Rocky Marciano vs Dwight Muhammad Qawi

Rocky beat much better fighters than qawi, also qawi doesn't have the power to make marciano respect him or the chin to survive 1 Suzy q, rocky marciano walks straight through him.

K.o. before the 4th

 

Marciano by 8 round ko .

 

Marciano beats him up....and how...

 

Very very tough fight. I'm thinking Marciano by very tight decision.

 

Good post. Quawi had good punch avoidance, Marciano is in for a rumble. But he will brake Quawi down in the end of the rounds or UD him.

 

Interesting matchup. It might be the only fight where Dwight would have a reach advantage: 71” compared to 67” for Marciano.

 

Oh...? Better fighters? Did he beat, say, prime versions of any among those you list among his best wins? One can actually rather easily say Marciano had several of the softest title fights ever among fighters who held the unified heavyweight championship.

And Qawi can't even take one Marciano power punch? Maybe somebody should of told that to the tremendously powerful George Foreman, who had to land dozens of power punches on an old and bloated Qawi when they actually met in reality, outside of this twilight zone that you seem to consider reality.

 

Not taking one overhand was an exageration, my point still standing that qawi had a bad chin, he's honestly a buff middleweight, also rocky didn't face Ali's contemporaries, but he did face master boxers such as ezzard Charles, Walcott and Moore who were all still very lethel.

 

I see this fight looking like the Moore fight without a KD of the Rock....I think Qwai was of all time caliber but didn't have the amount of fights to back that up but the quality of is opposition speaks volumes to his caliber but he doesn't beat the Rock he lacks Moores power to keep Rocky off but has the skills to make the Rock miss enough to survive for awhile

 

I'd say Walcott, Charles and Moore on the night Marciano first fought them would've beaten Qawi.

 

I'm not interested in discussing Marciano with most posters here. He tends to make fight fans a bit... irrational.

 

Marciano beats Qawi by punishing KO in a memorable fight.

 

Marciano wins a good fight fought at close and mid-range. I think Marciano-Spinks is a better matchup.

We don’t have to use the Spinks of 85’ at HW, we can use the LHW Spinks and not have him cut weight.
