agility-flexibility - muhammad ali
hand speed - muhammad ali
punching power - early mike tyson
chin - george foreman
jab - larry holmes
physical shape - lennox lewis for size, strength/marciano for cardio fitness
hook - frazier
cross - lennox lewis
uppercuts - lennox lewis
mentality - later career foreman
heart - holyfield

Who could beat him? 6'5 with 84 inch reach, 245lb, massively powerful, doesn't huff and puff late in fights, takes massive blows without looking dazed, but jabs and moves so well he hardly takes any blows anyway. Forget his heart, he's never going to see the canvas anyway!

That was my dilema. I took Mike for the who crazy chaotic thing. Kinda added to the stare. Early stage George Foreman got a distant third in this race.

I don't know who would have won that one. I think as long as Cus was in Mike's corner he could beat nearly any heavy of any era. Who knows. Both were mean and could bomb. Maybe first one to land the bomb wins that one.

have mike tyson knock-up layla ali a few times. this union should spawn many fast, light on their feet, hard-hitting, cocky, well coordinated, iron-chinned off spring. who will unfortunately spend the majority fo their crime ridden lives in jail. thank you to mike tyson's gene donation.

Good point, I think anything is the whole massive afro area has to be a winner.
