I get being fat for a while, but I am surprised Naz has chucked away most of his thirties being a walking sphere. Has there really been no point where he has missed being, as Eubank puts it, "a superior physical specimen"? You'd have thought at some point he'd have had enough of looking that way and hit the gym for 6 months. Forget any 'return', I get it that he's retired on his 50 million quid, I just mean vanity training. You're in your fifties, sixties and seventies a long time - that is the correct time to get all fat if that is your thing - why chuck away your thirties when you have been an elite athlete in your twenties? I don't get it... and so conclude there is some fact or other that the public are not aware of with Naz. Perhaps he has other habits that have robbed him of reason.
Agree.Won a bit of money on that one.The first time he met a great at his peak.Also the first time he went into one thinking he'd probably lose.First time he bellyached over the gloves.First time he didn't jump over the rope.First time he showed any respect to an opponent before a fight.Having said that,he was a near great fighter himself,had some great battles.
Yes entertaining fighter no fan of his totally disrespectful to opponents & when faced with a fighter that wouldn't be fazed by him backed down from doing so. Great British fighter only beyond that no great fighters on the world stage bounce back he didn't,he couldn't once the aura was exposed he was done elite World level no shame in that.
All very true.He was faced with a Mexican tough guy who had seen it all before and wasn't past it.Consequently he was very humble before,and especially after,this fight.Not saying he lacked courage in the ring,he obviously had that. But in this fight he showed he had a bit of a bully mentality,and in the fact he only fought once afterwards.Plus he must have made pots of money and probably wasn't a spendthrift apart from,unfortunately,cars that go too ****ing fast.
