    No one.
    Jones Jr. Would probably have the best chance, but Bob Foster also has the best chance of ko'ing him early, like in the first 5 rds. Prime vs prime.

    Foster didnt really have the best chin himself I would say Hearns had a good shot. Greb definitely did as well.

    I like Byrd a lot, Foster would probably still win.

    I'd take a 168 pound Marvin Hagler to have a great shot. Calzaghe maybe? Roy Jones definitely at 168.

    RJJ had the speed to maybe avoid getting bombed out of there.

    1946 Ezzard Charles fought as low as 169 and would have made 168 in a canter. He also beat Moore, Marshall, Oakland Billy Smith and Jimmy Bivins inside a 6 month period. Talk about on a goddamn tear. He's my first draft pick.
