    What is your point? You said Louis was way too small and that McCall would laugh at him, and I proved you wrong, conclusively, yet you still manage to come back with an immature retort. You're something else.

    He never said KO. He said knock him down.

    And Louis dropped bigger men than McCall. Size is not an issue.

    Nobody is invulnerable. Just because he hasn't been dropped doesn't mean he can't be. There are a number of heavy hitters that could do it. The odds would not be in their favor, but hey, you never know. Lennox Lewis, Tyson, Tua, Liston, Foreman, Shavers, even Wlad have enough power to drop McCall if they can catch him with the right shots. I wouldn't bet money on it, but them dropping him wouldn't shock me.

    I don't have to convince you. It's not like you've given a reason. Louis stopped larger men than McCall, so his size isn't as big of an issue as you make it out to be.

    If Tyson could not drop McCall or Frank Bruno,,, yes McCall was a main sparring Partner for Mccall,, How do you think Louis could?

    Louis never faced a chin like mccall either,, McCall is a once in a generation chin
