Canelo Alvarez(2017) vs Dwight Muhammad Qawi (1981)

[Tatabanya]

A lot of people don’t know or remember that DMQ fought George Foreman tough. I have mad respect for “The Camden Buzzsaw”.
I think George came in very light for that fight. After that he said he’d never come in that light again.

They also forget how Qawi was robbed in the first Holyfield fight.

After almost going to hell for dehydration in that fight, Holyfield - then a slim cruiserweight - decided that the time had come for Evan Fields to take his place.

Holyfield lost 17lbs during that fight, I remember reading an interview where Evander thought about quitting and something snapped his mind out of it, but said he was so close to tossing it in, survival instincts touch them all if pushed hard enough.

Look at all the biased bruthas in this thread picking the brutha lol what a surprise.

Lame ass **** qawi was a bum nothing special. Canelo beats his ugly ass...Nuff said.

Now you racist bruthas can carry on with you're BS. Smh

[garfios]

Yep doesn't mean he belongs there, only means he beat those particular opponents, Manny and Floyd made a career out of it and its a tall order to suggest they could beat natural full blown all time great WWs, at 130/140 they are in any conversation with anyone.

I believe this to be true, When all things are equal the bigger man will win.

canelo copied fraud and manny. Remember back then they have same day weight in. I have seen canelo closer to lhw, fighting a 160.

If its the DMQ whonfought Evan Fields,he steamrolls and knocks the freckles off ginger

They are close in height but in no way are they similar in build and stature.

Canelo is very stocky for a boxer but Qawi is a whole other level of stocky and with an engine that kept going. He makes Canelo look thin.

Truth be told he would outwork and outmuscle Canelo badly and very likely stop him off of straight volume and exhaustion.

Canelo would be looking like this, except he wouldn't have the stamina or speed to even attempt tripling up the hook like Leon did.

Once again are you old enough to remember Qawi? Qawi had a chin and can punch nonstop for 12 or 15 rounds. Qawi would KO Canelo.

No I'm not old, wrinkled and balding, but I watch old fights. This thread was made in response to some posters here saying that Canelo beats Ezzard Charles. See below for a laugh.
