Calvin Brock W10 Jameel McCline... Just a few months after working as Jameel McCline's sparring partner, heavyweight Calvin Brock defeated his former employer to become a legitimate heavyweight contender. Brock, undefeated and rated #20 by Boxingtalk, was cut over his eye in the first round and knocked down in the seventh, but the Las Vegas judges awarded him a unanimous decision by scores of 96-94, 96-93 and 97-93. The fight was extremely close, as several rounds could have gone either way and some ringsiders thought McCline, Boxingtalk #7, could have won.  Although there was a lot of holding, the seventh round brought the crowd to its feet, as Brock went down from a hard left but got up and won the remainder of the round, perhaps making it only a 10-9 round for McCline.Â
