    So here's a more interesting question, since it came up in the thread: if Leon Spinks was on his best night, is there any ATG (besides mummified versions) that he would have a reasonable chance of beating?

    Mm. Probably. But would Spinks have a decent chance? Say 40%, even?

    Agreed. Patterson was very underrated.
