Eddie Mustafa Muhammad appreciation thread

You sure about that, Mate? You really sure about that one?




Backtracking now are we?

I never denied callling EMM a legend. In my view he is, not as a boxer but as a boxer&trainer. I clearly stated this in the first post.

How many successful title defenses did **** Tiger make at LHW? What about Jose Torres?

Whoooah, to be fair Tiger who was 35/36(?) did run into a certain Mr Foster

Plus he started out as a middleweight. He was a small lighth. at 5'8.

Then again Mustafa Muhammad ran into Michael Spinks.

Yep. I wonder what would happen if Spinks and Saad fought. It's a shame the 4 greatest lhws of that time didn't all fight each other...Qawi fought Spinks and Saad but not Mustafa; Spinks fought Qawi and Mustafa but not Saad; Eddie fought Saad and Spinks but not Qawi and Saad fought Qawi and Eddie but not Spinks.

Not arguing that or putting him down just defending **** Tiger

I always liked Saad though I do think his corner pulled a fast one against Conteh when they filled his cut with what looked like cement!
Style of fighter he was I always thought he would be one of those that would burn out fairly early.
Certainly got your money's worth with him though.

Yep, there was never a dull fight with him around.
