    Toss up imo. Comes down to who wants it more on the night. Thoughts?

    Pastrano would run very well for the first couple of rounds but Qawi would catch him. Plenty worse fighters managed to corner and stick Pastrano to the ropes. Qawi would have the power and skill to finish him

    Pastrano presents style problems for Qawi, but he ain't winning.

    Why? Because he cant hurt Qawi in the LEAST bit, and you gotta put some hurt on Qawi to keep him off.

    Qawi steadily breaks Pastrano down, and by circa 8-9 he'd be giving Pastrano a beating and the ref or corner wound have to intervene.

    If Pastrano was Willie Pep good, it'd be a different story. But he was a poor man's Willie Pep.
