Definitely, Matthew was one of my favorite fighters when I was young, and saw no downside with boxing. When Matthew was in the ring, you knew you’d be entertained.
Posted this interview before, which summarizes the evilness in boxing. Even if you have been a celebrated star of the sport – when you turn into a has-been, we don’t care about you or your after-the-career life.

It was a great one. Matthew Saad Muhammad gave us quite a few of them. Exciting fighter.Comment

Yaqui was half that fight, lads. Don't forget, he was in some of the greatest fights ever himself, by buggery!Comment

- -The sandwiched middle of the Bob Foster and Mike Spinks era, that may have been the most competitive era in history with most fighting each other multi times, ie actually fighting.
Every fight a rollercoaster of thrills, spills, and blood and guts no quit action.

Awesome fight....and you didn't have to PPV it, or stream it, or buy an app or a cable contract. Those were the days.Comment

This is one of my favorite fights ever. I think Saad is about as exciting as any fighter in history. Possibly Olivares the only one close in terms of consistent exciting.
Lopez was always hell too. So unlucky that he never lifted a title. That was a golden age for the division. Conteh was another fantastic fighter too.Comment
