    Yes I'm extremely very happy I didn't have to spar with McCall. I never actually saw him spar while he was preparing for his fights vs (I assume) Marion Wilson, Wallace McDaniel, and Darroll Wilson. But he definently was working his ass off in the gym and we definently have local heavyweights/cruiserweights that come in and would have given him some good work, so I suppose he just worked with them whenever he could.

    Jonathan Hagler is probably our best local heavyweight at the moment he's 19-3 and has fought against some pretty good competition considering NC ain't Nevada, California, New Jersey, or New York when it comes to boxing talent. He's fought Shane Cameron (I'm sure he's big with you Aussies), Chazz Witherspoon, and he's done ok with them. He's 6'4 and a southpaw and I believe if memory serves me correct Clarence Tillman (Tillman78 for those that remembered him) used to spar with him as well. Also the main guy I sparred with Paul Jeanette a cruiserweight probably gave McCall some sparring.

    That would be cool. While I was going to the gym regularly this guy came in who i'd not seen before and was quite big. He hit the bags like it was a red headed stepson and his footwork and technique great. As I was one of the bigger guys there at the time I just kept hoping there would be no sparring that night. Thankfully none. Asked around and he had apparently fought pro at H/W with 10 wins.

    Shane Cameron is from New Zealand not Australia. I know him as I am a boxing fan but he's not know widely.

    Oh my bad re: Shane Cameron.

    Former 154 pund champ Aaron 'Superman' Davis also frequents the gym I go to. It's pretty cool considering how far away from the boxing mecca's I am

    Good for Oliver with the victory over Hopoate. Mccall still has decent power and 1 of the best chins ever. I would not mind seeing the old man get 1 last shot at glory with a bigger name heavyweight.
