How does this fight play out?

Saad gets hit too often, too early in a fight for me to back him in this one. His comeback and recuperative skills would be severely tested by arguably this biggest puncher in the division's history.

I think the ref saves Saad after 6-7 rounds...

I rate Foster higher then Saad, but in this match I see Foster being counted out around the 9th round.

I think Saad stops Foster late, Bob never had anything this tough, or good, in front of him. Tiger is his greatest moment and that showed he had the power to hurt anyone. But at Light Heavy Dick had nowhere near the power that Saad did.

Bob had a reign comparable to Roy Jones. Great talent, but overrated by the masses to me.

Interesting comparison, given both fighters' forays into the Heavyweight division.

Foster could also box and use his size effectively. Most likely scenario is Foster via a wide decision. Second most likely would be Foster by a late stoppage.

I gotta go with you on this one. I don't think that a heavyweight could stop Matthew Saad Muhammad. But I could see Foster outboxing him.
