    I think hes one of the fastest HW ever. Holyfield had great speed but I dont think hes faster then Haye. Thats why Hayes got a great shot against Wald. Chambers has the fastest hands at HW right now though

    hes fast, but hes slowed up abit since cruiserwieght. amazing what only 15 lbs pounds does to your speed.

    He is very fast and I think if his timing is right he has a good chance of coursing an upset against Wlad.

    I'd say he was one of the fastest heavyweights we've seen in recent years.

    very fast. His right hand rates in there with Hearns as far as quickness in delivery. That is what people are waiting to see. If he hits Vlad what will happen. He better get Vlad out of there early.

    his footspeed is nothing special. his hands though are pretty damn impressive for a heavyweight. people tend to overrate him as a package though when it comes to speed.

    Haye is quick, but he's not really THAT quick. It's just that everyone today in the heavyweight division is so damned slow! I think Holyfield was faster. Lewis was probably just a tiny bit slower.

    For 200 pounders he is about a 9 for speed. For HW's today he is almost a 10. Not quite as fast as a prime Ali but fast.

    He's about a 8 or 9 for speed. Right now he's the fastest in the division.

    I am suprised so many people think he is really fast because a lot of fans think he is only marginally faster than wlad.
