View Full Version : Is Oliver McCall for real?

We all remember McCall as the guy who won the WBC Heavyweight title with a 2nd round KO of undefeated Lennox Lewis in 1993. Then he was stopped in the rematch 4 years later after breaking down crying in between rounds after dropping Lewis. Now he's undefeated since the Lewis fight, knocking out Henry Akinwande in the process. He fights Davarryl Williamson Saturday in a fight there is no way he can lose. He has a fight scheduled for 2 weeks after that as well. Is McCall, with his serious punch and granite chin, a threat to be champ in this weak division?

He is if he is still on crack, if he has kicked the crack pipe then I give him no shot.

I love Oliver and would roll around naked in my yard if he ever became champ again, get smokin Oliver, it's your only hope!

The guy was a drug addict. Cut him some slack. He had just put Lewis down when he started crying!

No he did not.

McCall is fat and old and was never very good to begin with. A good journeyman and gatekeeper but his time has passed . . .

His LL fight was the weirdest thing I have seen in boxing, with FanMan not far behind.

You forgot to mention that Frank Bruno beat him for the title after the Lewis win and he was losing the entire Akinwande fight until he got the KO in the last round I believe.
