    Mind - Jack Johnson
    Chin - Chuvalo
    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.

    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.

    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
