    :D:lol:

    Ive made my piece with the fact he is going to win , Im not mad anymore , but showing him training for the " fight of his life" against a dude yeeeeeaarrrs past his best and half the size of him. Pfffffffff !

    Anyhoo , I know you made a good argument about this before and I like your posts so I'm not gonna fall out over it. I'll just go and watch Morales 1 and Hamed to make myself feel better

    Cool :cool: That sounds like a good idea to me mate.
    Ive only ever watched those fights on Youtube I wish they'd start showing them on TV ESPN Classic or something...in perfect quality.

    The documentary about the build up too the Naz fight is good too , doesn't show Naz in a very good light (probably a bit unfairly) but its a good snapshot of how things had gone off the rails in his camp.

    He really shouldnt be a pro lightweight, I think a step up would do him a world of good. We all know his punch resistance is iffy and draining is not helping that. After the MAB fight I would like to see him at 140.

    Yeah it was good that, while Barrera trained in a public gym up in the mountains,Big Bear I think, Naz lived the high life in Vegas....

    It should serve as a warning to anyone getting too big for their boots and taking their foot of the pedal. :rasta

    I still don't get why people say skinny legs = poor punch resistance. It didn't seem to affect Holyfield and Tommy Hearns. A moot point maybe as Khan clearly has a weak chin but I don't see how it has anything to do with the size of his legs

    ....avoid being punched on the chin.
