who do ya'll think had the best reflexes in boxing

Who has the best reflexes in boxing? In this generation, Floyd Mayweather is atop of the list. Or Roy Jones Jr. in his prime. Before these two, I'd have to say "Sugar Ray Robinson. These guys were all untouchabale. Mayweather still is for the time being.

Whitaker and Prince Naz deserve a mention but if i have to pick out one man it would be Roy Jones jr.

Has to be Jones Jr. The guy was a freak.

Wilfred Benitez, Ali and Mayweather

Roy Jones Jr had the most naturally fast reflexes. props to you for not saying Chris Eubank :D

SRL Jones,Jr. Ali top three for sure

Ali, Whitaker, Benitez and Jones Jr. My goodness, those four were pretty much untouchable in their respective primes.

The puerto Rican Dean of Defense early in his career: WBenitez. He slipped punches by scant millimeters before unleashing counters. Some fans thought of his style as a tad boring but experts widely agree that he raised defense and counter-offensive close to the level of Performing Arts. Willie Pep, of course. And, Nicolino Locche of Argentina, who ruled the Jr. Welters from Dec. 1968 to late 72. He lost only 4 fights and KOd only 17 of his 117 victims, relying all throughout on his defensive instincts and peppery, albeit, light punches, all products of his extra-ordinarily quick reflexes. He was dubbed, "The Untouchable." All in no particular order. ;)

Actually, if im honest. I need my Naz memory refreshed. Its been a while.

Absolute nonsense. Hamed looked absolutely awful after he stopped training, similar to Tyson after Spinks. Hamed looked so much slower it was unreal, a joke. According Naz, in his words, Ingle NEVER really trained him. He always fought with his own skills and natural reflexes. Im sure ur rite, he did look bad after Robinson. But to me it seems a very easy excuse to say, he stopped training, and give his opponents no credit whatsoever. Who did he fight before Robinson that is of note?? Are u saying he stopped training as soon as he became world champion?? He became world champion, fought some mexicans no one has ever heard of. Then when he fought decent fighters (decent, not great) he was caught with shots. I just think that with his style, and the confusion of his opponents he didnt necessarily prove that his reflexs were anything great, but his awkward flashy style made him look great. Most of the time he was at distance, with a very wide stance. His opponents couldnt get near him. Great reflexes? Nothing special. Duran was twice as good.

roy jones jr...then mayweather and prince naseem hamed

Before he fought world class opposition. Before he was exposed. Absolute nonsense. Hamed looked absolutely awful after he stopped training, similar to Tyson after Spinks. Hamed looked so much slower it was unreal, a joke.

Early Herol Graham was untouchable (literally), nobody could lay a glove on him. In terms of punch stats, it's hands down Herol Graham.. because he never got hit. Most avoided fighter ever. 1994/95 Naseem Hamed (before he stopped training) was on a different planet to anybody else in boxing, and Roy Jones Jr was anybody else. But Roy Jones was born with exceptionally fast reflexes. Before he fought world class opposition. Before he was exposed.

I also say Ali, Whitaker, and Jones. Leonards movement was great, but he was hit. Yet it was so damn hard to lay a solid shot on Whitaker. Just watch the DeLa Hoya fight. Oscar was a very fast, big puncher with a good reach, and he hardly caught Whitaker cleanly through 12 rounds. Unbelievable reflexes.

naseem hamed when he was under Brendan Ingle as Ingle trained him to exell in what came naturally. any doubters should watch the Robinson fight as this was his true prime. And who was Robinson??? When Naseem stepped up his oppostion....he got put on the seat of his fancy dancing pants!! Not once, but several times. He didnt fall over, he was KD. By three different fighters in a short in his "prime".

Floyd Mayweather

Herol Bomber Graham. He used to have a party trick were he would pay people money if they could land one shot on him in a round (public) Maybe he should have paid Julian Jackson?

RJJ, without a doubt, not a single thing in my brain says otherwise. In his prime his reflexes surpassed any other fighter's reflexes.

Pernall Whitaker, hands down, the guy could fight with his feet glued to the floor and no one could hit him. he was probably the most elusive fighter ever, at least in the top 5 of most elusive fighters ever!!!!! and he fought everyone he never ducked anybody, he took on all challengers......
