    Michael Dokes was pretty fast. So was Greg Page, Tony Tubbs, Tony Tucker, Mitch Green, James Tillis, and Renaldo Snipes. But none was in Ali's league.

        Ali's the fastest heavyweight I've ever seen. As far as natural. Handspeed and he could move.

            Possibly Ezzard Charles.

                Chris Byrd has pretty good handspeed, although he didn't start as a heavyweight he still stayed there for a long time..

                    Floyd Patterson had fantastic handspeed for a heavyweight, right up there with Clay/Ali.

                    I can't think of anyone else who comes close - the modern day giants are much bigger and stronger, but their hands are definitely slower as well...
