I remember seeing an interview where Floyd Mayweather said he idolised Naz Hamed.....

:rofl

Morales who had three hard fought close wars with Barrera. Barrera set the blueprint on fighting Nas, exposed all his flaws. Morales would of just improved on that and put on a clinc.

What happened after the Barrera fight? Hamed needed an easy fight to regain some confidance and fought some C level Spaniard ( Manuel Calvo ) and was running in the last rounds. You are telling me Hamed would of KO'd Morales :rofl

You are the epitome of delusional my friend.

 

:deal the thread starter dreamt this up. Floyd never said that. He did call Hamed out we all know that. The interview this guy is talking about didn't happen

 

Naz was the one who brought money into the 'little man' division. Floyd was fighting for $100k back the while Naz was on $10m pay days.

Of course Floyd admired him, Mallignagi admired him too, they all wanted to be like Naz as well as having that coin. Back then they could only dream of it.

 

And Naz probably hits harder than Ortiz

 

Styles make fights, I think Naseem hit him and hurt him badly early, and I forssee no late fight comeback, Morales could box him and beat him easily, but the fighter in him would start slugging, and Naz simply hit too hard for that

 

Lol thats a stretch
ortiz can crack

 

I know, I was trying emphasize the point that Hamed had unheard of power, I wonder if the stories of him sparring and hurting heavyweights are true

 

You do understand that if your corner stops the fight your opponent has still "stopped you", right?

:yep

 

It's because he NEVER said it lol. He wanted to fight him, because he was the draw at the time. Nothing more.

 

Naz would of had a tougher more complex puzzle in figuring out Mayweather because he is a master counter puncher. You are right Barrera is aggressive but against Naz he wasn't his usual aggressive self he was more cerebral. If Barraera would of been strainght aggressive he would of took more shots form the Prince.

Sure Floyd had some early problems against Zab, but after around the 6th it was all Floyd my friend. Floyd is on a different level skillwise and mentaly.

 

When offered the fight,Hamed replied,"How many times do you want me to move up?"Hilarious considering Hamed was challenged to move up ONLY TWO POUNDS while Mayweather offered TO MOVE DOWN TWO POUNDS.

 

Hamed COULD NOT HAVE FIGURED OUT A MASTER BOXER like Mayweather.Hamed had the ring IQ of a turtle.Mayweather would have made him look sillier than MAB did.
