Emile Griffith vs Mike McCallum You know the drill answer and reason/explanation closes in exactly a month
I kind of agree with Moe here. I think multiple fights would result in multiple winners as well. They're very evenly matched. As it is, I'll flip a coin and take Griffith.
griffith builds an early lead but mccallum`s body attack would be crucial in this being a fifteen rounder and he comes from behind to win a disputed split decision not convinced me neither :?
I'm picking McCallum, a very close fight, he might get a knockdown to win it. I think he would try and box, he's been watching the Rodriguez fights, but he gets caught too much and then fights the faster man, i think he just comes out on top using clever hard shots, just.
Battle of the tacticians. Griffith by decision. So much experience fighting at such a high level for so long. Boring? No way! Great tactical match-up, and a close fight. Griffith edges it by SD.
2-2 i pick Griffith to execute a perfect strategy of moving in and out of range and not giving McCallum any openings and take a very close and dull fight by UD 3-2 Griffith
I see McCallum as having the better technical boxing ability, more defensively sound, better jab and smarter, he's famed for his body attack but its the way he would combine it with everything else that was impressive and calculated. Its no easy fight for him ofcourse but I see him winning and 8-4 or 10-5 type UD, quite clearly
Almost too hard to pick. I think McCallum steals a very tight victory, for the only reason that I can think to seperate them; he punches harder. IN MY OPINION. Hence he steals the judges eyes a bit more. Seriously close though, and to those who say it would be boring, if someone said to you they could get mccallum from the 80's to fight the Griffith that beat Dick Tiger you'd get a ****in boner and be creaming in your pants to see it.
