    I don't think any of them could make the jump into boxing now. If any of them, I'd say Jon Jones since he's still pretty young and he has a good frame for heavyweight. His boxing skills aren't the best, but heavyweight is pretty weak and he's 6'4 with a massive wingspan.

    Definitely none, otherwise they would be headlining boxing events for multi-millions rather than molesting one another on the canvas for peanuts.

    Would say orlovsky back in the day could have been alright. Very good standing up and punching, terrible chin though

    None of those guys, completely different sport. It's like asking which boxer would do well in MMA. Any top guy who goes to other sport will get raped. From what I've seen boxers who've done MMA go in there with an agreement it will remain standing except for Toney. He actually thought he could do MMA. :rofl
