Inspired by the Tyson thread, anyone wanna play, ‘the greatest of all time’? Pick your heavyweight, match him against the next posters choice, let the arguments commence, winner decided by majority vote (with a winning argument) and on to the next round until there’s one man standing.

heavyweight

This adjective means nothing unless accompanied by a noun. Best guess, that noun is boxer. It could just as easily be an unkind slang reference to a morbidly obese person.

That leaves us with "of".
