Sad to hear this. What an all-action fighter he was.

RIP champ. As a kid I remember reading the results of his fights against Holyfield in my local newspaper. I later got to watch his fights vs Saad Muhammad and Holyfield years later on ESPN classic.

Entertaining fighter with an exciting style. There will only be one Camden Buzzsaw.

I was fortunate enough to see his fight with Holyfield live. As a kid, I actually thought he had won. It was a great display of both men's peak. Made me sad to hear this, made me even sadder to know it was dementia that took him.

Excellent statement from his sister. Sounds like the champs fighting spirit is alive and well through his family.

As a kid I absolutely loved Mathew Saad and could not forgive Qawi and his menacing attack on Mathew. But I am so glad Mathew was finally reunited with his family. Mathew stole my heart like no other fighter has ever done, or ever will. Not even close.
