    I think I was talking about weight etc.
    But...I'm starting to like the sound of this one.
    Naz was meant to fight Gatti and Mayweather...I will tell the tales of those two fights next week on the show. Gatti was a done deal. Honest. Mayweather was a massive fan and I interviewed him before the Hamed v Barrera fight on camera.
    Brendan wanted Naz to fight Steve Collins - it seems mad now but trust me when I say that it looked possible then.

    Adios.

    I was watching an early Mayweather fight the other night ( cant remember which one ) and the commentators and Manny Steward were all about a Mayweather / Hamed fight.

    If Naz had been focused who knows ?

    Totally surreal question but does anyone think that if Naz carried his p4p power at his walking around weight he COULDN'T drop Cooper if he caught him?

    Its something Buncey claimed a few years back and i wondered if anybody agreed.
    I didnt want to bias it by saying i think its ridiculous too,so just asked the question.

    Mayweather would of dismantled Naz. He could match Naz for speed for in attach and defence. only thing Naz had over him was power but Mayweather could bang at super feather. at super Mayweather would have been the bigger man, he could bully guys at super feather.

    Get Floyd on the boxing hour!!!

    Yeah i agree.

    Cooper is getting on a bit and he's giving a lot weight away to Naz.
