manny steward certainly said it but i see your point. still, watching naseem there was a world but that could be attributed to superior competition over the years and not just declining skills
Honestly people are underrating Naz too much and overrating FW pacman Pacman would not give Hamed the same problem that Barrerra did, u do NOT brawl with Hamed at FW. Barerra to his credit, fought a very smart fight and Pac does not fight like MAB Sorry but Pac would be KTFO, im sure he was knocked out by lesser fighters in one of those lower divisions and those who think hes going to satnd in front of Hamed must be smoking crack Secondly Hamed skills had declined by the time he fought Barrera, i thought his previous fight with AUgie Sanchez showed that he was there to be taken. Hence why MAB came out with that "Naz Is Next" tshirt Shame his ego was too big for him to ever get over that loss
Im a massive hamed fan but I cant see his style of defence working against pacquaio at all, he'll just get caught off balance and knocked down so often even if hes not hurt, though sometimes obviously getting caught by pac will hurt him he has a chance if he lands a truly massive shot right on the button but id make pac a strong strong favourite
