    Wayne McCullough on Morales and Prince Naseem

    Iron chinned wayne McCullough, former bantamweight champion of the world discussed his top 5 fights of all time. He reviewed his fights with both Hamed and Morales. He said that Naz did not have the one punch ko power and ran from him the whole fight. He said Morales had that one punch ko power and he knew fighting him that he was the real deal and would be a world champ oneday. im sure this will ruffle some feathers, any thoughts???

    Hmmm I believe Naseem had the one punch power but he was correct about Morales.

      If anything I think Hamed had better "one punch" ko power than Morales. Suprised to hear him say that, but he's been in with both so I guess he knows better than we do?

      Also, he had an interesting talk about the Larios fight. I totally agreed that the fight should have been stopped as Wayne was taking massive head shots and his own punches had no snap whatsover to do any damage on Larios. But when the fight was getting stopped and he began to weep and plead his case, that was a touching moment.

        I remember reading that Wayne said Naseem was stronger strength wise but that Morales hit harder and that he remembers when they fought he got hit and he was like damn.

        Also when wayne fought Morales he had just turned 23 but he was already WBC Super Bantamweight champ (when he beat Zaragoza), and had defended it successfully 7 times against among his defenses, Angel Chacon, and Junior Jones.

          Morales had very heacy hands at 122. I don't know about him having more 1 punch power than Hamed, but I think McCullough would know more about this than any of us.

            You really have to watch the fights Naz had before McCullough and the fights he had after McCullough, and of course the Wayne McCullough fight itself to understand why he said that. Also if you ever get the chance to watch a Naz documentary, take it, because they usually give a great insight into the fights etc.

            But I will say that, at the time of the McCullough fight, Naz had been in major money disputes with his trainer and promotor. If you watch the McCullough fight you will see that Brendan is saying stuff like "use the uppercut this round/use the jab this round" and Naz does none of it. He completely defies everything that his trainer says, and you can see that he could knock McCullough out at any given point, but he really didnt try. Honestly if you dont believe what i am saying, like I said, watch the fights before it and then watch that one and you will know what I mean.

            Also I would just like to say that Naz dominated that fight on the scorecards.... McCullough had no chance and was getting stressed the way he was being completely ****ing dominated. Not one round stood out to me as a McCullough round in that fight...

              also just remembering the UK version of the McCullough - Morales fight the first thing wayne said when he got interviewed was,

              he hit hard, (before being asked who hit harder).

                People have forgotten what a beast Morales was at 122lbs he's arguably the best of all time at 122. Imagine Tommy Hearns with an iron chin and that was Morales, Tall, Lanky a master boxer with one of the biggest right hands you'll ever see.

                    No, Morales won the fight at 122, lost the fight at 126, and got robbed at 130.
