    I just rewatched this bout and I have to be honest-I had Graham winning this bout although very close.Anyone else think Graham won?

    Close, but I go with McCallum. I think that I will watch it again. One of the very fights without commentators talking all the time.

    I thought in round 5 Graham scored a flash knockdown-Mccallum was off balance and Graham took advantage and threw a hook and Mccallum went down-that should have been ruled a knockdown.

    No. i thought McCallum pulled away at the end for a 2-4 point win, but i've never actually scored it.

    It seemed to me, Graham threw it away with too much low hands showboating defensively and exchanging more than he needed to.If he had fought a more discplined fight it's possible he could have got the win, as of the two McCallum was hte one going flat out.a rematch or series of fights earlier in the decade would have been interesting.
