    I'd definitely pick AE. He' d land right hands from a distance all night long.

    I'd probably take Hamed, even though I enjoy watching AE fight more.

    Esparragoza was one helluva offensive technician, but he wasnt all that hard to fight and I did see him hurt.

    Hamed would likely be behind on the cards, then tags Esparragoza with a bomb he doesnt recover from.

    But like I said, i found Esparragoza far more fun to watch from a skills perspective.

    AE is a little too hittable to me... I think he gets caught with some freak shot and gets stopped ...

    Regardless of Espa's defensive faults, I question how well Naz's quirky style would work against a lanky puncher like Espa. I wish we could've seen how well Naz would've fared against the likes of Jr. Jones, JMM, or Erik Morales.

    Yeah, AE was very lanky and rangy, and yes he could punch.

    Thing is, Naz's resume kinda blows AE's away.

    I would have liked to see how AE would have handled McGugian, Fenech, and Nelson.

    I suspect he beats McGugian, but loses to Fenech and Nelson.
