    Who was the fastest BIG heavyweight of all time?

    As topic says, who was the fastest big heavyweight of all time? Talking handspeed.

    Let's say 230lbs + and 6'3+ though it's not set in stone.

    Mike Tyson is a small hw. V Klitschko is a very big hw.

        Lewis was the fastest I can remember, in terms of the super heavyweights. He had great speed in his younger days, much more so than Foreman, the Klistschko's, etc...

        Ali, Tyson and the likes are small in comparison.

          Ali i would consider a medium sized heavyweight. He was just north of 210lbs in his prime.

                Lewis might be many thinks, but he never was as fast as wlad. Wlad's footwork always was superior.

                Ali is the one if you count him as he was lighter than 230lb.

                  The younger 2000 Wladimir probably had the fastest handspeed of any big heavyweight in history.
