'Prince' Naseem Hamed vs. Marco Antonio Barrera - Postfight Interview

Hamed was very humble in defeat,he made no excuses like Pacqiao and Freddie Roach when they lost to Erik Morales.They blamed the loss to Erik on the type of gloves he used and then a few years later he said he lost because of a blood sample.My respect to Hamed who said he just got outboxed,no shame in that.

He did make excuse after the fight blaming he had to lose so much weight, but whose fault was that, he got too heavy and too lazy. And Emmanuel Steward his trainer said he had sent tapes of one of Barrera fights in which he fought great in, but Naseem didn’t want to watch those he only watched the fights in which he fought not that well.

raffey8 If you are his "brothers" he must have a large family, including another loser like you in the nest. Plain and simple, Naseem got his muslim ass kicked all over the canvas by a humble Mexican fighter - and a technically superior fighter. Barrera stripped Naseem down completely - exposing his grotesque bravado, arrogance and the ridiculous nature of his embarrassing post-fight absurd "dedication" of his humiliating LOSS to "all muslims." That moment exposed exactly what he was about and what his vile religion is all about - something the entire world now knows with perfect clarity.

[@pachin8591]

The fact that he is Muslim, of course, merits deserved hatred toward him. However, the real reason he is thoroughly hated is because he is an arrogant braggart with little to back it up. Compare him to Barrera. Barrera didn't shoot his mouth off. He did all of his fighting in the ring and he demonstrated that he was a true boxer and he didn't blabber about his religious faith - Catholicism - after the fight, Whereas Naseem shot his mouth off about islam and allah, etc. ad nauseam, and what good did allah do him in the ring?

[@T0mat0S0up]

PaChin Probably because Barrera lacked the cognitive and verbal dexterity Naseem posessed.

[@hopizuni]

It's the other way around. Those who hate Islam because it rightfully deserves such hatred and contempt, also hate "the prince" because he is a muslim. One would think that a person who wears "Islam" on his trunks and blathers about islam after the fight which he lost had better have allah on his side if he is going to win the fight against a "kofar." I guess in this fight, allah had fallen asleep.

[@hopizuni]

T0mat0S0up "Verbal dexterity" simply indicates what we already knew about Naseem - He had a big mouth full of braggadocio and emptiness. However, what makes a boxer, an athlete, a fighter is "physical dexterity," i.e. everything Barrera had to win the fight and everything Naseem lacked.

you talk about shitty opinions? naseem never fought a good fighter until he fought barrera, he lost misserably and retired only at the age of 27.

[@Heskeyali1]

You just reiterated your shitty opinion. If you don't rate him, get off a video dedicated to him you idiot.

[@wenceshen]

wow, i feel realy offended! great fighters come back, like ali, loosers get lost like these guy

[@magnum905]

I'm not a muslim, and enjoyed this fight. VERY MUCH

[@walidalyamani1150]

Nassim is a legend

[@somethindarker]

Phenomenal fighter, personally not my favorite showman but you can't take away his legacy.

[@egyptianspirit2516]

even if u lost u r the prince ever

[@TheIkaraCult]

Naz was class in this interview. I remember thinking he was a prize prick back in the 90s, but he offered up zero excuses here and gave respect to Barrera.

[@alexgibbs356]

Unlike a certain heavy weight who won't take defeat gracefully currently

[@gerryoreilly1922]

there was a return clause in the contract Berrera gave up the belt he won when he seen the clown was afraid to take him on again .berrera knew naz could not punch as hard as the rumours had said and he would not have to be careful at all so when he had him hurt he could go for the ko. unlike the 1st fight in which he was being a little cautious and did not go for the kill when he had naz hurt

[@jwest7369]

But you never came back LOLOLOL

[@richardbettsworth6939]

+Jason West Barerra refused the rematch and Prince had one more fight after this, which he won and then retired due to the injuries he kept sustaining to his hands.

[@adobdebunkology5671]

+Jason West he won the IBO featherweight title from Manuel Calvo before retiring.

[@jwest7369]

+Adob Debunkology My bad man. boxing is hard to follow sometimes.

[@larryburns76]

He blamed allah for the loss said it was written for him,cmon dude Barrera was the reason you loss,he’s just the better boxer

[@aladdinaldilawi7098]

naz is just like tyson, overrated as hell, fought bunch of bums and got exposed as soon as he fought real boxers.

[@kevb6597]

well said

[@malzcuatro3379]

You are totally wrong. I'm not going to argue about Tyson because this is a Naz video, but Naseem was one of the most talented boxers that ever exist. You can see he's not the same fighter against Barrera (physically) than in most other bouts. He didn't like to stay away from his family, and so he start to miss the training.

[@aladdinaldilawi7098]

which top tier fighters did he beat?

[@malzcuatro3379]

Aladdin Aldilawi Jaja, no sé por qué te respondí en inglés, creo que por la costumbre. Mirá, él fue el campeón en su tiempo, y le sacó ventaja holgada a los demás. Claro que justo en esa época no habían peleadores como Pacquiao o Mayweather, y quizás por eso Naz nunca necesitó llevar su condición al máximo. Pero en cuanto talento, yo nunca vi nada igual (excepto quizás Sugar Leonard). Velocidad, defensa, buen puño y buen mentón (lo demostró contra Barrera, que lo golpeó toda la pelea y nunca lo tiró).

[@aladdinaldilawi7098]

sry i dont speak watermelon

[@lewiscifer999]

Did they have a re-match?

[@bigderekkeene]

so......tell us all again about how you returned to knock out Barrera then, Naz. ..........(yawn!)

[@kajiansunnah1990]

Who barrera? He die fight pacciao. He Like punching bag

[@rickrugby10]

anyone know why naz quit and didn't take the rematch? didn't think he could win?

[@deadlydesires1]

he went to jail

[@gerryoreilly1922]

Ash Bisho. It's true all fighters should be judged on their talent. But it was naz who disrespected and belittled other fighters, and was the first to bring religion into the ring by demanding that prayers be said over the microphone system for his father?? This was outrageous imo

[@Islamisthetrueway]

fair enough. Still gotta admit Hamed was one hell of an entertainer if anything and he displayed great sportsmanship taking the loss like a man.

[@goldenboy185]

nope he wasn't best he ducked marquez morales tapia even mayweather

[@Tele302]

golden boy they ducked him in the early 90s and only offered him a fight towards the end of his career.

[@sal4992]

Man, i wished he came back but he never did. Legend.

[@lcastellanos202]

Aladdin go back to Disney you don't know anything about boxing

[@michellea5415]

Hahaha!!! I like that!

[@lcastellanos202]

That's right Marge Babe l showed best highlights of Pernell Whitaker & The Prince Naseem Hameed over today's fighter Amir Khan an Early scared a retired Floyd Mayweather Whitaker an Hameed was better

[@michellea5415]

+Luis Castellanos Lol! I never liked Amir Khan's or Prince Naseem cockiness. I find that Latinos boxers an't so cocky instead they are more down to earth and humble. Even Marco Barrea showed his humble side and so did Canelo when he beat Amir recently.

[@FBC83rd]

@nalon311 17-15 is bad but wats ur record?

[@RazKing7]

hes a true man!

[@tapiaassasin]

The boxing hall of fame doesn't induct fighters based upon talent or accomplishments, as the recent induction of Arturo Gatti has proven. Don't have a fucking clue why any boxing fan would cite it as if it had credibility.

[@ZAzzzzzzaaaaaaaaa]

انت فخر لليمن واليمنين

[@danieldragovic7287]

Floyd would have done to this idiot what he did to Gatti.

[@stanikzaiparviz6099]

naseem hamed is from which country?

[@stanikzaiparviz6099]

+poolehart thanks bro

[@xXCrusher509Xx]

when you be back??

[@maromorostar6621]

But he never came back and got a Barerra rematch, he should have got a rematch, KO him and then retire like a boss.

[@UmarRCz]

😎

[@stevefowler3398]

KO Barerra????? Hahahahaha. Good one!

[@ahmad312]

@BartsBeatz didn't he get into trouble with the law after this??

[@Steve-fy4xh]

Haters will always hate. Naseem was a very good boxer who made a lot of money. He was beaten by a better boxer on the night, but no doubt if he had prepared better it wouldn't have been such a one sided defeat - he may have even won, who knows. As for those haters below making racist, religiously discriminative comments I ask you, why are you even on this forum?? There are plenty of places on the net for your types so make your comments there. Only boxing fans here please as many below are.
