    Camacho was extremely fast, however Camacho punched without power which is much easier to look! fast when you dont have any pop on your punches.

    Roy Jones is the quickest ive ever seen, he would knock you out cold with lightening quick counters.

      Totally agree.
      Roy Jones is the greatest fighter I have ever seen(period)

      He had everything, speed, power, body attack, endurance,countering and ability that cannot be taught, in a word >>Gifted.

        If you look, shots are getting through. Not anyone can maintain that speed, power for 12. Infact the top can't aswell either, but it is a sign that they are fast.

        I can jab and throw single punches pretty fast, but then get me to punch hard and throw for 3 minutes, it's damn hard.

          throw a flurry for 3 minutes? with power behind them? without a break?

          what the hell are you on about?

            Throw hard punches at a bag fast for 3 minutes.

            That's when I get a lot slower, but if I was to jab single shots without being tired, I am pretty fast.

            That's why a lot of speed in boxing is usually calculated by combination speed rather than from a guard.

            For example Pac has faster combination speed than Floyd, but Floyd most certainly has the speed with potshots.

              Camacho was a decent puncher at 130 lbs and he was at his fastest at that weight. Never carried much power above 135 though. People should try to look for Camacho's early fights.

                You sound like me. Thats the same thing I always say. People always pick the guys who flurry the most as the fastest
