Yeah, Saddler's main strength was his size and physical strength at featherweight, which he used to bully the smaller guys there. Didn't quite translate the same way at 130/135, but I think if he set his mind to it and trained appropriately, he'd still be a terror at 130.

Not the guy to beat Armstrong though... too vulnerable to taking shots and will probably get overwhelmed by the end (though not stopped).
