fastest punch!

[Kid Achilles]

When I Figh Righ Handed My Left Is Like That. BUT AFTER MONTH OF TRAINING YOU JOINTS ****IN KILL FROM GOING AGAINST THE GRAIN KNEES ESPECIALLY

Come on, there's no way your left hand is anything close to as good or as fast as Curry's is in that video.

Versatile is right. That is without a doubt the most rediculously fast punch I have ever seen.

IMO it's the left hook from RJJ that sent Toney down. I was watching the fight live and I remember how ridicilously fast it looked... Noone can say for sure what the fastest punch was though.. It's a matter of opinion...

i promise u its close. but i dont fight right handed no more.. the next step afer u learn that type of hook is to learn how to make it a left cross to make you a more complete fighter .. i remeber i tought it was hard to get the hook like that tho alot of pains cuz its unatural but then u get used to ..and then u think you finally done your style and your knees are ****in tight everymorning and u can barely get up. hopefully im almost done..

I am not calling you a liar, maybe you are really quick with the left and believe you have that kind of speed (nothing wrong with having a strong belief in oneself) but I'd have to see video evidence to prove you have what would be some of the fastest hands of all time.

Going out on a limb here...

Who had the fastest punch in history?

That's tough to say. You'd probably have to dig up some really old boxing films or ask some boxing historians. You'll most likely get different opins.

In general, I'd have to say the fastest punch is the one the opponent can't see. The sucker punch maybe? The punches thrown with economy of motion, like Ali's. And most effecient, i.e.: closest to the opponent.

The fastest punch(er)

Ali wasn't the fastest puncher, Floyd Patterson was, in the heavyweight div. Henry Cooper who fought both, said that he could always see Ali's punches coming, but Patterson's were so fast that he could feel them but not see them. Ali's "phantom" punch was a real punch, it wasn't particularly fast, being really an short, arm-punch, thrown when Liston was moving in with his own jeft jab. Because of the position, on Liston's left side, with the camera shot from the right, it was hard to see by camera, which gave people the idea that Liston had taken a "dive" (still very possible) with NO punch thrown, and of course Ali played up to the idea of HIS "phantom" punch being Soooofast that it was invisible. However, Patterson was faster, no doubt about it.
