His style has so much contrast to a normal boxer that it is amazing to me that he has had the success he has. He knows how to do it and it works. However, I think he would have his hands full making it work against a young lion with the speed, power, and chin of Morrales. Morrales is by the book and is extremley talented. If Hamed can beat him, then he is perhaps the most amazing figure in boxing.
Most boxing observers say the middleweight division is flat.
It is true to a point, but only because the best 2 fighters in the division in the last 5 years have not fought. Joppy and Hopkins have cleaned out the division but have not been close to crossing each others paths. This would be a very good fight between two very good fighters. This is a fight that needs to be made because of the action it presents. I cannot imagine another fight that brings as much pure action to the table.
