    Herol Graham was elite level who didn’t have much luck. Chris Eubank wouldn’t fight him because he knew he had no chance. Mike McCallum also a legendary fighter. Two close fights with James Toney. A lapse in concentration and show boating against Julian Jackson cost Graham the fight.

    He wasn't a good fighter. He was a good boxer only at the professional level He had decent boxing skills but not the physicality or stamina for world class professional boxing, hence the good European record which is easy to pad up. Against both Jackson, who was just a hitter, and the 33 year old McCallum, he'd had enough and was slowing after 3 rounds. You can't win a middlewieight world title bouncing around like Mr Bean directing traffic for 3 rounds. You have to produce some power punches at some stage.

    This is the kind of commentary I like. Let people watch the fight then talk after. Brilliant. I had this a draw. Herold like Naseem, was a strange mix of amateurish and very sleek.when both his upper body and lower body are working in tandem he was the sleekest. It’s when their bottom half stops moving when they struggle, the head to upright with very little movement is an easy target. We saw this with Barrera vs Hamed.

    We always lament the fights McCallum never had vs the big 4 champions. But look how many good fighters he faced and alltime hall of fame fighters he faced. He was obviously too old in his last 2 fights vs Roy Jones and his final fight vs Toney to have a chance to win. Prior to those fights McCallum had 11 fights vs good to great champions and his record in those fights was 7-3-1. He beat Curry-McCrory-Graham-Steve Collins-Julian Jackson and Michael Watson. He split 2 fights with Kalambay. He had 2 razor close fights with James Toney an alltime great who was 11 1/2 years younger than him! One of the alltime greats not just one of the best of an era.

    In 1987 when Graham was mandatory? Hagler was old and had declined enormously by that point. He looked vulnerable against Mugabe and all but shot in 1987. There's a decent chance that even that Hagler would have caught up with Graham at some point but I think he'd have looked bad doing it, and it definitely wouldn't have been within the first four rounds.

    Graham got robbed. McCallum barely landed if you look close. First 5-6 rounds were Graham's easily except 3 and part of round 4. As far as I'm concerned he won most of the later rounds too. McCallum being the aggressor and pushing the action doesn't mean you win, when none of the punches are actually landing.
