      Frank Bruno had the fastest hands I ever saw.

      Unfortunately, his arms were very very slow.

        i believe Patterson had the fastest hands at heavy but seeing as Jones did have one fight at the weight and had some pretty fast hands, would you rate him at the weight?

          Nope because he never got tested against some one with equally fast hands at that weight like Patterson did against Ali so there's nothing to judge against

              I'm not so sure I agree with your line of thinking. Jones never faced anybody with equal hand speed...does that mean he didn't have fast hands - or maybe I am misunderstanding you?

                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."

                Muhammad Ali, the Greatest...Faster than Sugar Ray. The Ali of the 1960's is the fastest heavyweight of all time.


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

                    I'm just talking about at hw Patterson had something to go against for his time and after you could compare him to Ali or even Tyson because of styles but jones fought such a slow person that opposed no challenge

                    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
