Dwight Qawi VS Bob Foster

Post by Scypion »

Two Light Heavyweight Champions from slightly different eras. Who was better? Who wins?

Visions of Foster vs Dick Tiger.

Qawi, like Tiger was a rugged, tough, inside fighter and a solid puncher with a good chin, but Foster had such leverage and dynamite, I would have to go for him and probably by KO inside 8.

Qawi was a beast at 175, with excellent head movement, a surprisingly efective jab, ferocious body punching ability, and lots of stamina. No one Foster beat at 175 is even close to the Camden Buzzsaw. I think he'd gradually wear Foster down with a steady body attack and then finish him off around the 12th or 13th.

I agree with you 100 % about Qawi being better than anyone Foster defeated. However, this bout is an exception for me in that I'm backing the guy with the weaker resume to win. Foster on points.

Qawi by KO or TKO.

BTW, Tiger was almost 39 when he fought Foster. 39 is only good for Jack Benny.

Foster would stick his long left jabs on Qawi's face without giving him space and landing long left-right combos to take a decision in 15 rounds.

I think Bob has enough offense to keep Dwight at bay. In a highly competitive fight, Bob wins a UD.

Dwight Muhammad Qawi was way much stronger and durable at 175lbs than the great Dick Tiger
