    True. That's a true legend.
    I always wonder if Mike MCCallum would have eventually got a really big payday if he had stayed at the Kronk gym. True he would never have been the man with Tommy Hearns around, but....who knows.

          Dream Fight: Thomas Hearns vs. Mike McCallum
          Posted by admin on Aug 6, 2009 in Dream Fights |


          By Greg “Stats” Gorecky.

          This fight came about after intense negotiations. These two fighters were once stablemates at the famed Kronk Gym in Detroit Michigan. After getting very little recognition McCallum asked Emanuel Steward if he could fight Thomas Hearns, and Steward said, “Absolutely not.” So having no other alternative, as he was getting very little push at Kronk, McCallum decided to leave.

            I see you are a fan of the sweet science Yout.

            What you said is fact.
