    McCallum, Norris or Hearns all interchangable with me, with Winky fourth.

    Hearns would be the best 154lb fighter in my opinion with McCallum being number 2. Terry Norris would get beat by either of those. Norris would rank higher on a overall body of work at 154 than head to head in my opinion same as winky but in head to head Hearns is the man and only McCallum i can see beating him.

    Boudouani was a really good fighter, but didn't David Reid beat him and take his belt? Then, TITO decisioned David for the title?

    true mcCallum was destructive and had a style that he could switch up bewtween a boxer a puncher and a swarmer and a stylist. and sadly came in at a time when it mattered more about who promoted which, than the fighters themselves.

    his brutal ko of don curry was maybe his highlight.

    Or, the fact that he stopped Julian Jackson (who I rate in my Top 10, and who stopped Terry Norris) in two rounds. Those two fights, as well as his stoppage of McCrory, are what cements his #1 position for me.

    I'm way too much of a Hearns fan to say anybody but hit.

    There is no doubt that none of the "big 4" (hearns, leanord, Hagler, duran) made any attempt to fight McCallum though. And for a very good reason. He was a chance to beat all of them!!!!

    I don't see the likes of Vargas being competitive with those guys. Nor Trinidad to be brutally honest. Competitive, of course. Favourite? I don't think so.

    DLH neither.

    I don't care how old he was, no way in the world would Hearns, McCallum etc lose a fight the way Trinidad lost to Wright. No way known.
