top 5 fastest fighters

I don't have to say anything. That speaks for itself. But most here already know you're a joke and your opinions are comical.

Funny how only idiots always thrash my opinions...that only makes me feel better about myself.

It's funny how only idiots make asinine statements like you do. "Delahoya a better boxer and p4p fighter than Sugar Ray Leonard." If that makes you feel better about yourself, carry on.

Here is a shout out to the quickest handed fighter I've ever seen, Fast Eddie Hopson. Too bad his chin didn't allow him to get on a bigger stage to showcase it.

I'm also surprised nobody has mentioned Cassius Clay, by far the fastest heavyweight ever.

Joan Guzman was a freak. Unfortunately he never really learned to box and liked to eat mucho food...

I might be biased but from what I have seen of Gary Russell Jr. in the gym he appears to be the speed king currently.

So was I,..... Pancho Villa was much faster...... Bantamweight Carruthers...... what is this ?????....... Old time fighters didn't have the same speed as today's...... I'd like to see your thesis on that...... A LHW compared to Villa in H2H speed.......... I will await this thesis on how that's possible..... was Joe louis faster than Willie PeP ??

No thesis necessary. It pretty simple, just because a man "can" be faster doesn't "make" him faster.

For you to say that the smaller fighters are faster just because they're smaller is silly, just like your reply to my post.

If you think Villa should be on the list, then add him to your list and leave mine alone.

I've only seen Russell Jr. fight a couple times but I didn't see the blinding Roy Jones like speed everyone was talking about.

Are there any Youtube clips of Gary that show off his speed in the ring?

Indeed I am........ there are many small fighters with blinding speed,.... I have a scientific basis for my opinion..... what's yours ??

and Jimmy Carruthers wasn't that fast at all

Yuriorkis Gamboa.
