    @ 154 or 160. Does the Lara have the style to trouble and possibly outbox a skilled boxer like the Bodysnatcher?

    I’m leaning towards McCallum here

    McCallum would kick Lara's ass.

    Could see Lara taking the first fight, but McCallum doing him in the rematch and trilogy, McCallum would sometimes struggle against movers, but he does have the quality to pull it off if he’s on it and/or is familiar with him.

    For me it would be a similar on McCallum vs Kalule.
