Top 5 fastest boxers of all time?

[SBleeder]

the 1980's and 1990's are not old school there are very recent, old school goes back to 1866 at least.

Anyway your trolling is pathetic 3/10. Was a good discussion tho the 3 is for picking an interresting topic to troll from.

1866 huh. So Paddy Ryan was a modern fighter? Thanks for the info.

Zab Judah for all his other faults was among the fastest I've ever seen. Faster than most listed.

Leonard
130 Mayweather
Judah
Jones
Taylor
Ali
Camacho

There's too many though. Too hard to compare. You've also got guys like Paccquiao, Gamboa, Rigo, Guzman....and about a million others that I'm forgetting

[Twako]

aside from what others have said, i think martinez has quick handspeed too. his punches often come all the way from when his hands are down.

Great shout on Howard Davis Jr.

Awful shout on Willie Pastrano.

Haha, Pastrano gets blasted by Iron Dan again..... Any particular reason lol!? Nah in fairness i dont think he was worth a shout in this category either

[Dynamite76]

Ray Leonard
Howard Davis Jr.
Bernard Taylor
Hector Camacho
Meldrick Taylor.

Roy Jones jr at 160 was the quickest fighter i've ever seen - just edging a prime mike tyson ( who is extremely overlooked for speed for some reason).
Meldrick Taylor was extremely fast, Manny Pacquaio too, but recently speed wise (but not as good as the previous names i mentioned obviously) Gary Russell Jr is definitely up there.

Mr. Herol Graham is surely worth a very respectful nod.....super, super quick and perfected that uniquely unconventional, slippery/elusive style that suggested the Ingle gym was not based in gritty, freezing Yorkshire but Havana or Miami.

Danced around the nasty, heavy-fisted Mark Kaylor and was way too fast for the quality Julian Jackson before ******ly tangoing his way onto a landmine.

Prince Naz came out of the same gym and he was a speedster as well.

There are different kinds of speed. Hamed was fast but he aint in any top 5 lists.

I see nobody mention pernell so I assume most people are only talking handspeed because his reflexes and ability to slip shots are among the best ever.

RJJ was both, hand speed and reflexes. And for his size too it was insane.
