    Is Dwight Muhammad Quawi one of the best defensive Boxers of all time ?

    I haven’t seen too many boxers that have a highlight defensive tape as good as his. His reflexes are phenomenal his he actually top 10 best defensive boxers of all time?

    Good defensive fighter but not top 10 all time.

      One of my favorite all time fighters, his defense set up his offense, at only 5’6 he had to get in close to land his shots

      While he was hard to hit clean, especially at light heavyweight, defense wasn’t his priority

      His priority was to get in close and to counter off of his opponents missing the mark

      I remember when ESPN was still new and they held a light heavyweight tournament and Dwight came from nowhere to win it

      But his fight against ex-champion Mike Rossman was an absolute masterpiece, that’s when he was still up and coming and took training seriously

      While I am much taller our proportions are the same, my reach is 17 cm longer than my height like Dwight and Lennox Lewis

          He did well with what he had to work with.
