Barry McGuigan v 'Prince' Naseem Hamed

[ThePlugInBabies]

at featherweight, who takes it? will be interested to hear peoples opinions on barry mcguigan, and how he'd stand up to a deadly puncher like naz.

[FlatNose]

Mcguigen was pretty well schooled and technical, and Naz swung bombs with his chin in the air.But Naz beat some tough dudes like Kevin Kelly and Tom Johnson that were better all around fighters than Mcguigen.Still, with The Princes' power it was never over until it was over.Then Barraera spanked Hamed, and it WAS over.Similarly Mcguigen went out with a wimper as well , losing to a plumbers apprentice , Stevie Cruz.I'd go with Mcguigen, I guess.

Naz's style would be all wrong for McGuigan....

Naz TKO10

[AREA 53]

Naz didnt look too happy when under pressure from Paul Ingle, for a pressure fighter Barry was not the easy targe that he might have appeared in the cruz fight, at his best (and not in a desert climate) he was a constantly moving dynamo building in momentum, Naz may keep barry occupied with his movement and Jab Early, but like Barry displayed against the BT Express, - there aint no Brakes on Barry's Train ! once he starts to reach Naz's body with those bodyshots naz's silly grins will not keep him off, Making Naz move and Work three minutes of each round, i think Barry can pull of a Stoppage circa 10th
- And Naz's ego many be a contribtory factor, he may feel that he does not have to take Barry seriously as a threat, and that his wild power shots will get him out of Jail...but not when he is fatiqued it wont, if Barry gets the complete upper hand he will not surrender the innitive, he will build on it.
