    In weight making terms Bob Jack Dillon could compete from super middleweight or perhaps even middleweight upward. His power would carry all the way up to heavyweight potentialy.

    If you managed him today how would you plan his career?

    Where dose he start and where dose he hopefully end up?

    Dillon was about 5 '7'',so maybe Super Middle.Him and Qawi would be a tear up.

    While super middle would definitely be a good weight for him I think that the curent light heavyweight division would provide abundant oportunities.

    He could chase Chad Dawson for the WBC belt for example.

    No doubt about it Dillon was a great fighter,he could clean up on a lot of 175 pounders today.

    With David Haye out of the way it might even be worth him chasing a belt at cruiser.
