Qawi of Piet Crous fight vs. Jones of Ruiz fight (Not gonna make a LHW thread since that's been done already)
That's too bad because I really think Qawi was a much better LHW than CW. With that said, Jones' speed advantage would be lessened by the weight gain and I'd view Qawi as a very game challenger in this particular matchup. RJJ wins by UD but he gets roughed up in the process.
Only two fighters stopped Qawi... Holyfield (KO4 in the rematch) and Foreman (KO7 at HW). No way does Jones stop him! Qawi went 15 tough rounds with a prime LHW Spinks and won 6 rounds. Qawi went 15 rounds with an undefeated CW Holyfield and lost by split-decision. He beat James Scott W10, Matthew Saad Muhammad KO10 and KO6, Eddie Davis KO11, Piet Crous KO11, Leon Spinks KO6, Lee Roy Murphy KO6, and Tyrone Booze W10 among others. He had some very close losses while past prime to the likes of Ossie Ocasio LMD10 and Robert Daniels LSD12 .
