15 Rounds Light Heavyweight Bout

Either Fitz outboxes Qawi behind his jabs and counterpunches on the body and head to take a decision or would Qawi buzzsaw Fitz down with his own punches on the body and head to take a decision or stopping "Rudy" Bob late. What do you guys think and who do you got?

To be honest, it's tough for me to predict fights, when respective eras between the two proposed fighters are so far apart. Boxing as a whole (technique and etc.) was completely different back in Fitzsimmons times.

P4P-wise, Fitzsimmons was greater than Qawi. That said, Qawi could've beaten Fitz had they fought. Dwight's technique was more advanced (again, not the least because of the era, during which he has fought).

It's definitely an interesting fight, but I'm struggling to break it down due to above reasons.
