    ....you are retarded. Mccallum by stoppage. The dude was smart and when Floyd tried that turn your back or bend down Zahir Raheem shit, Mccallum would airhole him. Floyd is great, but he is human. He has no chance versus Mccallum who is one of the best fighters ever at 154, if not number one.

    I was just trolling, truth be told.

    "However" (Copywright Father of Muzse, 2007)

    Floyd just beat Oscar, and he wasn't even fighting at his best, and Oscar is a very good junior middleweight. Besides McCallum tends to be overrated on this board.

    Nevertheless, I'd pick McCallum...

    Why wasn't Floyd at his best? Biggest fight of his career? If anyone wasn't at his best it was DLH...he hasn't been at his best since the Trinidad/Mosley I fight...

    Mayweather would find a way to survive, dropping a fairly obvious decision.

    McCallum's just too much of everything for him at the weight.

    I highly doubt Floyd would last the distance with McCallum at 154.

    While I think McCallum does get overrated by certain folks, at his best he is an infinitely better fighter than the DLH that Mayweather beat at 154. Mayweather isn't hurting McCallum with anything and will be forced to try to run and potshot his way to a win. But he won't....McCallum by decision or by TKO if Floyd tries to make a fight of it.

    Bra......

    It's VERY DIFFICULT to Ko Floyd. Like Pernell Whitaker, he's too hard to hit to get KO'd and plus he's proven a dependable chin, good survival instincts, recuperation and heart.

    McCallum would have to chase him. It's going the distance.

    Mayweather would pull every trick in his encyclopaedia to survive after he realised he couldn't really get the best of McCallum. I think he'd make it to the bell, but that would be his only victory, & there's no shame in it. He's a smaller man, not a lesser one.
