Tyrell Biggs was Ali's equal in footspeed, and he had great handspeed and a decent flicking jab to boot. What he didn't have was the heart or chin of Ali, but I think one could make a case that his physical gifts/talents were not that far off from Ali's.Comment

Heavyweight that could match with Ali's footspeed, I'd have to go with Tyson's. As far as quickest at any weight, I'd have to go w/ Roy Jones Jr. , but have any of you guys, seen the pre-fight footage and highlights of " Prince" Naseem Hamed prior to fighting Kevin Kelley? He was shadow boxing in front of a camera in a darkened space w/ only a mirror in front of him, man that guy had some serious quickness it looked like he was ice skating, while doing his own version of the Ali shuffle.Comment
