Adonis Stevenson vs Dwight Muhammad Qawi @175lbs

Qawi hands down. Stevenson was a heavy hitter but he would be in with guy that had no ****s to give about his power. If Spinks, Saad and Holyfield (at 190) couldn't hurt him, than I don't see Stevenson getting it done. Aside from having an iron chin, Qawi had exceptional defense and stamina unlike Stevenson.

 

Qawi wins. But the 2013 Adonis who was on a super hot streak would make it a good fight

 

Qawi was one tough SOB. I don't see how one-dimensional Adonis is able to keep Qawi at bay. I see Dwight overwhelming Stevenson, wearing him down and stopping him around the 9th rd.

 

Stevenson hasn't a prayer.

 

No he wouldn't.

Qawi would go through any version of Stevenson, EXTREMELY easily.

Qawi ain't Tavoris Cloud.

It would be a totally one sided mugging.

 

Thanks for your opinion, Chief.

 

Stevenson would be put in a meat grinder. No way he would see the last bell. Stevenson would either quit or his corner throw in the towel.

 

The thing is that straight left-hand was thrown like a missle and it was thrown FAST and from a southpaw stance.
And it was a legitimate one punch power shot.
I'd make Stevenson a live underdog for the first 3/4 rounds. After that he almost has 0 chance and would get stopped.
The problem for Dwight is I Don't think he ever fought a southpaw that throws that left-hand that powerful or fast so he would have to adjust.

 

Stevenson gets destroyed

 

It would be 'All Dwight on the Night', as our own Dennis Norden might say.

 

Stevenson: "Its over Qawi I have the high ground!"
Qawi: "You underestimate my power"

 

I doubt Adonis would land a flush shot on Qawi.

 

Agree.

 

Spinks did hurt Qawi when they fought and he wasn't as aggressive after that losing a decision,,,but Adonis ain't Mike Spinks. He'd have to rock Qawi early and stop him,,something I just don't see happening as Qawi grinds him down. I'd give Adonis a 1 in 5 chance at best
