Oliver McCall vs David Haye

[EdwardRevolver1993]

McCall from 1995 vs Haye from 2010.

How it goes?

The Atomic Bull would outbox and outpunch Haye behind his jabs and powerful right hands to either take a decision or if he caught Haye with a big right hand, then he would stop him late.

Mmmm....got to admit I do like all the jepoardy in this which is hovering over both their houses

But I will go for McCall who could box, bang hard enough to lights-out Haye if he made a small mistake and was also definitely strong enough to get up and fight back if Haye did manage to nail him with some early bombs.

I liked what Haye did up at HW - it was pretty remarkable for a CW - but McCall is not an oak wardrobe like Valuev and he won't just try and barrel forward like a shop-worn Ruiz did. He could hit, slip shots and set some traps.

So Ollie it is and I think (on reflection) it might be quite easy.

1995 is the year that McCall had the mental breakdown against Lennox right? I don't know that that's the year of Oliver McCall I'd be picking for big fights

Wrong. McCall had the mental breakdown against Lennox Lewis in their rematch in 1997 not 2 years earlier.

Yep. But he had those anxiety problems even then (in 1995 and prior to). I was recently rewatching clips of McCall-Holmes and McCall-Bruno. Man, McCall looked like he was about to burst in tears during pre-fight introductions.
