George Foreman vs Oliver McCall for Undisputed in 1995

Post by EdwardRevolver1993 »

Both coming off their upset wins over Moorer and Lewis respectively.

The fight happens in April 1995, instead of McCall-Holmes and Foreman-Schulz. And this would've been before Foreman would start vacating his belts.

So, McCall (WBC) vs Old Big George (WBA/IBF) for the Undisputed HW championship.

Who wins?

Foreman starts landing that jab early, and that puts him in his shell the way Buster Douglas did. McCall has his moments, but Foreman wins a clear 9-3. That's if McCall didn't quit.

McCall won Holmes pretty comfortably, the controversy was blown from nothing. Foreman was losing to Moorer and Schulz, he caught the chinny Moorer and was awarded a win instead of the deserved loss vs Schulz. I see it, as McCall at that point was enough good to outbox Foreman and obviously enough durable to withstand George's power.

McCall by dec 116-112.

Unless McCall has a mental breakdown I think he can decision Foreman by this point.
