    Ok I went past ten.
    :boxx

    Roy Jones Jr.
    Pernell Whitaker
    Sugar Ray Leonard
    Meldrick Taylor
    Muhammad Ali
    Hector Camacho (in his prime)
    Howard Davis Jr.(see the fight against Meldrick Taylor)
    Finito Lopez(used to put a lot together in just milliseconds)
    Shane Mosley(@ lightweight)
    Zab Judah
    Kevin Kelley
    Corey Spinks
    Prince "Naseem" Hamed

    I left Floyd and Pacman off on purpose
    They dominate the site anyway, I thought I'd give some other fighters some love.

    Spinks is not that fast. His "talent" is overrated the kid is extremely skilled which is underrated and the reason he has done what he's done in boxing.

    Dirrell, Gamboa, Guzman all way faster then him and faster then some one that list.

    In no order.

    Hector Camacho
    Pernell Whitaker
    Muhammad Ali
    Roy Jones Jr
    Floyd Patterson
    Sugar Ray Robinson
    Sugar Ray Leonard
    Meldrick Taylor
    Willie Pep
    Manny Pacquiao

    I decided to leave off third tier fighters and the unproven talents of today.

    I disagree about Spinks, take away his foot and hand speed he's a dead man vs. almost every one he's faced(see Mayorga:yep). As for Dirrell, Gamboa, Guzman I really didn't put any new guys on there I'll wait till later in their careers to access them(not to say it's right, it's just the way I'm doing it).

    Pacquaio does not have atg hand speed. His shots are more arm punches and not that fast when you compare them to an elite fighter.

    I wonder if Pac will ever learn to torque his body, rather than throwing those feeble arm punches.

    Hands down Meldrick Taylore #1. PFP Ali has to be right behind. Then after that i would have to think long about putting them in order.

    Do any of you guys remember "Fast" Eddie Hopson? I thought he was the next meldrick Taylor but i guess he had a glass jaw.

    One fighter that should never be left out of any discussion of speed is Floyd Patterson. Some say he was faster even than Ali.

    I think the point was the power punches aren't as fast. Of course, those arm punches are about as powerful as Meldrick Taylor's punches.
