Naz says if he comes back, it'll be as lightweight!

[Shizzle]

Big interview on Friday Fight Night, and Naz was saying that were he ever to come back and be 100% into it, he'd fight as Lightweight!

2009 showdown with Amir Khan perchance? It's a trainwreck I'd pay a lot of money to see!

[Primadonna Kool]

Naz..

[hitman_hatton1]

won't happen.

decent interview.

probably the first time he's actually given some sort of explanation for walking away.

said he felt for ricky hatton as well. :|

[skellington]

C'mon Naz!
I'd love to see him back.
He's not that fat.

[Claypole]

Lightweight? Who is he trying to kid? Seriously, to lose that amount of weight and then try to fight has to have some medical risks. An exhibition bout with Danny Williams would be a more sensible bet.

thats me brother...yup...lucky for sure..

[Fat Joe]

thats me brother...yup...lucky for sure..

Did you shake his hand? I've been told they are like little girls hands, which is quite ironic as he is one of the best ever boxers.

[doug.ie]

i've never shaken a little girls hands...


but...i'll say this...and it was a surprise for me...he told me that donny lalonde was his toughest fight !!..

:good I'll check that out tomorrow

[Akxtinguish]

He's still so deeply in love with himself.

And I can't believe he (out of all people) has the cheek to condemn PBF for his attitude.

[ghostlybadge]

weight is not an issue. im big coz i want to be big.

[dan-b]

Great interview. It's easy to criticise Naz but he was a unique phenomenon in the sport, the like of which we might not see again.

Oh we'll see some more for sure. It takes one guy to set the trend.

But yeah, he was a pioneer.

[GazOC]

Never heard of him

Well you lose ESB credibility points for that...;)

[brown bomber]

gr8 interview.... Naz was a ledge and was the most talented fighter ever from the unikizzle.

[Fat Joe]

Well you lose ESB credibility points for that...;)

Just shows how young I am:D

[robpalmer135]

hes is right about mayweather in both ways. Mayweather is so under rated by people its unreal. Hammed was class.

[dan-b]

Mayweather is so under rated by people its unreal.

A lot of that stems from the fact he's not prepared to get his head beaten off & is, apparently, avoiding Cotto.

[Akxtinguish]

Well you lose ESB credibility points for that...

Just shows how young I am

So you don't know Cassius Clay either?

[scurlaruntings]

Charisma is what makes us watch boxing. Naz had a mouth but he had the goods to back it up. I dont see any problem at all with him launching a comeback. Boxing is in his blood and his still relatively young. If anything he`ll bring more exposure to boxing again which is always good.

[GazOC]

Ain't gonna happen mate....

[Fat Joe]

So you don't know Cassius Clay either?

Isn't he some bum Muhammad Ali fought once?

[Benjiabc]

Lightweight? Who is he trying to kid? Seriously, to lose that amount of weight and then try to fight has to have some medical risks. An exhibition bout with Danny Williams would be a more sensible bet.


lol :rofl :rofl :rofl

[mike464]

How big would Naz Vs Khan be?! Naz would probably still have that punch so the chances are ****** would not let it happen.

[mike464]

Isn't he some bum Muhammad Ali fought once?Twice actually. He knocked him out in the first round in the rematch.

[Fat Joe]

So you don't know Cassius Clay either?

Of course. But I think I'm right in stating that Donny Lalonde isn't one of the most recognisble names or faces of the last century. I can't remember seeing footage of him appearing on Michael Parkinson's show.

[Gneus7]

hes is right about mayweather in both ways. Mayweather is so under rated by people its unreal. Hammed was class.

under-rated? :huh

[Akxtinguish]

So you don't know Cassius Clay either?

Isn't he some bum Muhammad Ali fought once?

Well, he wasn't a bum.

[Beeston Brawler]

I suppose Naz will think that if Hatton can lose three stone and fight, why can't I?

[Bomber_uk]

I live in South Yorks and Naz used to make my skin crawl with some of his self hype, but, to be fair he had the tools to back his mouth up and I would love to see him launch a comeback. He said in the interview something along the lines of " I used to be embarrased myself at some of the things I used to say ", this really stunned me ( I am a bit naive :roll: ) because at the time he looked like he believed everything he said about himself. In fairness though he gave us some classic times during his reign, he used to completely dismiss his opposition and future opponents with so much arrognace it was unreal :rofl
