I'm sure his tongue was firmly in his cheek when he said that

Be serious!!!
If you didn't see Naz was having his normal fun - he knows people want him back but he knows he is never coming back - but his sense humour says he will wind a few people up - I can't believe there are some people think he would even consider it.
Bless him - he is enjoying his food - he resembles something like a space hopper at present.
Good entertainment - should have him on more shows giving his views!!

He's been talking about it, on and off, since early '04.
He's yet to take off a lb of weight, though.
He will never come back.

He was obviously having a laugh .. got to say he was amusing also
Not sure I could listen too much of him though

:(
Nice little dig from Nelson also .. "not many boxers stay in shape when they leave the Ingle gym, Naz for example...." meowwww

He was clearly only joking.... fair play to him, he was top quality and is now left with the money to enjoy life.
Will we seriously see him in the ring again? Absolutely no chance.

Still may favourite boxer...
F**k me, I just loved watching him, and no boxer has captured the imagination quite like him since.

I would have like to have seen Dave Clark turn the same question that Smith asked Naz to Johnny Nelson... is he serious about having the fire in his belly again?

Say what we like about Naz, he brought excitment to British Boxing big time in the mid to late 90's
He's still got that spark which he showed in the interview tonight, it was great to see him enjoy his pal win the British title again. I had many a good night watching Naz

Boy i forgot that Naz was the fuckin shit!!!!

That's a good video. It's a bit sad how Naz became a reclusive hate figure who couldn't cope with defeat, all his own doing of course.

Good watch all those, I watched Naz from back in the ITV days, he was Ingles masterpiece. Look how he handled Belcastro for the European title at only 18 years old in his 12th pro fight, he was a very natural talent of a fighter who bamboozled fighters with the Ingle style.

Exactly - people in pubs stopped talking and watched when Naz was on. I had some cracking nights both when he fought in the UK and when he took the show on the road - the Kelly fight in 97 was the best night of all. An absolute thriller and I remember being totally off my tits on a pre-Xmas binge. Happy days.

Thats it Goz

......loads of people watched him who never followed Boxing, he brought drama and excitment and showmanship in Boxing again in Britain. I used to have some cracking gatherings here to watch the Naz fights
