    just stumbled across the fight and this is the first time I watched the fight in full I was expecting it to be a one sided fight by bareera battering hamid but it was not like that all I saw was bareera just counter punching hamid and fighting cautious

    Naz vs Rigondeaux would have been a great fight. Rigondeaux uses his punching power to look as an invincible boxer & Hamed used his boxing skills to look as an invincible puncher

    they always said having great power is a double edged sword because you come reliant on it and fall in love with it.

    this was a true boxing display by barrera who was a 3 to 1 underdog going into the fight and it was expected of barrera to go toe to toe with hamed.

    he was not exactly "running" either. it really pissed me off how hamed was acting in that fight.. he was trying to toy with barrera even in the late rounds when it became clear to everyone barrera had a commending lead..

    I had it something like 8rds to 4.

    Barrera was the smarter fighter with the better gameplan wheras Hamed was swinging for the fences all night trying to take Marco out with one punch.

    I still think Hamed from a few years earlier would have beat Barrera but guess we'll never know for sure.

    Lol Hamed got hustled thinking that barrera would go toe to toe. Barrera said that he
    Was very aware of naseem power amd said along the lines that he knew that hamed could make some one dizzy . Barrera outboxed hamed amd had hamed chasing him around the ring lol swinging for the fences barrera had me fooled too i thought he would go toe to toe. Like he did in all of his fights

    Barrera stunk the joint out to beat Hamed and got applauded for it ! he knew he couldn't take any chances what so ever against Hamed or he'd be seeing stars.

    The way Barrera fought made the fight very very dull to watch.

    Hamed is probably p4p the deadliest puncher of all time

    Also ultra talented
