    At 160lbs. The Bodysnatcher has all the tools to win this one - skill,ring generalship,good set of whiskers etc. but could G-Man get lucky with that awesome power of his?

    I say Mike does it by wearing his man down then stopping him late on.

    McCallum all day long. The gman had great power but no one ever stopped the body snatcher. Aside from being tough as nails he was as defensively sound as anyone.

    McCallum is one of a select few natural middleweights that I give McClellan almost zero chance of winning against. Might be a good fight for a while, but, McCallum is just too skilled and too tough. His iron chin and defensive skills would see him through McClellan's early onslaught.

    McCallum would end up neutralizing McCllelan and getting in his ass to break him down. Mike by late TKO or decision win

    Gerald couldn’t beat Mike with a baseball bat. He’d need a miracle he’d be so much more inferior then Mike it’d be glaring.

    McClellan was too inexperienced in 1990. He learned a lot in the first Jackson fight.

    Hard to look past Mike.

    Too well rounded for G-Man

    Was waiting to see if anyone went with GMan, would of been jnterested in their reasons why.
    Same as everyone here, Mike for me too.
    His wider and deeper skillset wod of seen him through.
