How good was Mike McCallum?

[mickey malone]

Kirkland Laing was one of the most skilled boxers Britain ever produced and was far more skilled than Herol Graham who was unfortunate to lose to McCallum at 160lb with Graham being a better fighter at 154lb your dismissal of Laing shows your ignorance of his career.

Laing was smaller, easier to hit and took a lot more risks. He wasn't anywhere near as fit as Graham and had an inferior chin, so how does this equate to him being far more skilled?
A fighter who is more skilled than Graham doesn't get KTFO by Buck Smith, Brian Janssen or anyone else at that level. It appears you're confusing skill with ability.

Boy your posts are starting to sound familiar. And you seem to keep shooting yourself in the foot with ridiculously outrageous claims that no one is or will agree with son. I wonder who you really are?

It's him........

i have made a strong case. McCallum would have his work cut-out to beat Kirkland Laing and been the underdog against Benitez & Hearns.

No he wouldnt have. Laing was brutally KO'd by a California boxer named Freddie Hutchings. I have that fight on VHS. So lets not pretend that Laing was something he wasn't. Laing was not in McCallum's class as a fighter and it would have been easy work for McCallum.

You've been leaving for 2 months. Stop making promises you're only going to break.

I haven't been resentful at all. I've only pointed out facts you choose to ignore. Same old, same old for you though.
