There have been a lot of very fast fighters. Surely Ali and Jones Rank amongst the best. For my money, for this discussion only o would go with Jones. But there are so many guys....Meldrick Taylor comes to mind first and foremost. You have guys like Camacho and Leonard. Guys like Pep And Benny Leonard who speed might not transfer to film. Hard to be accurate here. But in my lifetime of watching boxing...I'd pick Jones. Wouldn't be offended if someone picked another fighter though.

U OK?
LH contender John Scully said Niko Valuev was the fastest big man he'd ever seen live. Of course Big Niko slowed over his years as his disease that prompted his retirement as it progressed.
He had surgery and reportedly thriving as an elected member of the Russian ship of state.

He weren't comparing to Ali but to the super heavies we have today, but that was some 15+ years ago.
Seen most of Niko fights and he was definitely a raging beast early doors.
Just sayin'!
