15 Rounds Super Welterweight Bout

The Bodysnatcher would overwhelm Brown behind his jabs and counters on the body and head to KO him in 7 rounds with a big left hook. What do you guys think and who do you got?

Mike McCallum would take it easy on his countryman because he knows that a smaller fighter like Simon Brown would not be at him in a million years.

McCalllum wins this quite easily.

Brown outworks him down the stretch for a UD. He knew how to handle taller guys - like Blocker.

Don't underestimate McCallum because would wear him down with longer jabs and counters on the body to either take a decision or stopping him late.

Not even in a million years. Mike McCallum's abilities were second to none. Too strong, too slick, too much of everything. A different class! Maybe 2 classes above.

Even though that was Noxy's opinion, but like you said, McCallum would never allow Brown to outwork him as McCallum's abilities were second to none and he was in a different class.

I don't get the fact that some people in this forum totally underrate the great Mike McCallum. The guy at 154lbs was a total beast!

He was a good as the 4 Kings. And I wouldn't be surprised if he would have beaten all of them. He was that great.
