[Shamrock]

Speed - Ali
Jab - Larry Holmes
Power - Sonny Liston
Heart - Floyd Patterson - anyone who gets up six times in a fight is either very brave or very stupid !!!

I tried to pick some different fighters but speed - Ali and jab - Holmes there were not really any other choices.

[GAME]

Mind - Lennox Lewis
Chin - Oliver Mcall
Speed - Ali
Jab - Larry Holmes
Power - Tyson
Heart - Holyfield

I think that fighter would have everything covered .

[Dark Lord Al]

Mind - Lennox Lewis
Chin - Oliver Mcall
Speed - Ali
Jab - Larry Holmes
Power - Tyson
Heart - Holyfield

I think that fighter would have everything covered .

Pretty close to my way of thinking id just swap -
Power to Foreman.

I was gonna pick Foreman . It was between them two. I just thought of Tysons ferocity and Foremans plodding and that was the clincher for me.

The Foreman who destroyed Frazier was no plodder , and in my opinion would have eaten a prime Tyson(1986 ) alive.

[El Kabong]

Just take Joe Louis and George Foreman and mix them together

[brucelee]

Still Tyson is number 1 for me.Muhammad Ali next and Foreman 3rd.

Its a tough 1 to call IMO . Theres a chance that Foremans brute force would make Tyson crumble but on the other side of the coin . Tyson was far quicker and Foreman has been decked by guys like Lyle and Ali

I think George was just too open, he spent a lot of his earlier fight days with his hands by he waist not even thinking about defence and swinging those massive hooks in, don't get me wrong if one landed you are in big trouble but I think Tyson in his prime would have been too quick and put his punches together too well. Speed, Power and accuracy beat brute strength and power any day for me.

[The Fightfan]

I didn't see workrate so I'll add it. Marciano and Frazier and for the chin David Tua has to be up there.

[The Fightfan]

Another thing that's funny who probably has one of the worst chins Wladimir Klitschko who has one of the best chins Vitali Klitschko.

It's the little things in life that amuse me.

Tua did get knockout in the amateurs by Felix Savon though, and was down against Rahman, although not hurt. McCall was Tyson's cheif sparring partner and apparently has never been on the canvas in the ring or in the gym, thats tough

Have to agree with the work rate, Frazier was a machine, that boy just kept coming

[boozeboxer]

Earnie Shavers would be power for me.
