Matthew Saad Muhammad vs Dwight Muhammad Qawi

[Dark Lord Al]

Matt Franklin had power and tons of heart but Dwight Braxton was just a bad style for him , Dwight was durable ( went the distance with Spinks ) had a good work rate and was a buzzsaw of a pressure fighter. Just a bad style for Franklin.
Were great fights for sure.

[No Contest]

I think those fights against Qawi took a lot out of Saad Muhammad, look at his record after the second fight, he goes on to lose about half of his remaining fights, against not the greatest fighters. I think he was definately in his prime going into the first fight. Qawi just hit too hard, he was like a smaller version of Joe Frazier. Saad Muhammad was the kind to take 2 to give one and that would never work against Qawi.
