    I just wrote the truth. Who did Hamed fight that was as good as Nelson?

    Irrelevant to my point. I think Nelson wins this but Hamed isn’t a helpless drooling mess that “wouldn’t win an exchange” you’re being unnecessarily silly with your claims.

    Irrelevant to MY point. I never wrote Hamed might not win an exchange against Nelson. And I wrote Hamed might not win an exchange against SANCHEZ. I wrote Hamed might get SHUTOUT against Nelson. If you are going to quote me, please get it right the next time.

    I don't necessarily subscribe to the idea that Nelson was a level above Barrera, especially when I thought Nelson lost to Calvin Grove and Mario Martinez the first time around. He also obviously lost to Fenech in one of the worst decisions in boxing history, but I still love Nelson and he was an unbelievable fighter. Far too strong for Hamed, who wouldn't even have an equaliser in this match up. Nelson by mid-rounds stoppage. Honestly, I think Nelson would walk right through him.

    I would take Nelson over MAB and EM at 126 and 130 too, I think. Maybe even JMM. But he wasn't levels above those guys when you compare legacies and achievements.

    Hamed gets the Gomez treatment.

    Is Sanchez really a level above Barrera?

    Azumah, Hamed is..of course no fluke,very good and was elite for some time until Barrera made him into a speedbag.

    But I believe that Azumah would've adapted near rounds 3-5,and actually school Naz bad.
