    NAME a few title-less fighters who you believe has a chance against anybody in their weight class (all time).

    I'll start off with Doug Jones and Ruben Castillo.

    I thought this was a Roy Wallace threat. Damn.

    But I’ll go with Packey McFarland, Michael Watson and Howard Davis Jr for discussion purposes — not sure how many ATGs they beat but I think they can compete at that level.
