ESPN transfer portal news: My last day on the NBA team was yesterday. It was a great three years learning from the best. I've been promoted to lead the combat sports team and I'm excited to dive back into the world of boxing, MMA and wrestling. 🥊

Still on cloud nine after my induction into the National Boxing Hall of Fame Class of 2024. It’s impossible to thank everyone who has influenced my career, but know that I am grateful to my family, friends, colleagues, mentors & fighters who inspire me to be better every day!

When I was laid off in January, I had no idea what was next for me. There was an overwhelming amount of support that I didn’t anticipate from people I knew and those I weren’t aware knew of me.
You all said I’d land on my feet.
I did at @espn
Thank you.

Was the first PPV event I ever worked. TVKO, Pay-Per-View from HBO. Started off bad for Hamed during his ring entrance when someone threw a drink at him as he was flying down.
23 yrs ago April 7: Marco Antonio Barrera outpoints “Prince” Naseem Hamed over 12, 126lbs, @MGMGrand, LV. In one of the great performances of the decade, brawler Barrera turns boxer & befuddles undefeated favorite Hamed with superb jab & skills, ruining Prince’s Las Vegas debut.
