    Never liked Naz, but he's fairly funny here.

    Most the other time though, saw him as a bit of a ... who needed to cash the cheques his mouth was writing, but he never did - and never felt he could either.

    Naz said Mayweather can go down as the best fighter that ever lived...then said its distasteful how Floyd talks to his opponent...oh the irony :patsch

    The fight would've been far more compelling had Kevin not been ko'd just 2 1/2 years before by a forgettable alphabet belt holder.

    You forgot that he also admitted that he used to 'talk' to the opponent too, but that, unlike Floyd, he usually did it in a tongue-in-cheek way, which is actually quite accurate, as evidenced by the Kelley video.

    Mayweather's words & trash talk to opponents outside the ring are usually worse than Hamed's trash talk, while it's the opposite in the ring. Hamed's taunting of Robinson in the ring seemed rather extreme and harsh, although I was glad Hamed was gracious afterwards and immediately embraced Robinson.

    That was much different than one other opponent of Hamed's, I think Molina? Molina was complaining to the ref about the stoppage and Hamed just sort of put his glove in his face as he walked past, sort of mocking and belittling him.

    I don't like Mayweather much, but I gotta admit, he gets into his opponent's head, but he definetly shows much respect after the fight.

    :lol: I dont know whats to be humbled about. To go 12 rounds with prime Barrera, and come out with 2 judges calling it 115-112, dont forget, right around the same time Johnny Tapia lost to Barrerra by a much larger margin....
    Seriously I love how people who dont know boxing or boxing history get a few hilites of that Naz-Barrerra fight and think they have the whole story line sorted out....

    Naz is one of my favourite fighters of all time; he's the one that really got me into boxing at a young age; I had never seen anything like him at the time and the things he used to do in the ring I just couldn't believe. When he used to lunge whilst punching and knocking the person spark out. Awesome. One of a kind.

    :deal

    its almost like the fight has been changed on here to a beating of Calzaghe V Lacy proportions.
