    There was a direct comparison too. Graham didn't achieve a whole lot I'm afraid, so its mostly down to what you are interpreting when you watch them. He was all style no substance, and his biggest claim is that Hagler supposedly ducked him :lol:

    His best efforts are still losses and he always gave the impression he couldn't get over the finishing line at the top level.

    It's very much up for debate whether he's better than Robin Reid.

    in my view reid was starting to give him a beating and almost gave up giving 100% as the ref kept robbing him.

    i don't agree i don't rate steve collins at all, and watson has the weakest resume out of everyone mentioned.

    Joe Calzaghe. Best wins Jeff Lacy (could turn out to be a better win than it dose now but I have my dobuts) An old Chris Eubanks, an old Banard Hopkins and an old Roy Jones Jr. Also Mikkiel Kelssler.

    It may be, but based on the evidence I have seen, Graham was a significantly better/greater fighter, and that's all I'm saying.

    OK then, you disagree, but overall McCallum's resume is still clearly stronger than Calzaghe's.

    The Bhop that Calzaghe beat was a better fighter than the one Roy beat.*





    *I AM IN NO WAY SAYING JOE HAS A BETTER RESUME THAN ROY.

    Don't you understand yet that McCallum's best years were at 154, and Calzaghe's were at 168? Of course McCallum's opposition wouldn't put on 2 stones and beat Calzaghe at his weight :patsch

    he never won a world title i have said in another thread that he is one of the best fighters not to win a title but reid should have two title wins which shows he acheived more. You can have all the skills you want but winning is the name of the game and herol always came up short.

    I just doubt I'd be betting any money on Herol Graham if he fought a middleweight Robin Reid. Reid was pretty skilled too and a hard puncher.

    A guy in the Brit forum reckons he's a harder puncher than Carl Froch having faced both and everybody reckons the Cobra sting is deadly :lol:

    I have visions of Graham boxing beautfully until he's knocked out cold.

    Plenty feel Graham beat McCallum though - but for the low blow I would have given him the nod.
