    Out of all the heavyweight champions you've seen on film, who are the top 5 that you think would be the hardest for you to fight? And why?

    Did you study the likes of Archie Moore and Ken Norton when developing cross guard? What do you think of these fighters and their application of said guard?

    Were there any big fights that you almost got in the 90s? It seemed like you were on the verge.

    Hello again. This is an odd question.

    According to this website (http://www.thesuperstars.org/athletes/witherspoon.html), you competed in a competition called "Superstars" in 1986. The competition apparently matched various types of athletes against each other, in running, lifting, swimming, bicycle races, and all kinds of other skills.

    Is that correct? Did you really compete in the Superstars competition in 1986? Or did they get it wrong?

    Hopefully you have the time to get to this, but if not, no worries. And thanks again.

    I'm sure you would have champ. Consistency, boxing skill, power, and resilience were all on your side.
