    If McCall never used drugs he likely wouldn't of had the cast iron chin :lol:

    He was just so, so durable. His durability isn't natural at all, just a freak.

    Oliver McCall was never much more than a journeyman. And a glorified sparring partner.

    Big, strong, powerful and durable, a dangerous puncher, but not much of a boxer. A lacklustre plodder for the most part.
    Yes, his longevity is admirable, but his ability was never up to much.

    Frank Bruno was just superior, and that sums up McCall's level.
