Prime Mike McCallum beats Canelo or GGG like a drum

You’ve got to be joking.

Too strong for him?

He beat peak versions of Watson and Collins and almost beat Toney.

He fought at 40 years old against world class LHW’s and CW’s.

Nobody ever took Mike out in his entire career.

He had a great chin and was very savvy.

Mike was more skilful than both GG and Canelo, and he beat better fighters.

It’s absolutely ridiculous to say that they’d have been too strong for him.

 

You’re the one trolling.

 

You’re obviously not familiar with Mike’s career.

 

Some of these guys aren’t familiar with Mike’s career.

Saying that Mike would have beaten them like a drum is an exaggeration though.

Both GG and Canelo are obviously great fighters. But saying that Mike couldn’t have beaten them, or that they’d have been too strong for him and taken him out, is utterly ridiculous.

 

Exactly.

The thought of them taking him out is laughable.

 

No chance.

 

Canelo wouldn't like getting worked over to the body by Mike. His stamina is bad enough as it is.

Golovkin was sucking on air badly from a few Canelo body shots. His fans tried to cover it up by claiming he was doing some ancient Kazakh breathing technique. lol
SD him hurt to the body and the way he kept shelling up against Canelo to avoid body shots tells you he doesn't like it when guys go down stairs.

Golovkin would shell up even more against MaCallum because Mike had a better body attack and a better work rate than Canelo.

Jacobs is far bigger naturally than McCallum was and more powerful, plus he used a lot of movement against GGG, that wasn`t McCallum`s style, Mike was far better at 154 and he had a better KO ratio at 154 too.

 

I've seen GGG breathing HARD after a couple of rounds where he hasn't taken any body punches. Could be his age. The breathing technique could also be a thing.

 

I think McCallum could have beaten Floyd at 160.

 

Mark, you should stop posting for awhile.

 

Did his jab out-put dip though?

 

Mark, please stop posting immediately.

 

This is closer to a fact than an opinion.

 

McCallum was not a power puncher at 160, his best KO`s were at 154 where he stopped Jackson and Curry, name one top fighter Mike stopped at 160, he stopped Watson but that was by wearing him down, Jacobs hits harder at 160 than McCallum did, surely.
