SRR by fairly wide decision. I can't see SRR stopping Mccallum as he is a top 5 all timer at Light Middleweight for me and is one of the toughest SOB's ever to lace up gloves and on top of that, Mccallum has excellent defensive ring IQ skills.
What I can say is both guys have scored some the best knockouts I have ever seen with a beautiful left hooks.
This would be a great chess match. Had the 154lbs weight division existed in Robinson’s day, I suspect that would’ve been the perfect weight for him. Robinson is much faster and is better at throwing long punches, he’d get the better of it at long range and would beat him to the punch due to his greater reach, extension and speed, I actually think McCallum throws a better jab, but Robinson would still get the better at range by booking off of the jab and using counter rights, he’d also land counter uppercuts when McCallum opens up. McCallum would have to try and get inside where he throws tighter punches than Robinson, has much better body shots and has better technique up close except for the left hook where they’re equal, I still think McCallum shortens it up better, but Robinson’s is harder, overall I think McCallum has the advantage up close due to him throwing shorter punches, Robinson also throws a great uppercut, but it’s usually as a counter in mid range, not shortened up in close. Robinson needs to keep the fight at range as long as he can throwing whipping lead left hooks and sharp counter rights set up but feints and pawing jabs, he also needs to try to set McCallum up by timing his head movement with right uppercuts set up by lead hand, and also throw lead left uppercuts after throwing some jabs so he ducks into it, up close he needs to just throw flurries to try to escape and exit with a check left hook. Robinson competitive points decision.
