Mike McCallum, a former professional boxer from Jamaica, is known for his exceptional skills in the ring. Competing from 1981 to 1997, he held world championships in three weight classes, demonstrating his versatility and talent. With titles in the WBA super welterweight, middleweight, and WBC light heavyweight divisions, McCallum established himself as a formidable force in boxing. Renowned for his durable chin and relentless body punches, he earned the nickname “The Bodysnatcher” and was never stopped in any of his five losses. Inducted into the International Boxing Hall of Fame in 2003, McCallum’s legacy as a top middleweight titleholder is solidified by his eighth ranking on The Ring magazine’s list of the best in the last 50 years.
