    Sometimes, there are fighters who are extremely physically gifted, whether they have great punching power, or blazing fast hands, but they just don't have the ring IQ to go with their physical abilities.

    Who were some fighters like that?

    Troy Williamson defending his 154 British title from the challenge of regional peer Josh Kelly, who needs a statement victory to rejuvenate his forgotten hype.

    I think with Naz it was more his ego making him think he could not put the work in and dump his trainer and just win on talent alone. Basically the hunger wasn't there anymore and he was fighting simply for the money and fame by the end.
