Eubank by decision at his best, that was his weight and McCallum didn’t really have feet, he would have to pressure Eubank and that wouldn’t work with him being the smaller man in size
McCallum wasn't the smaller man. He was nearly six feet tall with a longer reach and he went on to win a world title at 175 where Eubank was 5'10 and never fought above Super Middleweight. Eubank was tough but McCallum was tougher and far more skilled. I have McCallum by UD.
You are right! I forgot all about those two fights with Thompson. McCallum also fought at Cruiserweight against James Toney.
Eubank was bigger in terms lean weight. He had to kill himsel to make 160. Mike having the height and reach would be important, though since his jab always was a big factor in any fight.
A tough fight both skilled with teak tough beards. I think McCallum’s slightly higher output wins him a close UD.
Mike makes it clear who is “simply the best” here. Despite being a very big fan of Chris he’s just not good enough, it’s a levels thing.
2 of my favorites, I think it would be a close SD/MD/Draw…forced to pick I give a slight edge to Eubank but not with confidence
