Close fight, Luis was an awesome technician, Dundee used to rate him as high as Ali and Leonard, but McCallum is another great technician, due the fact that Kalambay outboxed McCallum and i believe that Luis is better than Sumbu, i'll pick LMR by 15 close ud.
Agreed. The Middleweight off the top of my head with equal or better lateral movement than Kalambay is LMR. I think LMR would edge this.
I rate Luis as a better boxer than Mike. Not a huge amount in it though. It's very hard to say who would take this because of how tactical the fight would be. Part of me thinks LMR would win the rounds but Mike would catch him at some point. Although I think that's a copout. LMR has beaten bigger men though in Rondon and Briscoe but Mike is a better man than those. The very 50/50. Good match up.
Rodriguez is one of those fighters who was underrated for so long that it’s possible to swing a bit too far the other way at times. Doesn’t mean he wouldn’t win this but I wouldn’t count McCallum out - this is a close matchup, particularly at The Bodysnatcher’s best weight. I pick McCallum by a razor-thin decision.
