    Conn has an absolutley excellent chance. I would perhaps favour him if the fight was at 168.

    168 - Conn
    160 - probably Monzon

    Billy is a horrible match up for monzon, as monzon doesnt like movers, but at middle i still think monzon finds a way to win

    I would go along with conventional wisdom.

    At MW - Monzon,

    At LHW - Conn.

    Sure & safe.
