I would say that Redguards and Orsimer are the best heavy fighters, with Nords close behind them. It's even stated multiple times in-game that Redguards are the most natural of the fighters in Tamriel, and Orsimer are known for their heavy armour, blunt weapon skill, and their ability to go berserk and kill everything in their paths. Nords are pretty tough, too, but the only things they really have going for them is their fanatacism for battle and their resistance to the cold.
