    I should better explain my combination, Patterson with Marciano's chin/durability and power, Marciano with Patterson's combinations and speed, a relentless inside power master like Marciano was but at any given point he can make a small bit of space and get off Patterson combinations, this combination has more speed and power than Tyson, would dominate technical inside guys like Frazier and Holyfield, I think they could even beat Ali, the only appropriate war is maybe with a Foreman Bowe

    Ali's toughness, speed
    and movement in his prime, with Joe Louis offensive skills and power..
    Unbeatable....... That combinations Championship run would be,,,,,,,,,, Very boring and predictable.

    Foreman-Tyson would be a pretty good bet.

    You think Marciano had more power than Tyson? I'm not so sure about that. Otherwise, this is an interesting combination for the fighting styles. I didn't initially think of Patterson for a thread like this because Tyson is fairly close to Patterson with chin and power upgrades.

    So Foreman gets Tyson's speed and combo throwing ability? That would be pretty mean.

    Yup and lets not forget, Mikes superior biomechanics will make for very accurate hand heavy punching. They get my vote, hands down!

    Pernell Whitaker with the freakish power of Julian Jackson

    I’ve got this thread covered.

    Nikolai Valuev, Size, strength, durability.

    Joe Louis, Speed, Power, Style, Brain, Corner, Stamina.

    I literally don’t think you can get any better. Maybe, weird choice James Toney and Valuev…. jeez. Give Nikolai the skills of cruiser James Toney he never loses.

    My two buddies Pugguy and Journeyman92, any combination of these two would be unstoppable.

    How about combining the very best of Joe Bugner and Jimmy Young?

    Oops, I misread the premise - I thought it asked for an “Unwatchable Force”.

    Well, “Hello Daddy!”, please scratch my overly tender Milton The Monster creation.

    Nailed it Rich. I see it ran from 65 to 68. Before my time, but I saw the re-runs in the 70s - the toons from your own childhood always stay with you.
