Sumbu Kalambay vs Michael Watson At MW

Kalambay against McCallum is arguably the best performance in MW history.

 

Kalambay on points in what turns out to be quite a routine win.

 

That's what I was going to say. I don't really see a possibility of it going any other way.

 

I had that closer than I guess a lot of people did, although I felt Kalambay was definitely the rightful winner. The rematch was the same but in reverse.

 

Kalambay is right for Watson, how? He only really fought one master boxer, McCallum who completley destroyed him.

 

I went with Kalambay given their respective bouts with McCallum but I like your reasoning. I just don't see Kalambay getting stopped.

 

I think Sumbu would win .good fight but I think his class would be the difference

 

Arguably the best performance in boxing history of any weight, yet it's sadly unknown and not celebrated. It was like a rich man's Mayweather.

 

And Watson like a rich man's Winky. Watson's performances against Benn and Eubank (second fight) were more impressive than Toney-Barkley, Jones-Toney and Calzaghe-Lacy. Benn and Eubank were physically peaked and firing on every cylinder possible, Watson completely schools and totally dominates. True masterclasses.

 

Destroyed ? Hardly. Sumbu couldn't knock his shadow out. McCallum could punch.

 

Maybe not Charlie. Resilient bloke.

 

McCallum describes the Watson fight as his toughest ever. McCallum looked like the elephant man in the post fight presser 'I've beaten Watson. I've beaten Graham. Where's Chris?'

 

Flattened by Nunn mind you.

 

Err, yeah. Obvs.

 

Absolutely.
