    The guy was never knocked out or even knocked down and hurt (knocked down when off-balance yes) yet in every poll on here we have a bunch of nobs who probably only ever saw Naz V Barrera claiming he will be KO'd in every fantasy match up ever created!

    That being said, Pacquiao would make mincemeat out of him.

    Naz's prime was shorter than it should've been.

    Naz is one of the most misunderstood fighter on this forum. Hardly anyone here is aware of how far from prime Hamed was by the time he suffered his first loss.

    if you put Naz in with ATG fighters, it's understandable that he will always lose.

    Though he had amazing power he was tough on the eyes from a technical standpoint ..

    Fed tomato cans and ducked serious opposition so much that he became first boxer ever to capture all World titles in one division.

    He didn't fight the very best, or stick around to fight the very best...but come on.

    It never ceases to amaze me that dislike that is still around for Hamed, after all this time, there is a still a pocket of fans that dislike him.
