Muhammad Ali?
"The Muhammad Ali of 60’s was the fastest heavyweight ever. In the May 5, 1969 Sports Illustrated, Ali’s jab was measured with an omegascope. Ali’s jab, it was found, could smash a balsa board 16.5 inches away in 19/100 of a second. It actually covered the distance in 4/100 of a second, which is the blink of an eye. Jimmy Jacobs, who owned the world’s largest collection of fight films, said that on film tests with a synchronizer Ali’s jab was faster than that of Sugar Ray Robinson. Jacobs contended that Ali was not only the fastest heavyweight, but also the fastest fighter he ever saw on film."

On a more serious note Anthony Mundine is the fastest ever. Anyone who thinks otherwise is a joke.

I don't really rate it because I never got to see him fight a fast fighter at that weight so there's nothing to compare him to IMO because we all knew he was gonna out speed Ruiz
I don't know if you get it but I tried lol I have a hard time writing my mind moves faster then what I type I wish they had a video section so I could just explain haha

You express yourself just fine, I have the same problem at times (mind to typing ratio lol) but you're good.
