    :roll:

    yeah of course, he easily KO's a guy who wasn't stopped once during his entire career.

    Two warriors i think Hamed wins this though. His power really was unbelievable and if both opened up he'd lay him out

    If it was prime for prime (as poll suggests) then it would be very difficult to predict as Hamed was a far better fighter back in the mid 90's than he was when he met Barrera. He got sloppy and started believing his own hype and once he axed his trainer it was all downhill from there.

    I believe the Hamed who beat Robbo would have beated Erik but what a fight it would have been.

    Hamed wasnt much of a brawler, he caught people with big shots. 1 shot wouldnt be enough to stop Morales, it would take accumulation and Hamed simply wont land enough for that. Morales was also 5'8 whereas Hamed was like 5'3, the height difference is huge and should Morales opt to box, Hamed has no chance. Morales also knows when to box and press, due to Hameds bad balance, soon as Morales pops him a few and goes forward I can see Hamed falling all over the place.

    Morales was the less disciplined of the two (meaning Barrera) so in my opinion would get into a war with Hamed and would get KO'd.

    No one gets in close with a prime Hamed and survives. His power was devastating.

    I watch much lesser fighters than Morales take bombs after bombs in BW against Hamed and survive to the 7th+ rounds. Its a myth that "anything he hit, he desloys!". Sure if he hit Morales enough times as he did those bums, Morales would eventually fall but the chances of him hitting him that many times is very unlikely. More than likely is that Morales would outbox him from a distance and when Hamed is disorientated he would go for the kill. He might catch a bomb here and there for that tactic but it really would not be enough to put his lights out.

    A prime Hamed was almost untouchable , he was faded when he fought MAB. Hamed on points or late stoppage for me.

    He could knock anyone out with 1 punch prime.

    Remember that this is prime 4 prime and Hamed was no way near prime when he fought Kelley (I watched that fight last night and Hamed was awful)


    Prime Hamed win by KO in my book

    The Hamed that fought Barrera I agree would lose and get outboxed for most of the fight.

    A Prime Hamed is a whole different story in my opinion.

    A prime Hamed was the guy who fought Barrera ... he was a champion was still in his 20's.

    Barrera was coming off a loss ...
