    Hamed was more gooder than people want to remember, at least for the first few years of his reign. That's my opinion and what i think about that thing.

    Hamed by late stoppage.

    I think John outboxes him and wins a clear decision.

    John is still one of the most underrated fighters in the sport.

    Agreed. Hamed became crazy overrated when he was fighting and has gone the exact opposite way since he retired and got fat.

    IMO Hamed circa 97, 98 is right on the Barrera/Morales level. That's my opinion and what I feel about that in my heart, baby yeah. Always and forever in my heart and soul, me and you together til the break of dawn.

    Near-even proposition, for mine. I would fancy Hamed to find the right angle to set John down the path to perdition at some point, but would not be surprised at all to find John out-pointing him & winning a decision. Hamed could be discouraged at times.

    I see it the same way. I think it's one of those fights where even Hamed haters would be cheering for him after some rounds had passed just for something exciting to happen.

    Hamed would have a very significant height disadvantage in this fight.

    Hamed late stoppage, down on the cards after being outboxed.

    John likes to trade at times and against Hamed that will be his mistake.

    Prince gradually catches up to him and eventually unleashes some damaging shots on him to force a stoppage in the mid late rounds.
