    How do you see this interesting match up go between 2 savvy boxers with a sturdy chin, great combinations, cute defense, versatility, and high ring IQ?

    The Keed for me. He was a better infighter than McCallum, much faster of hand, and was also a better technical boxer at distance. Moreover, he had the chin and the unreal stamina to withstand McCallum's attack.

    Yeah I agree, Gavilan was just on another level entirely.

    Gavilan on his game was just better. Quicker handed and an even better ring IQ, imo.
