    The modern eras most destructive puncher Vs perhaps the hardest chin in heavyweight history?

    12 rounds

    McCall would stop Wilder in 9-11 round.

    I think that McCall has a good late fight and might even stop Wilder. If he does not, then Wilder on points since he is a lot busier than McCall.

    I see McCall stopping a tired wilder in the very late round s.
    He'd take some right shots first.

    I don’t know if McCall would be active enough to win, however, if he hurts Wilder late on, he may be able to stop him, but McCall’s inactiveness was likely a reason he never got dropped, because he didn’t open up much to get caught, he thought defence first and looked for gaps when he knew he’d land.

    Wilder may just be able to do more and keep McCall honest. If McCall just started swinging, there’s no reason he isn’t at risk for getting knocked out, since the whole reason he never did get knocked out was because he always liked to see what was coming, therefore taking less chances.

    Wilder points. McCall barely beat an old ass Holmes.

    McCall eventually catches and stops Wilder. Probably looks quite a bit like McCall's fight against Henry Akunwande.

    McCall’s got a live chance. But as someone mentioned I don’t know if he’d be busy enough to take a points win. If wilder gasses and McCall comes on strong with a barrage there’s a possibility of stoppage win for the Atomic Bull. But for now I’ll make Wilder the slight favorite
