Top 10 Fastest Heavyweights ATM

[-Swizzy-]

This should cause some controversy.. My choices certainly will.. Here goes....

1. Muhummad Ali
2. Noel Quarless (bring it on!)
3. Mike Tyson
4. Roy Jones jnr
5. Floyd Patterson
6. Tony Tubbs
7. Gene Tunney
8. Joe Louis
9. Jack Johnson
10. Rocky Marciano (Just shades it from Dempsey)

I look forward to reading your opinions, Regards MM

first off, I don't know if roy jones should even be on the list but if you are going to put him in, wtf is he doing at #4? Jones EASILY is the fastest on that list even as a hw. and I wouldn't even put Marciano on my top 50 fastest hw list. that is one random list for sure.

Agreed. He has the speed and the hunger which is needed and is going to be a real big shock to the people that doubt him.

You know ya speed, hence ya moniker.. That's what it's all about! Respect, MM

david haye top 10

When Roy was at Heavyweight, he was the fastest Heavyweight of his time. You should take him off of there if he's not going to be number 1. Other than that, good list.

One of the greateast speedsters of all time but he was only there (briefly) on the strength of 1 McDonalds.. I'm pretty sure that if he'd acclimatized & stayed there, he'd have less defeats on his record... Agreed?

Doesn't "ATM" mean "At The Moment"?

Guess he meant IMO

Ali was the fastest with single punches, Patterson was the fastest combination puncher.

To be honest I don't see it with Quarless. He wasn't that fast.

Here are his two best performances:





Here's "Dynamite" Dokes handling John L. Gardner:



Also Rocky Marciano shouldn't be anywhere near the top 10. He was quite slow compared to the fastest heavyweights. Even Walcott, Moore and Charles were beating him to the punch all the time.

He was just very persistent and waited until the later rounds when his foes would slow down to land his own punches.

Yeah... My mistake, got cash on the brain at the moment, but no one ever seems to pull up the people that can't spell Jack ****..
