    I'd say both Silva and Arvloski. Both have a boxing backround.

      Andrei Arlovski gets my vote big time. He's big, he's jacked, and he's got some knockout power and he's also a European Heavyweight and we all know how dominating they have been recently

        If you put him in the mix with the current HW fighters, how would he fare against the Klitschko Bros and Valuev?

          He'd get knocked out because he's not a boxer. I'd have to see him actually box in a boxing match and not in an MMA match. He has the tools to be a good boxer but tools dont gaurentee success

            His chin is garbage.

            What a joke.

              Arlovski lost a stand up fight to Tim Sylvia. I don't think he would do well against a good boxer.

                Agreed.

                I voted for Anderson Silva, he's got quick hands and good reflexes. I doubt any of them would fair very well against an elite boxer in a boxing match though....

                  I say Kimbo only because his MMA skills are wack and he's essentially a boxer anyway. I think he beats all the rest in a boxing match.
