        I was saying being fast can't be tought, you have to have it in you and with boxing training it will come to surface. But i don't believe you need to do dumbell shadow boxing and all that stuff to become fast, just keep boxing and if you have the right genetics the speed will come naturaly.

          from what I know if you want to improve speed you should get some 3-6lb balls and throw them just how you throw a punch. get 2 and do the 1-2 and toss those bad boys.

          Or do what Pavlik does and hit a heavy bag with a weighted bat, really similar concept.

            You can not improve hand speed at all. The effect of shadow boxing with dumbbells is the same as boxing with heavier gloves. It builds endurance and your hands are quicker for ten seconds after because you are used to throwing more power to get your shots off with the weights on your hands. Then when you adjust it goes again.

            That is ludicrous improving hand speed it is something you are born with.

              bull****, maybe you won't get as fast as someone at a lower weight class, but saying you can't make improvement is silly

                Measure handspeed. You cant. It cant be improved otherwise heavyweights would have speed but they dont. Technique, stamina, power can all be improved but hand speed can not.

                  One heavyweight isn't faster than another? Of course they're slower, they weigh more, but one can be faster than another.
