    I've got Greb on points here. I just think he was level above McCallum who was a very good fighter in his own right. Thoughts?

    McCallum as a technician looks better than all of Greb's filmed opponents. Both on the inside and outside. Sports move on. Although I'd guess Greb goes the distance

    McCallum UD

    Mike, but he was a slight bit overrated. A slight bit.

    Greb knocks out the body snatcher. He's a solid level above Mike

    McCallum looks much better on film.

    And he actually existed. (And still exists.)
