    Forgot how good this one was. Jackson landed some BOMBS early and Mike hung tough and took over :bbb

    Great fight while it lasted yeah McCallum did have to hang on at times ,did you notice also that McCallum after getting stung the first time landed quite a few low blows . Quite an intelligent tactic if not a legal one , mccallum I would have to say is the best boxer I have seen live

    Jackson couldn't hike those trunks up high enough to keep his body from being snatched. :yep

    That hook that shook McCallum in the first hit him high, and it looked like he caught part of it, too. He hit Jackson some vicious (legal) body blows, particularly that right uppercut at around 3:57 or so.

    You seen the rematch between him and Kalambay yet, Addie?

    Whereas the first fight is a one-sided technical masterclass, the rematch is a two-way one. Both great fights to watch for different reasons.

    I'd have loved to have just put Sumbu, Charles, Toney, McCallum, Moore, Burley, Williams and Marshall all in a big Super 8 tourney and just take a look at what happens :smoke

    mccallums left jab, his slipping and rolling were magnificent but his body punching above and below the belt were sublime.
    how would he have gone on against the big four ?????
