    I would also ass that McCallum has many of the same stylistic traits and stylistic advantages Monzon had

    Yeh, I think the thing here is there's a few movers in there and long-range sorta guys like Mundine, Bouttier. So I don't think he looks good against these guys. I think he could produce the reign but it would be a huge ask of him.

    I think McCallum has the skillset to beat Briscoe. Agree on Valdez although it might not be that comfortable. I don't know what to make of Benvenuti. I think Mike and a prime Griffith is a 50-50 fight so I think Mike just squek it here. Napoles is a toss up though IMO
