      Sadly nobody mentioned Zab Judah, fastest hands of his era imo.
      This is why we can't have topics like this here. 90% of the posters on this site only know the era they live in, maybe the one before it. This is the worst era of boxing, even the best fighters in any aspect of this era would be average at best in the 50's. To say Judah may have the fastest hands in this era is so far from prestigious in the grand scheme of all things boxing, it's funny.



      Ali, Taylor, and Leonard for me, but I haven't seen enough fighters to make a sound judgement of all time.

          Best fighters of today would be average in the 50's??? Would you say that about the NBA or Football players??? Same applies.

          Jim Brown wouldnt start over Adrian Peterson in todays NFL. But a guy like Jerry Rice would still be uncoverable WR. So thats not a fair statement. Some guys would be average , some guys would dominate.


          And to say Judah having fast hands in his era isnt note worthy makes no sense. Were talking about handspeed. Not resume or overall skill set.

          Simply hand speed. That has nothing to do with how prestigious an era is. Every era has fast hands.


          Hell who has faster hands than Gary Russell Jr right now???

          No one. So that means he doesnt get credit? Look I love boxng history but sometimes people go too far this era is fine. Theyre are SEVERAL ATG's, several hall of famers, ad weve had several great fights.


          Zab Judah had LIGHTNING fast hands. That cant be debated.
