My vote definitely goes to Mas Oyama. Kano comes in second. Helio comes in third.
Oyama also trained in Judo and should be able hang with Kano in grappling long enough to knock him out. Also, Oyama's style produced fighters like Andy Hug, Francisco Filho, and Glaube Feitosa.
Helio already lost to Kimura, so he comes in third. I know Kimura isn't Kano, but Kimura is the best comparison we have for the sake a hypothetical vs fight.
I think Kimura should be there instead of Kano though. Kimura was the one who took judo to the next level.
I saw the video of Oyama fighting the bull. Oyama definitely comes in first.
