If you watch tyson before his fight with henry tillman amateur fight and the pinklon thomas fight, you see tyson bouncing on his toes a bit and doing a bit of dancing , its very hard to gauge how quick he could move because he dose it in a confined space . Did anyone else notice this before those fights ? .
What heavyweight footspeed could be compared with alis ? .

Tyson did have the potential to be a very fast footed fighter. His Cus D'amato style doesnt allow that to be seen, he was always moving forward. The first fight he got backed up in was against James Douglas, and look what happened.Comment

Roman greenberg quicker than ali you have got to be kidding me and to the guy who says that james tillis is the quickest fighter on his feet since ali , I have seen tillis and tyson in an exhibition fight and tillis gets up on his toes and tries to do an ali on tyson and outrun him but tyson is too quick on his feet and cuts the ring down and boxes tillis ears off for the next 4 rounds .Comment

Holyfield faster on his feet than tyson i dont think so . Holyfield said before the lewis tyson fight that tyson was better equipped to beat lewis than him because tyson was much quicker on his feet and prime tyson was also much quicker on his feet than larry holmes , but a young ali was much quicker on his feet than prime tyson .Comment
