12 (or 15) Rounds Super Welterweight Bout

The Bodysnatcher would overwhelm the Golden Boy by outjabbing and countering his attacks with shots on the body and head to knock ODLH out in rounds 11 under the 12 round rule or 14 rounds under the 15 round rule after McCallum nail De La Hoya with a big left hook on the body like B-Hop did to De La Hoya at middleweight. What do you guys think and who do you got?

McCallum. Anyhow.

Oscar's hand and foot speed would definitely be a factor. Donald Curry was tying him (McCallum) up in knots but kept dropping his hands and then, KA-BOOM!

Sambu Kalambay was a little too slick, although that was up at MW. Herol Graham, pushed him real close (again at MW) with his switch hitting, so not beyond the realms of possibilty that Oscar could stay away.

As you guys have said, the body shots. Could McCallum land them often enough and enough of them to slow Oscar down? Probably. Oscar, at SWW, was pretty good and gutsy but McCallum was a beast, so I would have to go with McCallum by a late stoppage (over 15, yes) or maybe, close MD.

Draw, or Majority Decision for both, considering certain circumstances.

What is this? Oscar De La Hoya was not in the great Mike McCallum's level. This is murder all over. OMG!

McCalllum by knockout in 7.

Oscar was good. But, The Body Snatcher was one of the greatest when it comes to 154lbs.

I agree. McCallum was just the better more complete fighter

Similar to the Hopkins-De La Hoya bout.
