1979 vs. 2011

Saad obviously never fought anyone fast or with sufficient strength on the inside then.

Jimjom makes a good point though

Saad would flat out murder Ward, with a Darnell Boone-esque peach of a shot. This kid is not infallible and Franklin is one if the greatest Light Heavyweights of all time. Come off it

 

Holmes wins easily. Wide UD or late TKO
Saad Muhammed by KO around 10. while being behind on points
Martinez comfortable UD 11-4, 10-5
Mayweather UD 9-6
JMM UD 9-6
Danny Lopez by KO, maybe even pretty early. Gamboa gets hit way too much for such a puncher. As Rios will demonstrate this year.
Pintor late KO or Donaire on points. 50-50 fight for me
Canto wide UD.

 

Yea but both are murderous punchers and I see Gamboa landing first 99/100 times. Gamboa if defensively wary I think wouldn't ship as many punches

 

Considering the punishment Lopez could soak up and the fact that (aesthetically) he looks the more murderous hitter, I reckon it's a 50-50 fight.
