    Say that RJJ comes into the ring weighing 176-185 lbs against these guys. How does he do?

    Even Rex Layne? I'd need to see that to believe it.

    Rex was a slow-twitch plodder who hated to train. Roy catches him until he is gone.

    What about the other ones? Surely you don't think he could survive that gauntlet undefeated?

    Yeah, I know. It took a lot of reflection and contemplation but I'm going to pick Roy to waste the lot.

    I would favor him to beat all those dudes. Some might give him a fight though.

    Rex Layne had the punching power to put RJJ to bed.

    I don't know about "easily". He'd definitely have to put in a lot of effort.
