LOL! It's funny you say that.I got about 15 of his fights & even when he wins vs a tomato can he looks like he's going to cry.he fought some wilson guy before his eliminator with gomez & after he won the referee raised his had & he had tears in his eyes.the commentators were laughing & said"oh no! Here we go again".it was very comical.mccall came out of retirement cause his son is fighting & he trains with him & they are going to be on the same cards.that must be exciting for him to train & fight at the SAME time.he must be very proud & you know his boy won't make the same mistakes as dad.Rahman has being training with his son too & from what I hear he's doing very well in amateurs.he's going to be a big boy as well.we could have 2 father/son boxing families fighting.that's great that they can be active on the same cards as their sons...that's so neat.

In McCall's early days he was a good fighter, I remember his fight against Bruce Seldon that was a good one. But by the time of the Bruno fight he was crying on his way into the ring.
