I think Chris Byrd had similar footmovement and possibly better upper body movement. Those attributes is what allowed him to win the HW title. He didn't have any HW power. I think Byrd would've been better in another era, this era of super big HW's hurt him.

totaly agree, the man has amazing heart as well. As far as foot speed byrd was not really that close to ali. Ali could just look like he was floating no one has even come close and there are not that many who do even outside of the HW divison. Tyson could have been in the neighborhood athleticly but his style would not allow for him to untilze his feet.

Probably Tyson when he was in his prime and fleet footed.....

Did Andrew Golota have good footspeed in his prime?

not anything special but he could move very well when he needed to. Don't get me started on Golota though one of the biggest wastes of potiental in boxing history.

Sam Peter of course

Gene Tunney, probably; but of the modern athletes who obviously tried to immitate Ali's style, Herbie Hyde and Larry Donald come to mind.
