Gerald McClellan

[Fulcrum29]

sorry I meant other way around Mclellan beat Jones in the amateurs. But as most know that doesn't mean much. Taylor beat Pavlik in the amateurs and we all know what happened in the pros.

McClellan used to be involved in illegal dog fighting.

Benn showed he was a dog lover as he sent the G Man to a lifetime of darkness.

That english ref ****** balls. It was known that europe favors there fighters, and stop fights early in favore of eruopean fighters when american boxers go to fight in europe. That ref shoudl have stopped that figh in the first round. And benn was hitting mccallen illegally behind the head. It was clear there was something wrong with him, if he was well without inccident he'd beat benn as he was before aftermath.

I think he could of been great, but i recall a lot of hype for him cause he was koing everybody. I would say he had good skills, defence, balence, distance/range was all there for him and he had a good reach that i recall. Roy v. Mccallen was talked about but now remembering i dont' recall Hopkins name even mentioned during mccallens era. Can't recall or even if toney v. mccallen name were mentioned since toney was around at 168 i think where roy soon went.

Its never clear if Roy would of fought Gearald.

How should he have stopped the first in the first? Benn showed after the first that he was perfectly capable of fighting past the first round scare, Benn wasn't fouling him bad at all they were clubbing shots not rabbit punches, McCllelan wasn't complaining either. People like Hatton, Hopkins foul much more than Benn did in that fight. It was an unfortunate ending to a great fight and the Bobby George no man deserves what happened to G-man that night.

Roy vs McClellan was reportedly one of the best ameature fights ever...

[El Dominicano]

I've alwayz thought of Gerald MeClellan as the RJJ who didn't show boat or throw 5x hookz in a row...he was a better body puncher tough. Would have been a GREAT fight

[Thread Stealer]

I don't think he was all that great. Good to very good? Yes.

But a future ATG if not for the head injuries? I don't see it. Most of the ATGs, or at least second-tier greats, who are big punchers have a lot more to their game.

I didn't see that with G-Man. He had decent skills, but nothing special. He had a solid chin and sick power, but there's more than that to being an ATG, especially when it comes to fighters in more talented divisions with more skilled fighters (not heavyweight).

Roy Jones would've schooled him as a pro. McClellan was tailor-made for James Toney. Toney would have beat the **** out of McClellan at 168.
