How highly do you rate Mike McCallum?

Great ****ing post!!!

 

Another great ****ing post!!!

 

I believe Mike to be a great fighter. But he's a ****ing idiot. Think about something. Duran ducked McCallum- at the time his reputation hadn't yet been cemented- to fight Tommy Hearns - who had already established as an elite of his era and a murderous puncher as well?? Damn that coward Duran. Plus he made a lot of money against Tommy that he wouldn't have against Mike. It's safe to say Mike is full of it.

 

Let's compare Mike to Hagler and Hearns in terms of losses, draws and notable wins. And what you think of fairness/unfairness and dominance/lack of dominance concerning these results is of course a significant factor. You might also want to add or subtract some notable wins.
