    Who takes it ? I have a slight leaning towards the Ol' Mongoose,but can't be certain. Archie comes way above Dwight in an all time list,but Qawi had the style to give Moore problems throughout the fight.

    I don't think Qawi has the power to break down Archie like Marcinao did. Moore should be able to outpoint him like Spinks, or perhaps stop him with his accuracy like Holyfield in their rematch.

    Nice little dream fight. I think Qawi could give Moore trouble with his underrated skills and outstanding physical strength and hand speed.

    Qawi would give Moore problems in the early rounds, but by the middle rounds, Moore takes contron en route to a 15 round Unanimous decision.

    Great matchup Stevie G! I think Moore would have been too much for Qawi.

    I would be a tough fight. Qwai very tough, hugely under rated due to his loss to Spinks who had the size speed and power to decision him but not really beat him up in any way ... at light heavy , in his short prime, Qwai was a beast ... that being said Moore had just so much more experience and a hell of a punch and that would make Qwai a little gun shy ... I like Moore by decision ...
