You're comparing runners running against the clock, on a different surface, in different footwear etc.
That has nothing to do with the speed of a punch.
You cannot say that today's HW's could throw faster punches than Jack Dempsey, based on the fact that a guy like Usain Bolt has a faster recorded time than Jessie Owens.
That's not how you measure speed in boxing terms.
Dempsey would be one of the fastest HW's around if he fought today.
