    2 maybe 3 losses . Patterson , Williams and Machen could pull it off. Witherspoon just had too many off nights to lose only one here

    What if he was at his best for every one ? He did have some good streaks

    I'd still take Floyd to beat him, not confidently mind you.

    I favor him to win every fight by at least a healthy margin and think hes got just over or under a 50% chance of running the table depending how many rounds the fights are. Would be surprised if he lost more than 1 and would be shocked if he lost more than 2.

    Patterson, Folley, Cleveland Williams and Machen are the better 4 here with the former 2 having a substantially better chance than the latter 2.

    I got him over every single one as long as he's decently trained, he doesn't even have to be at his best. The Witherspoon who put Bruno to sleep would beat every guy here. The hardest fight I could see happening is him against the seasoned, post title version of Patterson, but even then, I don't see it in the cards for him to lose.

    At his best, he'd be a solid favorite over all of them for mine.

    Probably beats all, but I'll take Patterson to win a decision.

    On the night he knocked out Bruno, I favor him over Williams. Patterson? Witherspoon beats him, Tim is too strong. Witherspoon beats Machen by decision.
