    Holyfield maybe, although he could have leaky defense and didn't always stick to the game plan. He had good but not great power and good overall speed and great form with everything he threw. A swiss army knife.

    Joe Louis did everything right with an A+ rating but had slow feet and had an ok chin but made up for it with good recovery.

    I love Holmes but I don't get how people think he checks off for the power rating. I'd give him a 6/10 at best.

    I'm gonna have to go with Holyfield. Just a solid well rounded guy who was always in shape and had tons of heart.

    Joe Louis, but just because he's the most well rounded, there are people I would pick to beat him
