    It is very difficult to say because McCallum's fight style was so specific to the nation of Jamaica and its region's peculiarities. They worship the mugwaahn from grelims 2 over there. That's what Gizmo was, technically. You know the boxing saying "You can't find a Jamaican sparring partner anywhere unless you buy them dinner."? That saying was invented especially for Jamaicans.

    Doesn't matter. At 154 Mayweather never would have fought him.

    Good Lord Almighty, McCallum would destroy him and leave him in pieces.

    I am not a Floyd fan, but I can see his boxing winning a decision. If Kalambay could then Floyd could.

    Yeah - this one doesn't bode well for FMJ.
    I'd say only Hearns at 154 could be considered a worse match-up for Mayweather than McCallum.

    Mayweather would never fight a prime Mike McCallum at 154 without some BS catchweight clause.

    McCallum would whoop him at 154. If they were born to fight at the same weight i'd take Floyd for sure.

    This is your most realistic outcome by far. Next is McCallum winning big. Terrible fight for Mayweather.

    1. The only thing that would greatly aid Mayweather is his speed which Milke would have a hard time with.
    2. Curry whose hands are not as quick as Mayweathers was greatly troubling Mike.

    MCCallum whips them all. That is what I have learned here. Floyd is gonna get turned inside out and exposed for the fraud he was.
