    The only thing hard to pick is whether or not Jake lasts the distance. Saad woulda beat the **** outta him.

    Saad is the sharper puncher, bigger hitter, and had a high punch output down the stretch. Lamotta would always make it competitive and would stun Saad at some point but I think Saad cones on strong late to stop Lamotta on his feet, with his back to the ropes.

    LOL. This looks like a bad matchup for Lamotta. Saad was an awesome offensive fighter. I see jab, righthand, left hook landing on Lamotta all day.

    LaMotta goes the distance with anyone in a 1,000 round fight.

    This is pretty much how I see it. Saad's harder punching would make the difference.

    This would probably look very much like Saad's fight with Jerry "the Bull" Martin - Saad initially being backed up to the ropes and suffocated with pressure, but saad could box and like with Martin, come the mid rounds Saad is Backing off and shooting a hard left Jab and left hook, The trouble for Jake, Like Martin, is that When Saad has mapped Jakes Aggression, and is Creating the space he needs by Backing Off, Saad will at some stage Start to Bowl over that Smashing right hand Clever of a punch, and it would not surprise me if it is an exact replica Combo that finished Lotte Mwale that does for Jake, A downward arching right hand and a humongous Left uppercut, Jake's durability was something special, but so was this combination if Saad Landed it on target, If Jake was not streched out like Lotte, I would certainly expect him to be ***** st, with the Ref jumping in before Saad can land anothe Hammer Blow on a now open target, Knowing Saad's Slow amble to top gear it could be circa 9th round before Saad finds these terminatrion shots. Not an ounce of disgrace to Jake and his durability.

    lamotta gets caught all night with combo's ,he is in the fight up until the 9th or 10th but saad's punches take effect in the rounds after the 10th and he storms to a ud

    No contest!
    Lamotta had enough trouble beating middleweights.
    Saad would have killed him!
