I mean in that era you had Michael Spinks, John Conteh, Marvin Johnson, Matthew Saad Muhammad, Dwight Muhammad Qawi, Eddie Mustafa Muhammad, Victor Galindez, Bob Foster, ETC.

So many great fights and so many great fighters, its almost laughable compared to what we got today.
Agreed. Imagine what some of these guys would have done with a prime Matthew Saad Muhammed. A guy you could swing a bag of bricks into and he'd still keep coming at you. As Tony said in Rocky II to Apollo, "You beat that man like I never seen you beat a man before and he kept coming after you.." Sounds like a 1979-81 version of Saad.
