Nothing overhyped about Naseem, he had more natural talent than Broner, if his head was screwed on he would be an ATG, even so he done much more in his career than Broner has achieved so far.

No doubt he's the real deal.

To the nikkaz saying that he gets hit too much. He actually embrasses getting hit and wants guys to come at him to show off his offensive arsenal. If that means getting hit more than usual than so be it.

He's defense is up there. Not on Mayweather's level or even Hopkins but he can slip punches, feint and counter with the best of em.

His ring IQ and natural ability to adjust within a fight is also Mayweather like. I'm looking forward to seeing this guy fight and I don't care about his antics. All that shyt is entertainment and its good for the sport.

:stopitslime:

The only thing I agree with you on here is that Naseem wasn't overhyped but you are overrating the fukk out of him...

All Naseem had was a big left hook and he was swift on his feet...He dominated a weak featherweight division and quit when that division started to get good...

Broner isn't really all that great, just over-hyped. Broner's defense has always been suspect and his reflexes/parrying aren't good, gets hit way too easy, especially when in a defensive shell or moving.

The lightweight division is also weak with sub-par competition which makes Broner seem much better than he is, but to his credit Broner's world class speed and power as a puncher helps him overcome opponents but if he moves up to another weight class or fights a decent counterpuncher with a little speed (Gavin Rees made Broner look sloppy last night, just had no power to do any damage to hurt Broner) and power it's over for Broner.

:salute:

Right on the fukking money

this nikka was smoking crack :laff:

I had meant to put 4th. I had him only behind Floyd and Ward and Rigo as far as just talent went:manny:

He's still a beast though and will be back soon:ufdup:
