Mike McCallum vs The Fab 4

McCallum beats them all, except MAYBE Hagler, but even that is not beyond the realms of possibility. The guy was never dropped until he was weeks away from his 40th birthday and that was by a prime Jones Jr. He was also in very close fights with a prime Toney.


There is also good reason to believe that the conversation that apparently took place between Mike and Leonard in which he was told he was avoided by at least 3 of them because he was considered too big a risk for too little reward is also true.

 

McCallum W Duran
McCallum W Benitez
McCallum W Hearns
McCallum 50/50 Leonard
Hagler W McCallum

 

Kinda unfair to pit either Duran and Benitez versus the Body Snatcher, as he was naturally a lot bigger than both.

I don't think Hearns loses this one either.

 

I kinda agree with this, Both fighters were counter punchers, so who would take lead? Both would be uncomfortable being the aggressor, so more than likely a chess match, a boring fight for the general public, (but a real fight fan would love, artistry off the charts). But I see Benitez just being a tad to slick (think how he made the even taller Hearns consistently miss who was faster then McCallum and hit much harder, Hearns was every but the boxer McCallum was to) I see Benitez getting a split dec.If both fighters at their prime and fought to full ability.
