An intreguiging matchup between perhaps the greatest ever middleweight and a rather poor heavyweight, at the peak of his career. Thoughts?
I think that Ketchell probably wins due to his class, but Jamel McLine is a little better than most seem to realise and the massive size, reach and presumably power advantage could mean trouble against Ketchell, who would be there to be hit. The safest i could say is that if Ketchell decides to pull a last round double cross, there will be know saving knockout.
This is one fight where I can honestly say I dont know. Too many unknowns both ways. McClines currency will go up with time. You heard it here first.
Nah, we're talking about a middleweight against a superheavyweight here. A bridge too far. McLine by ko

Interesting :think Any reasons or factors as to why McCline will gain a sudden burst of renewed respect down the line? I'm not flaming, genuinely interested to know.:good
WTF? look.... McCline has never been great at 260+ pounds, but he is good---when in top condition................ **** all the Stan Ketchel legendary stories from 1909, etc......... McCline is NOT a *****....... The McCline who beat Briggs in 2002 would **** Ketchel up in a catch-weight fight............. Be Real........... atsch:shock::twisted::hey:bbb:deal SR.BILL
I am interested to know, how do you think that this McLine would go against the middleweight James Toney? Same Result? Actually, how do you think the current Toney would go against Ketchell?
Ketchel drops a bomb of badassitude off in the ring so powerful that the shock wave knocks everyone in the stadium unconscious and leaves McLine ******ed and with a craving for tuna rolls.
Toney is way better and stronger than Ketchel ever was......... Ketchel's best chance at beating Toney was at 160 pounds..... Toney was drained most of the time at 160.... The last time Toney made 160 in a comfortable manner was when he KO'd Nunn in 1991..... The Toney who ate up Barkley at 168 or the Toney who chopped down Jirov at 190, would hammer Stan Ketchel in the ring..... The Toney who wasted Holyfield in 2003 at 217 pounds would kill Ketchel in a time machine........ MR.BILL:bbb
Amen. Ketchel had a style... a poor one at that.. no technique, no combinations that prevailed throughout the course of any footage, no ability to read what was happening... as the bouts had a little 'scientific script'. The man was floored with all moderns fighters by comparison.
