    Power - Vitali Klitschko
    Heart - Evander Holyfield

    Worst

    Mind - Oliver McCall
    Chin - Wladimir Klischko
    Speed - Nikolay Valuev
    Jab - George Foreman
    Power - Leon Spinks
    Heart - Sonny Liston
    Foreman's jab the weakest ?? you have to be kidding me ?? Foreman had very good jab in his 2nd career.

    Anyway heres my list.

    Longevity = Joe Louis
    Jab = Larry Holmes
    Footwork = Muhammad Ali
    Combinations = Mike Tyson
    Speed = Floyd Patterson
    Power = Earnie Shavers
    Heart = Evander Holyfield
    Chin = George Foreman In His 2nd Career

    But IMO you just need Mike Tyson with Rocky Marciano's heart.
    Or Muhammad Ali with Earnie Shavers Power.

    And you have two complete Heavyweights.

    Thanks ICB for using Shavers in your list, I mentioned him earlier in the post.
