Dude, I could go into more detail if I could remember FF7 better, but quite frankly, I watched my parents play it a few times when I was a kid. I remember shit like him pretty much oneshotting a giant monster in a flashback, and then later in the game, he oneshots your entire party (which is supposed to happen, story-wise). Part of his badassness comes from the fact that he's not entirely human. He has DNA from an ancient god in him. That's why he has an angel wing.

And he was already a badass in Crisis Core, which takes place at least 4 years before FF7. In Crisis Core, there's a cutscene with a flashback of Sephiroth fighting Genesis, and that was just a friendly spar. And that was before he found out what he is and got his angel wing thing going on.

I dunno how his defense is (though, I do know he has a fucking lot of HP), but his attack is way up there.
