    I think he'd have lost all three and tgey would been as one sided as the Barrera fight were, and one or two of them wouldve probably KO'd him too. No wonder he retired, it was clear he couldn't compete with the elite.

    Agreed! Hamed was a very gifted fighter, but he was flawed defensively in terms of proper technique. If he was to get in there with a guy like Marquez who had excellent timing and could cut the ring off, Hamed's defensive short comings would have become apparent, much like in his fight with Barrera. That being said, I could see Marquez and Morales hitting the floor. Hamed's angles and awkward style did give him offensive opportunities.

    If Hammed's left hand didn't fall apart on him I think he could've potentially beat all three, but without his power he gets easily outboxed by all three. I noticed in the Barrera fight Hammed was barely using his left hand. If that left hand were still good I don't think Barrera would've won that fight.

    Nah.. Pac might get the KO DUE to an accumilation of punches, But Morales and JMM would likely decision NAZ... Naz was pretty durable despite the flash KD'S he dealt with in a hand full of fights.

    All 3 beat him. But he by no means a bum.

    Strangely enough i think he has the best chance vs 126lb Pacquiao (still think he loses) as he would always struggle with boxers with great fundamentals who weren't afraid of him
