The fastest boxers of all time

Meldrick was the fastest fighter I've ever seen.
Roy and Ray were close, but Taylor clearly had the edge on them.
Meldrick would rip 8 or 9 shot combinations in the pocket in a matter of mere moments.
Ray Leonard is a close second, Jones I'd place in the top 5, at #5.
Roy basically liked to let rip with singular shots, or 1-2's. Occasionally he's bust a 3 or 4 shot combo, but never to the extent that Ray and Meldrick busted them out.Comment

you dumbasses must realize these other guys like meldrick taylor, and camacho are fighting at lower weights like 140 and yet most of these clips are of Jones from 160 and 168 and yet his hands still look quicker. Now THAT'S amazing. P4P Jones fastest of all time.Comment

You realize that Leonard fought Hagler at 160 at the end of his career after being already retired for 3 years still just about as fast while RJJ clips were during his prime. and you're callin who a dumbass??Comment

It's "fastest hands pound for pound".
Meaning, the fastest hands, with no particular quabble with weight issues.
Meldrick and Ray's handspeed were faster than Roy's.
In the time it took Roy to snap off 4 shots, Ray and Meldrick could snap off 8.Comment

Leonard at 160 looked "just about" as fast as RJJ at 168? Sounds to me like RJJ is head and shoulders above Leonard then.
Yes you're the dumbass then if you believe Leonard is superior to RJJ because of that idiotic 'evidence' you cited which actually proves my point more than it does yours.Comment

lol you ****** you don't know what pound for pound means do you?
Pound for Pound means the exact OPPOSITE of what you just said. If Leonard's hand speed at 140lbs was slightly faster than Roy Jones' speed at 168 (very slightly) that means P4P Jones would probably still be considered faster. Please go learn what p4p means.Comment
