    I think the Sheriff gets his man this time.

    Gibbons vs Qawi could also be interesting!

    I agree. Im guessing that much of the reason to back Bob so confidently is down to his showing v Dick Tiger but Qawi is not Tiger although he looks to be built similarly. Naturally bigger and cagier. I wouldn't bet on this fight

    What happened to my Dick?

    I've got four stars where I put my Dick.

    'Only four?' I hear Mrs Ezzard say.

    I don’t think I would bet it either although perhaps a gentleman’s wager for bragging rights. I think Qawi vs Spinks is closer than many including the biased SRL commentary team of that fight, gave Holy all he could handle. I believe both of them are worse matchups for Qawi. I don’t see Foster stopping him, and I am not sure Foster is able to win a decision. I would pick Qawi as long as I don’t have to back it with money lol

    Would Walcott read Qawi his rights??

    he sure did in their rematch. Qawi looked like crap in that one and Evander was razor sharp.

    He must have a really incomplete record, he's mentioned a lot in the British press, but hard to find many fights.

    They did seem to have a lot of exhibitions compared to actual fights though.

    Yes, that is very incomplete. He was a magnificent specimen whose innovation of the cross ham lateral toss was far ahead of his time.
