    Montell Griffin. Antonio Tarver. Bernard Hopkins. Michael Moorer.

    Of course I don't know if we can consider these fighters active. Perhaps Glen Johnson? I honestly don't think any boxer would stand a chance and only a volume punching power puncher type would have a good chance.

    Dirrell wouldn't stand a chance. Ward would get knocked out unless he has a worldclass chin. Remember Roy Jones was knocking people out with body shots and had supernatural powers.

    Chad Dawson might give him the most trouble, but prime RJ beats him by a UD. Too fast and would beat Bad Chad to the punch all night. It'd be like 9 rounds to 3 or 8 to 4 for RJ. If RJ got lazy he might of gotten dropped by an Adamek or Dawson, but RJ would still win by a decision.

    :yep Yes Toney would beat them all too, but he'd struggle abit more, perhaps with Dawson's jab. Ward, Dirrell, Bute, AA, Kessler, Froch, they all lost to a prime Toney or Jones.
