Naseem Hamed vs. Floyd Mayweather at 135lbs

135?

 

What?

 

Dude, Hamed was a TINY guy, he was 5'4, and a featherweight. Floyd Mayweather started, and was best as a super featherweight (130) so that is really the only realistic weight for those two to meet at. Mayweather called out Hamed after being Corrales, Hamed wanted no part of PBF. Floyd would have murdered him, it wouldn't have been a good fight at all. Hamed was not a skilled boxer, he was a strong puncher who was thoroughly exposed against the only true great fighter he faced in Barrera. Floyd as a featherweight had amazing footwork and movement, his defense has always been great, and he would absolutely have destroyed Naseem for lunging in like he always did. PBF had alot more killer instinct back then, and was an extremely strong puncher at featherweight. Go watch his fight against Corrales, when Corrales was the #1 ranked super featherweight, and was in his prime at 33-0. Mayweather wins every round, showing fantastic footwork, amazing defense, and absolutely obliterates Corrales, knocking him down five times. Corrales landed in the single digits EVERY SINGLE round in that fight, when you watch that, you'll understand Hamed wouldn't have even been competitive. Hamed had horrible boxing fundamentals, and won fights strictly off punching power. Floyd has perfect fundamentals, wouldn't be hit by the big shots, and would give Hamed a thorough beating, period. Anyone thinking Hamed had a remote chance is simply clueless about boxing. Not only is Floyd the superior boxer, his style is absolute kryptonite for Hamed's style. Hamed was not a pressure fighter, he liked to throw 30-40 punches a round, which is tailor made for Floyd, who likes to pick his opportunities, and take things at a slow pace. He would be hitting Hamed with huge counters all night long, Hamed often missed big, was constantly off balance, and would eat huge punches all night long.

 

would be the biggest beatdown Hamed would ever receive.

 

Hamed KO01

 

It would have drfinately ended in a draw.

No doubts.

Fact

 

Good lord. He'd faint on the flying carpet he came out on, Floyd would be too good, too fast, too big and too strong for him.

Definatley not at all NO WAY, there's 5 million fights that would be better than this

 

if it happened at 130 back in the days,

i wish it could of been mayweather to deliver the beating rather than barrera.

i watched hamed-barerra as a kid, i would of known mayweather abit earlier than i did.

insted i knew barrera and knew morales cause of trilogy

 

130 Floyd schools him...

 

Naz wins the buildup.

Floyd wins the fight.

 

Hamed would've gotten TKOed. That handsdown wide looping shots that he throws, Floyd would find its mark with ease. Plus Floyd is much bigger than Hamed and is a puncher at 130-135 and was pretty relentless in his offense. I just don't see how the prince can make it past 6 rounds.

 

hamed gets battered
