My dad never forgot to wakeup all of us to watch every fight of Zuzu. Champ you do all and we love. You gave us much love and pride at the international front
Azumah Nelson...World Class Champion Never Disrespected His Opponents That’s What A Champion Supposed Be...No Need For Trash Talk’in Azumah Will Always Be One Of My Fav’s
Loved all of the Professors fights, from Sanchez, Villasana, Gomez, Fenech, Azabache, Whitaker, Gabe Ruelas , Leija, all such wonderful fights.
Azuhmah Nelson was without a doubt one of the greats.
I remember the headline on the cover of the esteemed british Boxing News after he thrashed Ruelas.'Father Time!'
@cyril laymanYeah Sanchez is rightly revered as one of the top 5 featherweights of all time.But Azumah gave him absolute hell and in only his 14th fight.
@cyril layman I'd be interested to gear your thoughts concerning their respective performances against Pat Cowdell? (his manager's brother was our family butcher lol)
@@tintomara6209 Not only that but he was 17 and took the fight on 2 weeks notice
Nelson was so strong for his size. Very good puncher.
God bless you Professor Azumah,you absolute living legend!
I just subscribed. The true professor indeed
It's a father and son affaires lol We love you Prof
There will never be another fighter like Azumaah Nelson. Professor Fada N Son Barima Zoomzoom the Terrible Terror, we will ALWAYS LOVE YOU. In your heyday, you made us proud to be Ghanaian.
Very confident Man
well done that they finally overturned that decision from the first fight where Fenech won by a mile finally some common sense
Azumah Nelson was good, no, great fighter. Very difficult to beat him.
Jeff fenech beat him fair and square
In 1991
I want to be a boxer, how can I meet the legend
Azumah
mad inspirational
great champion warrior
He dropped a couple of notchess in greatness, when he started to give excuses and not admit that he was well and clearly beaten by sanchez. Bad loser, He may tell all those stories about how great he was , but he will always have the nightmare that he was legitimate beaten by one who was much greater than him.
He never want to comment about salvador because it hurts him!
He literally lists Sanchez 2nd mate haha
El no reconoce que sanchez fue mejor azuma es el profesor entonces Sanchez que sería
Accra Ghana
Salvador Sanchez
Remember Azumah took the fight last minute, imagine what would have happened in a rematch? Rematches are Azumahs forte! 🥊
@@TheBlackcular the same history . Sanchez champion. Imagine what would happen not exist
Azumah gave him a hell of a fight with just 2 weeks preparation and virtually no professional record!
At the very end Jeff does get back up too quick but that's the only way a tough guy with his stones knows to be
All-time great who proved himself in the rematch here, but he should just admit he lost the first fight... I had it 10-2 or if I'm looking for Nelson' rounds, 9-3... but a draw............are you kidding me! That has to be taken into consideration as Jef Fenech was never again Jeff Fenech... and at very least he should've been history's first *undefeated* four weight class champion......he earned that. How good was he? Consider this---when he was ranked as a junior lightweight for the first Nelson fight, Villasana was a featherweight champ, Zaragoza was a junior-featherweight champ, and Greg Richardson was a 118, bantamweight champion. Fenech had already beat all three... not bad. But again, Nelson proved the matter with Fenech in rematch as he usually did.
He had a lot of decisions go his way which shouldn't have.
A lot of decisions should not of went his way ? Please name all of these fights you`re referring to.
Sad, he never gave Sanchez the due credit, always saying that he had no preparation for that fight, the truth is he was good but Sanchez was better and thats it
Of course he gave Sanchez credit. He said back then Sanchez was a great champion and the only one willing to give him a rematch. Both Azumah and Sanchez were ahead of their time.
He stopped being a great fighter to transform into a zombie…..
Was a great fighter,, but Salvador Sánchez was better
Azumah gave him a hell of a fight with just 2 weeks preparation and virtually no professional record!
Really ? Like when he knocked out Ruelas when Nelson was 37 years old and Leija was he was 38 then went a split decision with Hernandez at 39 ? 🙄
