    I would say McCallum was the more skilled, and imo, greater fighter. As has been stated, his prime was at 154, but he was excellent at 160 as well.

    I reckon Hopkins' size is a factor, but McCalum's skill scompensate for this on the inside, and we see a very close decision with neither guy hitting the floor.

    Draw after 12 rounds.
