    Upon reconsideration, I choose 3 Valuevs. Nobody is going to get past that wall, and they are all scary-looking ex-bouncers who seem like reasonable chaps in person.

    Mind you, I don't know how the bar reacts to the Nightmare Triplets suddenly entering with me. But I'm guessing I'd at least avoid a barfight.

    Sonny Liston, Rocky Marciano and Joe Hipp.

    I'm walking out just fine.

    Golata, Tyson and Holyfield.

    No one is getting near me unless they either want to get headbutted, get triple shotted to the nuts or get their ears bitten off.

    To be a little unorthodox I would pick Tex Cobb, Charles Kid McCoy, and Sam McVea.

    Top Boxer/Fighter types, not just great Ring men, but noted as Street Tough Hardmen too.

    Jack Dempsey, Jock McAvoy, Roberto Duran and a Tex Cobb.
