    How would Naz do against today`s feathers? Also how would he have done v Loma and Manny when they were feathers?

    Lomachenko may have fought Naz too soon.

    Pacquiao would have knocked Naz out. Too busy and too fast.

    Naz beats Warrington. I think he could confuse Warrington and catch him on the way in.

    I think Kid Galahad is harder to hit than Naz was, but Naz would have thrown more counters against Warrington, Loma would have had too much savvy for Naz at feather.

    GRJ vs Naz would be interesting.

    I think Naz is underrated because of his loss to MAB. But if you watch how unmotivated and lazy Naz has got to that point, to the point that Manny Steward openly said he wasn’t happy with what he was seeing in camp 2 weeks out from the fight, and the night before the fight Naz was in a sweatsuit shadowboxinh in a sauna. For that Naz to still take 3-4 rounds from a prime MAB says a lot, a peak Naz would have been a lot closer.

    Sounds like a bunch of excuses but fighters do have off nights. Duran’s 2nd fight with SRL is not necessarily reflective of how a fight between them would have gone 10/10 if it was a peak Duran for example.

    People are too quick to paint black and white on things.

    Yeah and the big difference is the power. Those counters would stop Warrington in his tracks.

    Naz got hit for more by MAB than Duran did by Ray in the no mas fight, Ray was only marginally ahead of Duran when Roberto quit but Naz was completely outboxed.

    Fight was 8-4 or 9-3? Similar scorecard to Pac-Morales 1.

    As I said it’s not black and white. When Liverpool plays Manchester Utd maybe 1 team will win the first match and the other on the 2nd match.

    A fighter beating another just means they were better on that night, not every single night thereafter hypothetically. Of course we can weigh the odds as well, that’s why in theory if someone is a 10-1 odds they’re expected to win at least 1/10.

    A prime Naz would be 2-1 underdog at most.

    The fat little turd would have come unstuck against the first proper fighter he fought, just like when Barrera took the fat little arsehole to the cleaners, biggest joke to have come out of Sheffield since United.

    Maybe you should have your own subforum for your many threads on theoretical scenarios that no one can prove either way @mark ant .
