kovalev vs qawi?

Qawi is the more proven fighter against better quality opposition for me to pick kovalev maybe in a couple of years it may be different . I'm thinking this at 175 lbs

 

:amen, Qawi all the way he has proven himself against better fighters, in 2 or 3 years if Kovalev is still rolling strong, i might be inclined to pick him BUT FOR NOW, it's Qawi..

 

Qawi bruises his body. Later stoppage.

 

Qawi is all wrong for Kovalev.

 

Qawi eats him alive....this becomes a brutal beat down. I'll take Qawi in between 6 and 8 same as Saad but because of the styles I have Qawi brutalizing him more while Saad knocks him clean out.

 

This. If Kovalev is quitting against Ward he really wouldn’t want to be matched with Qawi.

 

Dwight by late stoppage

 

personally, i think kovalev may be all wrong for qawi. qawi could only fight one way…….Forward. not a good idea vs kovalev. kovalev by ko.

 

Qawi would make Kovalev miss all day.... Then he would make him pay. Qawi by knockout in 6-8 rounds. Kovalev would not be able to handle the physicality of Dwight Qawi.

 

Qawi was like a wicked, smiling troll that chases you forever in a nightmare.

 

Nothing could be further from the truth! Qawi keeps getting painted as a come forward pressure fighter, when in reality he was more of a multi faceted skilled boxer counter puncher. Kovalev with his jab and right, with literally no body work and a seldom used left hook. He jabs with his left and that is about it. His stamina issues will leave him getting stopped over the championship rounds of 13-15. I think he was solid though and last 12 with them. Ring competitive for the first half and Qawi taking over the 2nd half. Perhaps an 8-4 or 9-3 type decision

 

This thread has been done before.

Qawi would eat Kov alive.

 

Once he gets close its Qawi's fight.
