    Harold Johnson had some success at heavyweight, beating Charles, Nino Valdes and Machen, he doesn’t have the power to keep Leon Spinks off, but could he simply stay away and outbox him? I feel he could, stick a versatile jab on him, and when Leon lunges, step back and tie him up, simple boxing.

    I think Johnson has a good chance yes.
