretty embarrassing fashion.

    The Rigo of the Donaire fight would outclass Hamed.
