Roy Jones: "I'm Faster Than Mayweather"

[-Swizzy-]

That 3 punch combo he hit Hanshaw with was so fast it was still hard to see in slow motion.

what round did he do that in?

[Fox McCloud]

Not gonna lie... the 5 jabs that Jones threw in about a second and a half against Pazienza are faster than anything I have ever seen Mayweather do with his hands.

I'm not sure that automatically translates into a victory though.

[-Swizzy-]

I think Mayweather is faster.

so very glib. you clearly haven't seen jones jr fight. just watch a couple of his youtube highlights and a couple of rounds of some of this fights and you will quickly change your mind.

what round did he do that in?

about 1:35 into the 11th round... which just makes it more impressive a 38 1/2 yr old fighter still has ******ed hand speed in the 11th round

It really depends on what you are looking for though.

Faster at getting his fist to the target? Now there is a decent debate.

Faster at throwing more than one punch at a time? There are plenty of fighters who are faster than Mayweather at this, including one of the fastest combination punchers of all-time... ROY JONES JR.

roy is arguably = to SRL at combo punching

[Fox McCloud]

After he knocks Pazienza down twice. The comvination that he throws to get Pazienza out of there is... perfect doesn't even describe how good it was.

yeah I just saw it about 1:58 into the 11th. wow that is sick...just sick.

[THE REED]

yeah the entire arena was ear piercing when he did it... they just chanted.. ROY! ROY! ROY! ROY!

describing it doesnt do it justice

[-Swizzy-]

he should do that all the time. why does he take the fight to the distance. he could ko every oponent. the only knock I got on him is that, his lazyness.
