Who had the fastest hands?

roy jones
shane mosley
meldrick taylor
floyd mayweather
hector camacho sr
zab judah
sugar ray leonard
Ali

I would give the edge to roy. plus he had it at higher weights and carried it to each of the weight classes he moved up to.

My Boy Mosley, He will have hit you 7 times befor u feel the first punch

Your list matches mine perfectly except I would not give the advantage to Roy. It would have to be between Meldric Taylor and Shane Mosley, both of those fighters moved like the flash, they were both faster than Jones but remember they were also alot smaller. You could add Terry Norris on the list also

Roy Jones and Meldrick Taylor

Pound for pound, Taylor in his prime, IMO, has the fastest hands, I have ever seen.

A mention goes to ‘Terrible’ Terry Norris, who had amazing hand speed, and one punch KO power to go with it…

Shane for me

tommy hearns hands were lightening quick

As an amateur he had blistering hands, but believe it or not, virtually zero KO power (12 stoppages in 155 wins).

Sugar Shane Mosley.

gotta say Malignaggi and Khan have very fast hands
but from your list Sugar Shane

Comacho snr is a good shout, his were extremely quick.

I should slaughter you for saying anything good about Malignaggi

Hate to say anyone was faster than RJ but Meldrick Taylor if you have to pick from that list

Not as fast as his legs, when Rosario started landing his right!!! :wink:

But you are right, in his pomp (83-85), his hand speed compared to anyone’s.

tie between meldric taylor and Sugar Ray…those two were blurs…

Michael Carbajal would slap the taste out of all these guy’s mouths before they even knew he was in the room.

he was only 108 pounds tho ;D

You don’t have to like him or think he will beat Cotto to admit he has extremely quick hands

Yay someone remembers the Phoenix local!! :coolclick:

It depends at what…

Roy Jones had the fastest combination and one punch speed overall I’ve seen
Floyd Mayweather Jr. has the fastest one punch speed I’ve seen (at 130)
Mosley or Meldrick had the best combination punching.

Taylor wasn’t even close to as fast as Roy Jones Jr. p4p… no1 was.

I know killersheep hehe, can’t help myself I must hate on Malignaggi and Audrey Harrison till my dying day
