Jack Dempsey v Oliver McCall

desper8 trolling as usual , i took d bait b4 d worse did .


"Stevie G" , feel more than welcomed 2 ignore this post of mine .

Harrison gets frightened by McCall's tan he was not used 2c on his opponents , given that he agreed 2 enter d ring at all which we know that he never did against differently colored opponents .

Fight ends similar 2d Maskaev fight or d Flynn fight , with McCall having no need 2 even remove Harrison's gloves from his face , but rather angrily punching along and through them , with poor William Harrison getting shamefully knocked out .

 

:rofl

I think Ollie with his head screwed on right wins this KO in mid rounds.

 

This is the same McCall who got decisioned by Orlin Norris in his prime, right? I never saw that fight and I hate to be a boxrec hero, but I just feel compelled to remind the thread that McCall was a very beatable dude.

I am neither a habitual dinosaur hugger nor a Dempsey booster, but I am going to say Dempsey by decision. Maybe by late TKO with McCall still on his feet but looking like he was hit by a car. McCall is a lot bigger and very tough physically, but at the end of the day he just wasn't that good.

 

Dempsey. Time has proven that McCall lacks the mental toughness to compete at the elite level.

 

The sensible debate would be:

"Can Dempsey be the first to stop McCall?"

 

Dempsey's greater workrate and speed of hand and foot should win a decision indeed but McCall can knock Dempsey out too. He's legions stronger than Dempsey and ko'd Lewis, Maskeev, Akinwande, Damiani and an unbeaten Seldon (I wonder if that fight ruined Seldon's punch resistance actually...)

1. It was an SD so maybe unjust?
2. Norris in his prime was pretty good, many thought he beat Tucker
3. McCall also ko'd Lewis, Maskeev, Akinwande and an unbeaten Seldon while decisioning Larry Holmes. Pretty dangerous for a smaller man?
4. McCall according to gave Tyson some hard times in sparring. A very good puncher, iron chin. Ironically Tyson clowned McCall when he lost to Douglas.


Can we stop with the Dempsey match ups now?

 

No way on earth could Jack stop Oliver it's beyond the realms of reasonable probability.

Jack probably wins a decision but I wouldn't rule out a Mccall stoppage.

 

Yeah that's a tall order. I just think that the atomic bull comes up short and dempsey finds a way. ( horse shoe in the glove ) The size difference would be a great challenge.

 

Nah, unless maybe he concentrated on Ollie's mid section maybe but otherwise no. Ollie faced dozens of punchers in his career and was a sparring partner for alot of big punchers like Cooper and Tyson and was never KO'd. According to what i've heard Tyson decked him about 3 times in sparring, but I can't confirm this. Funnily enough McCall said the naturally smaller Cooper was the hardest puncher he ever faced.

 

McCall also was a sparring partner 4 Frank Bruno which helps 2 explain his loss 2 Bruno along with d usual size disparity against McCall and d fight being fought in London as opposed 2d USA (not claiming that McCall deserved d decision but these factors and probably others had n effect) .

never read or heard anything on Tyson decking McCall , all i read was that he never managed it and that McCall floored Tyson .

I saw d sparing session in which McCall quit due 2 body punching by Tyson so maybe that was what u confuse with Tyson decking him .

Bruno has a claim 4 a technical KD over McCall and Akinwande has a claim 4 a KD over both McCall and Lewis although it was not ruled a KD in neither case .

 

Someone on here, don't remember who, just said that McCall had been decked a few times by Tyson, I'm not saying I believe it and like I said cannot confirm anything. I've seen the footage your talking about tho.
