    It's difficult to judge "speed".

    Meldrick may have been the fastest with short, little combinations in close but Howard Davis "outsped" him from a distance. Roy Jones was a great athlete in every way although there have been some to match him in footspeed, handspeed and reflexes but rarely all. Camacho had amazingly fast hands, so fast that I've been accused of speeding up his footage (and I haven't which can be proven by actually watching those fights). Patterson was a fast heavyweight but Ali was faster if you take into account his greater size. Willie Pep could throw 6 or 7 jabs, land them all and get out of the way. Robinson could throw triple left hooks and knock people out (unlike Jones whose triple lefts were usually only for the show).
    camacho was still fast even in slomo...

        Four very fast choices to vote on.
        But don't you think the thread should named "Fastest fighter of the last two decades" because there were alot of very fast fighters in the 70's 60's 50's, 40's and before that are nearly forgotten.
