Thanks for posting this, Matthew Saad Muhammad, I remember him beating John Conteh. Its sad to see this interview but he was one of the most inspirational fighters to me and many.
Saad Muhammad talks a lot better than one would expect. That guy took some serious ass-kickins in the fights he WON. And how 'bout Joltin' Jeff Chandler? Too bad he and Lupe Pintor never settled who the best was at bantamweight back in the early 80s.
i was a MSM fan. Great boxer. Nice guy. His problems were similar to when a guard would try and play like a center and vice versa; Saad would try and become an inside fighter. These lapses hurt him. Great career though, a true champion.
I thought Saad sounded better than Chandler. Surprising, since Saad ate way more punches. Hewas a great fighter. Him vs. Michael Spinks in 1980 or 1981 would have been a great fight.
the common slur from retired boxers but granted the kind of bone shattering wars he was in, he don't sound too bad. least he's audible and understandable, wanna see someone in bad shape listen to Bobby Chacon speak.
R.I.P. Champ..🥊🥊Class act all the way!! Sparred with him back in 1979.."Saad" had some power, for sure!! GOD BLESS YOUR FAMILY..🙏🙏

i love hearing the greats but its heart breaking to hearing them stumble on their words.
