    Danny Hodge - While only having a pro record of about 8-2 I believe in the pros he was undefeated in his short amateur boxing career winning the Golden Gloves but it wasn't his best sport. He also happens to be one of the best collegiate wrestlers ever being a three time NCAA Champion, Olympic silver medalist in Freestyle wrestling and having a trophy named after him which is awarded to the nation's best college wrestler. He was never beaten in college, never taken down in college, had incredible grip strength, knew submissions, had his fair share of street fights and could beat heavyweights while only weighing 180-190 pounds in his prime.

    The usual suspects like Foreman, Liston and Tyson always come up in this kind of conversation, but I'd pick Danny Hodge over any of them in a street fight with the most difficult being Tyson due to his speed.
