Ha ha.... How the hell are Oliver McCall and Hasim Rahman "journeymen"????? Sure they arent the second coming of Joe Louis but they are decent heavies.

McCall beat Lewis, Holmes, Maskaev, Akinwande, Damiani. and 5 of his 7 losses were to world champions.

Rahman beat corrie saunders, should have beaten David Tua (twice if it wasnt for dodgy reffing and judging), Obed Sullivan....

So neither are journeymen. In fact both are ex world champions...
