Once,just once,prove where my points are blinkered.Once.Because you haven't yet even though I've responded to all of you crap contris.And once again,I know NO ONE that became a fan of boxing because of dickhead Hamed,and he most certainly DID NOT create any kind of "mini resurgence" of the sport where I come from.Maybe where you're from,but most certainly NOT where I'm from.And just for the record.Your **** article wasn't presented by you to show the economic impact of hamed on the sport to start the thread in the 1st place.It was written to make more excuses for his one loss and glorify,as well as exaggerate,his pretty good(at best)list of opponents.Your article mentions that Kelley was a 2 time champ,but failed to mention that he was dramatically slipping based on his tko loss those 2 1/2 years before the Hamed loss and his 2 draws against mediocrities going into the same time frame.How so convenient for you,as well as being intellectually dishonest on your part.Good job.Not!!!

 

I believe he was like eubank simply there for the money and attention he didn't care about legacy or coming back just wanted to make his money.He should have rematched barrera and trained much harder but he had made his money and left the sport tail between his legs.

 

Just another crap post from a hamed enabler.First off,you still haven't proved where my points are "blinkered".And second,the "small corner of the world I inhabit" is New York City,which has a far greater boxing tradition than whatever insignificant section of the world in which you exist.And maybe hamed brought more interest than any featherweight in history in his native England,but not here.In New York,he's just a blip on the featherweight scene.Here,he's a circus act that fought NYC native Kevin Kelley in MSG.When we in New York talk about great featherweight fights and fighters in MSG,we usually discuss Sal Sanchez-Azumah Nelson(2 ATG featherweights that certainly would have embarrassed hamed much worse that MAB did),who had an epic 15 round battle here in the 80's. We all knew Kevin was past it when he fought Hamed because of his recent history going into the Hamed fight.But Hamed fans(just like you)would tell everyone that would listen otherwise.I NEVER wrote Hamed never accomplished anything,so just try to get your head out of your ass.What I correctly wrote(backed up by pure facts that I noticed that even you haven't tried to dispute opponent by opponent)was that his competition was pretty good at best and that he,and his comp were vastly overrated by his deluded legion of enablers.YOU'RE the one that hasn't addressed head to head any of the points I wrote about Mr. Overrated as you just go off in a different direction by discussing Hamed's financial impact on boxing rather the points I made about his opposition.You're the one that wrote an article called "The Truth About Hamed" and invited people to write down their thoughts on the subject and the article you wrote.You tried to build Hamed's opposition up by writing down the alphabet straps they won,without conveniently mentioning their shortcomings and recent histories before their Hamed fights.Quite typical of a hamed fan.I NEVER completely dismissed Hamed's opponents.I correctly wrote that they were pretty good feathers at best and backed it up by facts.Sorry that the truth hurts so much.And I always wrote that he had impressive power and handspeed and well as interesting balance,so basically the last sentence you wrote in the above contri is just crap.And as far as "wilful ignorance" is concerned,you need to learn how to spell,Mr. Master's Degree,as that's not even the 1st spelling mistake you've made in this thread.

 

Where,just where did anyone ever write he stunk because he's not the greatest of all time?That's just silly statement even as a comparison.Just what is it with that hyperbole?WTF is wrong with you?Beat 9 world champions-maybe so.Just goes to show you how mediocre the division was then as not a single one of them will ever be remotely mentioned on the same level as Marco Antonio Barrera-not even by you while you're trying to build Hamed's resume up.FFS!!!!

 

Good, unbiased, informative article.

 

Prince Naz was unquestionably one of the finest fighters of his generation and a credit to his sport,and,most importantly,his people.


His detractors usually consist of the anti-arab American zionists and the Mexican immigrants that resent the fact that the Hamed family were legal migrants and were able to produce a son that,to this day,is still financially secure.



This pitiful,corrupt,dirty sport that we all follow would be alot less had this great man not graced it.

 

I'm not into these kinds of discussions usually, but it's a nice article, with some good constructive points over the last few pages.

It's a real shame he didn't get back on track, and do a rematch with MAB, as those are the kinds of fights us fans love, rematches are be all and end alls, and we never really had a proper closure with Naz.

I'd love to meet Naz and have an honest conversation with him on his thoughts about the MAB fight.

An excellent fighter, came up short against one of the best in Barrera, I mean, he came up really short, he wasn't troubled, he was just tactically inept that day, with no ability to change his game plan, something I think most observers feel he was capable of.

The rematch would have settled it, sadly, because of that one fight, he'll be regarded as a nearly man by a great number of people who purely look at names on records with no objective views of timelines (something the OP has taken into account though).

 

I NEVER wrote ANY of the things you wrote in the 1st half of your paragraph,lol,so not only is your contri absolute bull****,but you're obviously clueless.You need to reread what I wrote:yep.And the only reason he gets thread after thread written about him on ESB is because his fans that inhabit this space just can't stop themselves.If his fans didn't start the monthly Hamed thread to sing their praises about their classless ****,I would NEVER write a comment about him.I just love writing down the truth about him when his followers delude themselves or deny reality on these boards.

 

Give this man a Masters in Fiction Writing :rofl
