I've been watching boxing since Ali vs Shavers. Dwight Muhammad Qawi is one of the toughest guys to ever step into the ring. He was a great fighter champion!🏆
Dwight is just a class act. The pure defintion of the statement that"Life is about Redemption"
He is the biggest small man think I have every seen.
I was too young to watch Joe Frazier fight, but I always liked watching Qawi bob and weave and grin!

Dwight Braxton "Camden buzzsaw"also had a younger brother who fought pro as super middle weight I believe that's the correct weight class david Braxton,in a interview with Ring mag he hinted at the faces of Dwight made in the Ring during his fights were really due to a breathing issue his brother had even as a kid growing up he breathed thru his mouth alot

He didn't account for the steroids.
Holyfield was in the hospital after the first fight because he was dehydrated and lost 15 pounds not because he couldn't go the distance because he did the way to spin the story your way.
Qawi still bitter to this day over that mugging Holyfield gave him.

I think Qawi has always held a slight grudge on Holyfield after all these years cause he couldn`t beat that young hungry lion back then, plus the fact he got knocked out in their rematch. So what if Evander spent two weeks in the hospital ? Most likely it was for dehydration and never gone 15 rounds before.He still beat Qawi.

The truth always comes out in the end. If Holy was using roids, I think somebody legit will out him at some point.
Foreman was Whuppin your little behind you hung with him for a bit but George still whooped you in fact he was about to knock you in the middle of next week until the referee stepped.

Bro he wasn’t whooping him he was ahead on the cards due to his energy the reason he quit was the kidney shot foreman landed also he packed on too many pounds he shouldn’t of been fighting in the heavyweight division

The ref didn't stop it, Qawi quit. I love Foreman but he fought dirty that fight. Elbows, kidney punches. Qawi has balls of steel to fight Foreman at 5'7 and past his best. Foreman is the hardest hitter in boxing history and he gave him a good fight, and entertained. 5'10 is short for a heavyweight, 5'7 is another species. Tyson is 5'10 and is the shortest modern heavyweight Champ. Most are 6'3+, including Foreman.
Bla,bla,bull! - Evander would kick dat oss any Day,any Time,any round(s) but at 06:57 he LIED.
