    McCallum only had a cup of coffee at 168 before moving up to 175 lbs but how does he match up against the original Super Six: Ward, Froch, Kessler, Taylor, Abraham and Andre Dirrell.

    Probably wins them all. Id give ward a chance, but i think McCallum edges him in a close one

    No, I'm gonna be realistic, McCallum is NOT beating Ward.

    He's greater than Ward P4P, but Ward is not only too big for him, he's a stylistic problem for McCallum. Ward wins a clear UD over McCallum.

    I could see McCallum beating Froch and Kessler on pure class, but even those fights would be competitive.

    Taylor and Abraham, yeah McCallum beats those two easily.

    And Dirrell was too much of a mental midget to beat McCallum.

    I dont think Froch or Kessler have much of a chance against McCallum. They are too stiff to deal with him, and their elongated torso would be an open field for the body snatcher. But yeah, thinking back about it, Ward probably beats him
