    JJ looked too wild in 1986, can he score the monumental KO after a little maturation?

    Maturation?

    I think McCallum always would've been too smart, but any great puncher can get a lucky one in.

    Too smart, and too durable and too strong, I should say.

    Jackson was always a limited slugger.

    That's it. Not too many ko's on that resume against elite chins. Lots of them against the Cardamone & Milton types though. Trouble is, McCallum is a much much better fighter than those guys. And the trouble starts when it's Julian being the guy that has to eat some clean punches.
