What are some good fights including “Prince” Naseem Hamed?

Many thanks, OH.

Barrera

His fight w Kevin Kelly was my introduction to Hamed. It was a good one while it lasted.

That's his best one by quite a bit.

Good, spicy scrap with the handy Tom Johnson is worth watching with the IBF/WBO titles on the line.
And Kelley for the fireworks, big shots and Naz drama.

The Ingle fight is worth watching too......mainly because Paul nagged away at Hamed, was not mugged-off and he was quality in his own right. Barrera was more dynamic than Paul but maybe got a bit of clue when he watched the tape?

Barrera fight is my favorite. Barrera provided a master-class.

If he fought Barrera 3 or 4 years earlier, Hamed would have probably won. He’d lost interest by 2001 and his hands had gone. Badillo is a good one and his win over Bungu is underated.

He wouldn't have fought Barrera then and he never would have beaten him. Losing interest for your biggest fight by a Mile is as flimsy an excuse as can be offered.

My favorite Naz fight is with Augie Sanchez.

Never really got Hamed. Never seemed to be much more than a hot dog with a good punch. Is this a British thing?
