Johnson height 5′ 10″ reach 74″ Qawi height 5′ 7″ / 170cm reach 71″ Johnson beat Archie Moore once out of 5 fights, beat an old Ezzard Charles, beat Nino Valdes, went 2/3 over Bob Satterfield, beat Henry Hank, beat Doug Jones & Eddie Cotton, and tangled with and beat decent 50's heavyweights such as Eddie Machen. Qawi was a true bad bass who beat up Saad twice, and barely lost to Holyfield at cruiserwt. Going with Harold Johnson by SD over Qawi.
Harold Johnson by decision. He was technically close to perfection in the ring. Not exciting but effective. I think he outboxes Qawi.
I can see Harold Johnson doing the same work that Spinks did against Qawi. Johnson's jab helps him control Qawi and win a decision.
M. Spinks is 4-1/2 " taller that H.Johnson, with a slightly longer reach. height 6′ 2½″ reach 76″ Saad was more H. Johnson's size. height 5′ 11″ reach 75″ Qwai vs Holyfield I: The Ring Magazine named Holyfield vs. Qawi I the best cruiserweight fight of the 1980s. The Ring Magazine ranked the fight as the 46th greatest title fight of all-time in 1996.
Camden over Philly for about the only time I will write those words. I like Qawi to take a close decision or a 2-1 split over a trilogy.
Braxton had trouble with boxers who had good lateral movement in Eddie Davis and Spinks. Johnson too fluid and wins pts.
