    At 175, how does this fight go? How tough is he of an opponent for Charles?

    I liked Mathew Saad Muhammad/Matthew Franklin as a fighter, but he would not match up well with Ezzard Charles, who had far more all-around ability and skills than Saad.

    Why does everyone seem to hate Saad??? Why Patterson or Ezzard....no I don’t see him winning this or being very competitive as much as I like him
