        SRR is my all time favorite. SRL is my second favorite and I think up there near SRR overall. Mayweather’s handspeed was ridiculous. Everyone knows RJJ had some of the best handspeed at his peak. Calzaghe’s one great skill was his handspeed and it helped him to overachieve much like Wilder with his power.

          Good picks. I'd also include Meldrick Taylor and Camacho.

            Joe Calzaghe and Floyd? Joe is not a puncher? He is a volume guy. Watch his KOs highlight reel where one guy got stopped for no reason.

            Floyd is not a puncher, he got power at the lowerweight but never a puncher that you would consider a KO artist. He tends to grind people down, but I can understand why you pick him though.

            1. SRL
            2. Meldrick Taylor
            3. Roy Jones.
            4. Pacquiao
            5. SRR

              Prime Manny PacMan had blazing speed. Not a fan but Amir Khunt did as well. Some of the more recent guys.

                Good list.
                As for Floyd I guess the ability to catch and parry then shoot a counter so fast always was aamazing to me.

                Calzaghe’s flurries looked incredibly fast to me. I agree that Hopkins should have won a close decision in their fight, much like I think Castillo looked like he won a close decision in the first fight with Floyd. In both cases it was close enough I don’t view them as robberies. When one guy’s undefeated and it’s close, he usually gets the nod, it’s boxing...

                  I’ve never heard anyone claim Calzaghe had ATG hand speed before.

                    Oh I see.

                    I’ve said before on NSB I think he overachieved with his handspeed and heart bailing him out much like Wilder with his power and heart.
