      Everything minus offense. McCallum's offense at 154 was better than Toney's at any weight.

        Agree 100% with that. Although counterpunching may be about even.

          I agree with this. McCallum was brutal during his fights with Watson (round 2) and Jackson. He was also prepared to chase his opponents, unlike Toney who always wanted his opponents to come to him. Both of them also fought a prime Jones and McCallum did way better than Toney did
