Butterbean. underrated speed!

Tony Tubbs Buster Mathis (Senior)

Butter bean

kirk johnson eddie chambers sultan ibragimov tony tubbs chris arreola david tua some of these guys arent pure fatties but they could all use to lose at least 10 lbs in at least a few of their recorded fights

manny pacquiao

IDK if he qualifies as fat. He looked pretty fat in his last three fights. 240+ Especially the Long fight. I guess hes on the line.

Mathis was the first name I thought of. He was a big fat guy with fast hands and no power. Yes, and unlike the other fighters mentioned by the other posters, Buster Mathis was ALWAYS naturally fat, from childhood upwards. Different from a guy who trains down and comes in thin, but eats too much between fights and becomes too lazy to take it off, like James Toney. Not only very fast hands, but a very fast mover on his feet. Fast all round. He can probably be seen on Youtube.

I don't think that any of the fighters named until now are in the genuinely "FAT" class, except Butterbean. He's very fast for his monstrous size. But the REAL fastest genuinely fat fighter HAS to be BUSTER MATHIS, who beat Joe Frazier in the amateurs, mainly through speed, and did very well as a pro. There was another guy, who ALWAYS beat Jack Dempsey,-I think 3-4 times- in 4 rounders, who was supposed to be very fast, I can recall seeing a picture of him long ago and he looked fat. He was called FAT WILLIE MEEHAN. So there is a very eclectic choice for the Topic Starter right there. I think the answer would be BUSTER MATHIS. He was noted for his speed.

IDK, he still looks kind of soft even at 205 to me like of he really tried he could be a lean 188 or somewhere around that area. I don't think he can ever be 188...He may not be ripped from head to toe, but he just has a naturally big build. I think his body is kinda like Juan Diaz'. No matter what he does I think he's gonna look a little soft, but that doesn't mean he's fat or out of shape. http://box-club.ru/files/2010/03/4fa4ec5aa4ae793c6f172629a848f1dd-getty-97373400lb001_wladimir_klit.jpg ^^He's not anywhere near fat.

Tony Tubbs and Michael Dokes still had fast hands even when overweight. You took mine :grr:

James Toney is the only guy I can think of

When Eddie Chambers was weighing 226 pounds he was a chubby heavyweight...But the current 205 pound Eddie Chambers shouldn't be considered a fat heavyweight anymore. 6'1" 205 pounds isn't anywhere near fat.

umm no? where does this conclusion come from? He's misreading the thread title. "Fat" is key.

You guys seriously think Eddie Fucking Chambers has the fastest HW hands of all time? umm no? where does this conclusion come from?

Kevin Johnson

Solis Corrie Sanders Kirk Johnson Corrie Sanders was such a raw natural talent. Why he chose golf over boxing will always baffle me... He threw such straight powerful stiff punches. A great wasted talent.

I gotta watch some of his fights!!

this is terribly retarded most Klitschko nuthuggers hate Ali though, obviously because they know their idols are nowhere near Ali in terms of greatness What does Klitschko have to do with Ali? Just brought it up to instigate? Another bait post?
