What do you think about the talented but flawed BOXER "Prince Naseem Hamed" career?

Question

Great?, The Worst?, Special?, One-hit Wonder?...etc. Whats your take?

Answer 1

Great showman but not a great boxer, as soon as he came up against a great boxer he got took to school, far too cocky for his own good and this came back to haunt him i truly think he believed he couldnt be beat and it didnt help with the likes of Manny Steward telling him he was the best Featherweight in the world when his style was flawed he visited the canvas that many times against fighters who were just above average he was always going to come a cropper against a fighter that did have a decent knowledge of boxing.

Answer 2

No defense and thinks that he can knockout everyone.

Answer 3

he was a total tube.showed no respect for any fighter,even the great MAB who wiped the floor with the bum and showed him his level was fighting other bums and has beens.to say he would be great if he got a rematch or had a better performance is utter rubbish.that was his best performance and thats the reason he only fought once more and then quit as he had been found out as the deluded egomanic one dimensional clown that he was.

Answer 4

naseem had a very good career. he was very talented, but at the same time he gets hit (but not hurt). he would have been a greater fighter if he had a rematch against barrera, or at least had a better performance. he should've fought more after, and try to make up for that big lost. but im still a big fan, because he such a good entertainer in and outside of the ring. reminds me of mayorga.

Answer 5

Definitely a one hit wonder,he was more qualified to be in a circus than in a boxing ring.

Barrera exposed him for the bum he really was and retired him for good....... hurray !!!
