    I think it would depend on how much crack Oliver smoked before the fight

    McCall has the chin and 1punch KO Equaliser. He is limited and as long as the fight lasts gets outboxed. He has an outside chance of a KO, but doesn't have the offesive capabilities of a Shavers/Foreman. Lets not forget his scalps - LEnnox Lewis, Akiwander, Maskeev, Seldon, Holmes and has even put a good win together way past his prime beating Sam and Diaz

    But the guy is the epitome of the "lazy slugger" style.

    Norton wins this comfortably for me, i thought he was a hard working class fighter .... Mccall on the other hand is a guy with a granite chin, limited skills, mental/drug problems and worst of all lost to Frank Bruno, Mccall was better than guys like Tua but Norton was on an altogether higher level ..... Is this thread for real ? i feel this is a joke thread and im being a little slow .. Mccall v Norton ?? Mccall v ibeabuchi, Mccall v Lyle, Mccall v Moorer, yeah maybe but Mccall v Norton ??
