Why did Prince Naseem Hamed retire?

Yeah and should have been Dqed as well. He was very lucky in doing that ****. MAB was one of the dirtiest fighters of his era. I laugh my ass off everytime I see Pac or Junior Jones beating his ass.

 

Interesting. Do you think Calzaghe should have been DQ'd then for his crass and cringeworthy mock-humping of Hopkins?

 

I agree MAB is one dirty s.o.b. But that **** was funny. He took Naz from one corner of the ring and jammed his head to the opposite corner.

 

he lost confidence in his abilities,the Barrera loss showed him that he wasnt as good as he tought he was.and in the Calvo fight it showed he didnt have the same believe in himself he used to have and he looked average against a guy that wouldnt last three rounds against the Naz of old.

 

:rofl:rofl but true

 

Erm, dancing and clowning is not the same as throwing somebody into a ring post.

Roy Jones or Pernell Whitaker would be struggling.

 

I couldnt agree more, when boxers make too much money or achieve a peak they lose the hunger for recognition.

Ali was never the same after Foreman, SRR was never the same after Hagler, RJJ didnt have **** after Ruiz. Its hard to force your body through incredible amounts of pain when you simply dont feel you have to do it anymore. Especially when you feel (rightly or not) that you have nothing left to prove.

 

In what fight did you see Whitaker mock-hump someone? :?

 

No that didn't do any damage and was funny. MAB could have injured Nas in that fight by doing that.

 

isnt that an Hagler quote?


Naz didnt do roadwork anyway.

 

I don't think there is a clear distinction in the rule book between dancing around and pretending to hump somebody. Ugly and wrong looking it may be, DQ worthy it certainly ain't. It doesn't physically effect proceedings.

Throwing people into a ring post however...
