Fastest Boxers of All Time
The is the man of his own. Even when he is not in his prime he still got that handful speed and power which you should not forget to note. He still has it and he is a gifted with it. His foot and level of intellect in the sport made him accomplished what he has right now.
This guy moved from bantamweight to welterweight conquering each division. Even though he moved weights he still maintained his speed. The guy throws punches from weird angles. With power in both hands he demolished legends LIKE Oscar De LaHoya, Marco Antonio Barrera, Shane Mosley and many others.
Pacquiao is undoubtedly one of the best fighters of all time.
Muhammad ali is known to be the fastest boxer of all time as he is absoluter right with his quotes. He is defiantly the greatest and t. Nicknamed "The Greatest, " Ali was involved in several historic boxing matches. Notable among these were three with rival Joe Frazier, which rank among the greatest in boxing history, and one with George Foreman, where he finally regained his stripped titles seven years later. Ali was well known for his unorthodox fighting style, which he described as "float like a butterfly, sting like a bee", he fastest every one know that
Special. In his prime, Roy Jones Jr was something extraordinary. Ultimately, its difficult to sum up what made him so great in so few words, but he left a lasting impression. With the sheer hand speed, fleet of foot and reflexes that made him impossible to hit, Roy was able to get away with incredible showboating, and dazzling punch combinations. Realistically, Jones was faster than anyone in history pound-for-pound, even the great Sugar Ray Leonard at 147 would have trouble beating a 168 Roy to the punch. The hand speed will never really be matched, and the more I consider it, although other great fighters will come and go, Roy Jones Jr, wasn't just special. Roy was as close to Superman as any being will ever get. Watch the highlights and mull it over, because as Max Kellerman once said " We're never gonna see that again."
"Pretty boy" Floyd or "Money" Mayweather is widely considered to be one of the greatest if not the greatest boxer in boxing history. Floyd Mayweather has had success not only inside the ring, but outside... read more
Floyd Mayweather is one of the best defensive specialists of all time. Incredible reaction speed and reflexes make him impossible to hit and his accurate, quick punches are punishing.
How the BLUE HELL is Floyd Mayweather Jr not number 1...? He is the most accurate boxer in history. Plus in his younger days like in his 20s, he couldn't even be touched.
Floyd can throw Jabs from any starting position, whether up high or down low and hit his opponent literally anywhere with crazy accuracy.
Sugar ray Leonard has the fastest hand speed ever. Ali had great hand speed for a heavy but not on Leonard's level
Sugar is famous for his wars in the golden era against Duran, Hagler and Hearns. You don't get the nickname Sugar without being special.
The fact that he is so low is insane. Watch the marvin hagler fight and the duran fight and you will see his speed is unmatched
I mean do I need to pull up the film. Mike Tyson for his size and weight was undoubtly the fastest boxer I ever seen with my own 2 eyes. Head Movement Check, Hand Speed Check, Foot speed way to good for a big man.
Although there are many fast punchers out there, few, and I mean very few, can match Mike Tyson's level of speed. Yes, Sugar Ray Leonard, Roy Jones Jr. , Manny, and Ali are worthy mentions; but nobody can top Mike's speed in single punches, combinations, AND accuracy. I see these other greats, but in my honest opinion, their single punches, let alone combinations, look like sloppy quick throws. Mike Tysons, are like a bullet shooting out of his body. They are violent.
He is blistering with his hands, the two losses to Garcia and Alvarez puts his speed on display. He was winning both fights thoroughly until he got hit by power shots. He has tremendous speed and tends to overcommit by putting combinations together, but exposes himself to danger. If he avoids putting the 3+ punch combinations together and sticks with 1's and 2's, he could've been undefeated.
Khan undoubtedly has the fastest combination punching speed in the sweet science (ever) however, poor defensive habits and terrible management has left the young individual facing trouble both in and out the ring. The potential to be a all time great to just another risky boxer who could ruin upcoming stars resume.
Was once the youngest heavyweight champion in the world before a certain 'Iron Mike' came along. Very fast hands for a heavyweight.
Floyd had just an amazingly fast leaping left hook. Look at second fight with Johansson. Just tears the arms head off.
Floyd Patterson had lightning fast hand speed, extremely fast for a heavyweight.
Naseem Hamed was a fantastic boxer with tremendous enthusiasm and confidence. At his prime he was probably one of the best pound for pound and lost against Barrera due to the weight he had lost to make the weight limit. He had no power on that night but this defeat should not look over his accomplishments. He was truly a gifted fighter and an entertainer.
Prince was flashy, talked a lot of trash and generally had no respect for his opponents until he got his beatdown from Barrera. But that doesn't take away from the fact he was a naturally gifted fighter. Speed and very powerful punches for a lower weight fighter, Naseem was another special fighter.
We saw how fast he was against Mayweather Jr. in their 2006 bout. Crazy speed.
Meldrick taylor by far had the quickest hands at the time even by today's standard. Although he lacked power he made up for it with speed and accuracy.
If you've never seen Meldrick Taylor before, please go onto YouTube and watch some of his fights. His handspeed is unbelievable, a serious contender for #1 spot.
He should be number one without a doubt!
If you need one reason to justify the claim that he is one of the fastest ever, it should be that Roy Jones wouldn't fight him - someone who could finally Roy for speed, loved to mix it up (remember, when he got tagged he started to have a tear up! ) and who had a chin of iron. One of the most underrated fighters of all time.
Undefeated world champion Joe Calzaghe mixed incredible speed with brilliant stamina as he could easily throw over a 1000 punches in a fight. This was usually down to his brittle hands meaning he couldn't thrown many power punches.
What the hell? This guy is the best pound for pound boxer ever. He is officially the fastest boxer to have ever lived. What the hell is he doing last on this list. It's obviously little hypebeast boys who vote for anything that's "in".
My idol. One day I hope to be as good as Robinson
Fastest fighter ever.. Had every skill needed
Many fighters ranked above him on here should be below.
There is nobody athletic as Loma...ever in the history of boxing. After Jones he may be #1
Hands down, Hector "Macho" Camacho had the fastest hands I've ever seen in my life. This man had supernatural speed you'll only see in video games or movies. Macho was unbelievable. You'd have to see it to truly get an understanding of the what seemed to be CGI hands speed Macho possessed.
Quickest mind in the ring, also...
He got outta the way as much as he could but unlike Floyd Mayweather jr. who se happy to throw one punch before the ring, Camacho would come bacak with blazing combintions and he would bring it to his opponents.
How could you forget him? Maybe not the fastest but definitely top ten, and had a rediculous left hook that floored people
Aj is the greatest fighter in the world with Big slugger/also smack.
