Patterson was explosive and hard-hitting, but the majority of those five had an ability to use their size and range. Wilder is the weakest of them all. I can see Patterson closing in with him and blowing him out. Vitali and Joshua also were more flawed, than the remaining two. Patterson could have real chances against Joshua. It's a bit different case with Vitali, because even if Patterson would get to him, Vitali's freakish chin would take it. Patterson would also KO Wlad for sure, if he landed on Wlad's shaky chin, but Wlad was too good at keeping at the end of the jab and surpressing his opponents in close with clinching. So, I would still favor Wlad over Floyd. And Fury is the best out of all the five. He can keep shorter fighters on the distance, he can overpower smaller fighters inside, he can take a punch. A very bad matchup for the likes of Patterson.

Floyd Patterson never weighed over 200lbs. How could he beat these big guys? THESE guys weigh in more than 240lbs. They will have at least 50lbs over Patterson.
