    That was so bad, it's good.

    Really, Saad is one of the most exciting fighters ever and has a Hollywood type story (but not a Hollywood type ending). For those who don't know, he was abandoned by his family, his mother told his brother to run with him and leave him. He was found on Franklin street, hence his name before Islam.

    He was a thug growing up, became LHW champ of the world, and was his generation's Gatti for exciting fights. Actually, Gatti was his generation's Saad.

    Like many fighters, he had financial problems, and at one point after his career ended, lived in a homeless shelter.
