Dwight Muhammad Qawi vs. Rocky Marciano?

Question

The Brockton Blockbuster vs. The Camden Buzzsaw

Think before you answer this, especially all you die hard Marciano fans. Let's have them fight at 190, as that is the weight that Marciano averaged around, and only a pound less than Qawi was when he mowed down Piet Crous in 11 rounds to capture the WBA Cruiserweight title.

15 rounds.

Answer 1

Brad, Marciano would withstand anything Qawi threw at him. I'm not saying the Rock would come out of this fight unscathed as both fighters had a relentless pressure type style. I think Marciano would win a unanimous decision. Both would look the worse for wear after the fight was over.

Ray - It's an open forum to express your opinion. Agree to disagree or don't answer the question.

Answer 2

Brad I believe that Marciano despite his size, had enough power to knock out a horse. He had enormous power in both hands too. Qawi as is his style would try to trade with Marciano and would land some good punches much like Moore did when they fought but would be overwhelmed. I believe in a non stop action fight that Marciano knocks out Qawi in the 7th round.

Answer 3

even although Qawi replaced into difficult and left all of it interior the ring, a puncher like Marciano ought to haven't any problem in any respect searching him. Qawi must be waaay too open for the right hand. I hate to positioned down this kind of courageous little slugger, yet he's made for Marciano. I see a Marciano KO win interior the seventh round of a barnburner. TONGUE-click!

Answer 4

QAWI - W 40 (KO's 25) TF 53 - W pct 77% - KO pct 53% - wins over Saad Muhammad[2] and L.Spinks - KO'ed by Holyfield and Foreman

MARCIANO - W 49 (KO's 43) TF 49 - W pct 100% - KO pct 88% - wins over Louis, Walcott{2}, Moore and Charles - KO'ed by none - #14 ranked puncher - #13 ranked fighter
Retired undefeated as a champion and as a fighter
He was smart enough to stay retired
Most athletes don't learn that age is the great equalizer

The question of this fight is an insult to Rocco greatness. I pity the fool that thinks Qawi should even get in the ring with Rocco. This bout is a total mis-match. Rocco in a KO inside of 5 rds.

P.S. Brad, this question and Brent's answer is stepping on my main man tough guy's toes.

Answer 5

I would have to say Marciano I,ve only seen tapes of him and it,s hard for any one who saw Qawi bet against him the only reason I take Marciano over Qawi is that he was a undefeated heavy weight champion with about 48 fights what a great fight that would be I asw the Evander Hollyfield QAWI FIGHT AND IT WAS ONE OF THE BEST FIGHTS I,VE ever seen I would hot want to fight eather one of them I thought about this fight and what about Matthew Sadd Muhammad and Marciano

Answer 6

MARCIANO... who do you think you are to question him!
