    RJJ - Ali - Who the fastest?

    Probably an old question, but is Roy (or was, I should say) faster than Ali with his handspeed?

    And those "swish" noises Roy makes when he punches... does his hand speed make them by cutting the air, or is he doing them with his mouth like the bloke out of Police Academy?

    His mouth. Like pistons. I dont know if it was sound effects or breathing

      I think Ali in his first run as champion (and before) was just a shade quicker.

          I kinda thought it was the guy's mouth but isn't making sound effects when you're boxing... a little... well, silly? It IS cool at the same time, though.

          Imagine if the guy from Police Academy attended these fights, doing all his crazy ****, counting people out and what have you. The place would be in uproar.

                  he makes those noises for a reason, like when you lift weights you breathe properly so you dont waste energy
