The largest in appearance has to be the Hungarian Giant House Pigeon as they are crested, have muffed feet and are somewhat loose or long feathered which adds to their already immense appearance. They can weigh 2 pounds or more. I believe they are also claimed to be the heaviest domestic pigeon.
There are several other breeds that are all very near or equal to the 2 pound weight as well. The Runt, Carneau, Show King, French Mondaine and Giant American Crest all come to mind as being around this size
