    Whenever I see 'favourite fights' lists, we always get the usual Hagler/Hearns, Gatti/Ward, etc. Rarely do I see this FANTASTIC match between southpaws mentioned, probably the most entertaining of Hamed's whole career. I was reminded about just how good it is due to the recent highlight from the, as always, superb Gorilla Productions:

    It was actually this fight that apparently inspired Malignaggi, as he was sitting ringside and was amazed by the flashiness and drama that the Prince inserted into the sport. (Even though he was there supporting Kelley.)

    Love this fight. Kelly was in some wars in his career. Check out the one with Derrick Gainer.

    More of a train crash than a boxing match, but that's no bad thing.

    Who the **** under rates this fight?
    If it was under rated, you probably wouldn't even know it happened.
    It's called the featherweight version of Ron Lyle vs George Foreman.

    Underrated by who?

    The whole premise of this event was on point, from Kevin Kelly watchin Naz at ringside when he beat boom boom..then on to the funny back and forth exchanges at the press conference. The dynamic ring walk entrance by Naz wh9ich lead to the brutal onslaught between the two Bad Boys!!!

    what a Night..wish i was there!

    This was a quality fight, Hamed usually guaranteed an exciting one.
