    I know after the Qawi fights he lost it pretty fast and hard, but was there ever a window when this was discussed?

    Yes it would have happened if Saad hadn't lost to Braxton/Qawi.

    They were even keeping it somewhat aligned in the shadows of the Qawi - Saad rematch hoping like hell Saad won as it was a fight people really wanted to see.
