    Obviously, no one gets stopped here. At 175, Qawi wins a decision.

    toney was too tough and smart, would counter punch the very good qawi to death, wait for 4 clowns mentioning toney vs tiberi as evidence of anything

    Light heavy wasn't happy hunting ground for Toney. Losses to Griffin and was it Drake Thadzi? He fared better than Qawi higher up the weights even though he started out lower but this weight just coincided with a dip. Qawi, the lesser fighter overall, UD.

    Qawi is one helluva fighter at 175.

    In reality Toney beat Griffin twice. He was not in shape against Thadzi. I agree with Quawi winning though.

    Seconded except for Qwai winning. Anything he did on the inside Toney did just a shade better.

    That explains why you picked Toney.

    Dwight was a machine in his 175 lb prime.

    He could punch at a high output for as long as it took.

    The same could not be said for Toney.

    Neither guy would take much punishment as they both had good defense, but Dwight would throw many more shots.

    Toney was best countering, but Dwight could defend Toney's counters.

    Toney was outworked several times (Tiberi, Thadzi) and he would be again here.
