why not? even at 45 no one has fought the competition he has fought since last october.lance whitaker,fres oquendo,timur ibragimov & now cedric boswell...he is 2-1 vs the first 3 i mentioned & there are guys getting shots who havent earned it...mccall at 45 has been fighting better guys then any top 20 contender.he beats boswell i think he should be considered for a title shot or at least a final eliminator
if mccall beats boswell i think he should get a title shot

I will say this:
Boswell-McCall is a much more interesting fight than Boswell-Cooper, and I will be watching tomorrow night for sure.
Boswell is underrated, he can punch and I wouldn't be shocked if he stops old McCall.Comment

i think boswell should get a crack at the title if he beats mc call!
boswell is a decent fighter! even though he gets up there in ageComment

McCall is funny to watch. his painfully slow nowadays, at his age....and even in his prime he wasnt exactly a speed demon.
Yet his still has that hidden, sneaky power.
Im impressed hes still doing so well at his age, all things considered.Comment

Is this really the state of the heavyweight division? I don't mean to disrespect McCall, who has done well for himself, but man. What happened to the days when a guy like Frank Bruno was a contender who had no chance to beat the best? I'll settle even for that.Comment

You mean the state of the heavyweight division IN THE USA?
The division is doing fine in Europe: Wlad, Vitali, Haye, Pulev, Adamek, Helenius, Fury, Chisora, Price, Glazkov, Boytsov, etc.Comment

If people think Oliver McCall might deserve a title shot, then the division has a problem. Has nothing to do with America.Comment
