Did Hamed Lose his Nerve against Barrera?

Yes, you are right. I don't know enough English for serious conversation and if it wasn't for google translator I wouldn't be on this forum.
I interpreted who lost their temper. And MAB lost his temper, and this with wrestling is not the only example in the fight.
There are more examples in that fight. When Naz presses the glove to touch gloves and make up, Barrera refuses to do so.

 

Excellent post.

I suspect Naz was the hardest single puncher in FW history, too. Not most effective and he'd lose to fighters other FWs would KO, but in terms of pure 1 punch power, he likely edges Sadler and Lopez for me.

His resume can be a little underrated, too, imo. He beat a fair amount of very good fighters. I rank him #19 all time at FW, based solely on fights contested at or around that weight. Not an ATG, but that's not too shabby.

 

Not intentionally being negative but I just care more about what goes on in that squared circle. Which was Hamed being completely outclassed against Barrera. Full credit to Barrera for that win.

 

Hamed was exposed in the Kelley fight, he was dropped on several occasions & appeared vulnerable, you were given the impression a great fighter would give him serious trouble which is what happened when he faced Barrera.

 

I'm a Barrera fan, but did he fight the best version of Hamed?

Hamed was 27, should of been in prime physical condition, wasn't due to cutting corners, cutting weight badly and no self discipline. Manny Steward only oversaw the last two weeks of camp.

Disastrous camp indeed.

One fighter MAB highly motivated, the other handed a lesson that high class opponents if taken lightly you will be handed a schooling, he was.

 

Barrera,s foot placement is excellent in this fight. Stays away from naz,s left hand by circling to naz,s right...was pretty much the start of naz,s struggles. Took the left hand out of play making it easier for him to start controlling the distance.

 

No he just got exposed for being an overrated hypejob.
