i remember watching that for the first time - :shock: that combo has to be one of the fastest (6?7?punch) combinations thrown and with so much pop
air doesnt hit back. at least be objective and stop being such a *******. for me Taylor had freakishly fast hands.
Im surprised no ones mentioned Robinson. Might not "look" as fast but you'll be hard pressed to find anything "pitty-pat" ever come from him tyson and ali get good shout outs for their weight
Froch. Just kidding, I'd have to go with Ali. The speed he had for his height/weight in the early 60's was incredible.
Then post a video of Taylor displaying faster handspeed in the gym like this one. No rush, you have until eternity to find one. :yep

It is like some posters mentioned. There are a lot of fast fighters, but elite like SRL, Jones, Camacho, Taylor, etc. They were special fighters. It is like power. You either have it or not. Speed and power can be worked on, but not that God given gifts these men had. This kid Russell, Jr is one to keep your eye on. Camacho is one of my all time best fighters, but he threw most of his gifts away partying. Most of the time he fought he did not throw his whole body into his punches or he would have gotten a lot more KO's. Again, it does not go by size or all the flyweights would be Taylors or Camachos. It is a gift just like power. One more thing, damn I wish Taylor boxed more instead of slugging it out with his opponents. He is no relation to me, but I feel bad on his health condition.
