Mike McCallum vs. Lloyd Honeyghan

15 Rounds Super Welterweight Bout

Should Honeyghan move up at super welterweight in his prime in 1987 and challenge "The Bodysnatcher" Mike McCallum for his WBA Super Welterweight title like his rival Donald "The Cobra" Curry, then the Raggin Muffin Man would have the fate like Curry as the Bodysnatcher would tear Honeyghan apart with jabs and great body punching before he puts Honeyghan out with a right hand and left hook in 10 rounds. What do you guys think and who do you got?

That's what Elmer would say on certain boxing legends was the different class.

There's no comparison between the two. The only thing in common is that both are Jamaicans and boxing world champions. Mike McCallum by far was the better fighter.
