    A lot of these guys being named are not slow. Wlad? He's one of the faster HWs out there with his hands. Cotto has average speed to me. Not slow nor fast, although the fluidity of his combinations help him somewhat in making up for the lack of natural speed.

    Hopkins? Huh?

    Corrales? His feet were slow, but his hand speed sure wasn't. Especially his combinations. Quick, short, and crisp.

    Theres been some dumbass answers. Cotto is far from slow. Someone said Foreman i hope there talking about the Old George and not the young George, Young George wasnt slow plodding yes but not slow. Arguello was slow afoot but had a ligtning quick release. Also Diego Corrales threw some fast combos,he was not slow.

    Active fighters
    Alfredo Angulo
    Antonio Margarito
    Giovanni Segura faster than most fighters but slow for a Flyweight
    Carl Froch
    Rocky Juarez
    Daniel Poncedeleon
    Juan Urango
    Liberado Andrade

    Marquez. Slow on his feet, slow with his hands, but always on spot with the counter past the 4th round.

    :patsch Even in his old age he is far from slow. Im guessing the only time you have seen him fight was with Mayweather.
