It would have been a great matchup, and dangerous for both fighters. I think that McCall probably would have stopped him. I dont think Tyson could hurt him and that would probably discourage him. I would have loved to see this fight. Too late now though.The only thing theyd be fighting over today would be a crack pipe :-X Really i like em both though
McCall claimed it was 5 all; in knockdowns in sparring....
Tyson on points is my call. ;)
Tyson on points
Tyson by late stoppage
Tyson by stoppage, rather like the first Ruddock fight. Crackhead Oliver might have had a good chin but there is only so much of a beating a man can take before someone has no choice but to intervene.
If not by stoppage, Tyson wins a lopsided unanimous decision.
Tyson never really stoppped guys late. It was early or not at all. Tyson would win a decision if anything, but not lopsided
Easily Tyson on points, Mcall dosen't have the tools to beat a prime Tyson
No way would Mcall beat Tyson in prime Tyson, i think Tyson would knock him out in 4 or 5.
I think McCall's chin would have probably held up, he had a damn good chin, but Mike was much better and would have won an easy UD
might be a fight like the bonecrusher one. mccall would have talked it up good but would ultimately be in survival mode to lose a decision
Prime Tyson anililates McCall. KO 3/4.
I dont know. Lewis, Bruno, Tucker, Norris, Maskaev, douglas couldnt. Not so sure Tyson could.Quote:

Prime Tyson VS prime McCall would be a TKO or UD for Tyson . . . But today Tyson VS McCall would be a UD for McCall . . .

Now they would just sit in the middle of the ring and smoke crack!

The performance of 40 - 41 McCall was not bad VS DaVarryl Williamson,Przemyslaw Saleta and Juan Carlos Gomez . . .
His old but know still how to fight like Akinwande . . .
Its not impossible that they have still a chance for become a Heavyweight champ . . . ;)
i think tysson would have ko'd him
Interesting cuz there are so many variables .
Tyson got sicouraged if his power didnt tell early on and Mcall wasnt the strongest mentally either . But he could bang
Lewis stopped Mcall picking his shots . Mike would be the type to go all out but he may punch himself out at the same time.Akinwandes the only guy ive ever seen floor Mcall and he wasnt considered a massive hitter .
Too close to call . Im sitting on the fence
Lewis stopped McCall cause McCall had a mental breakdown. Never was he hurt in that fight though. He just ceased fire and let Lewis do what he wanted. Good assesment thoughQuote:

Reason Gomez fight was changed was because Gomez urine sample came out green (he flunked it).Quote:
