    Like Calzaghe,maybe speedster with good combos, Armstrong wasn't exactly a speedster.

    If so, Roman Gonzalez is the first volume puncher with fast hands, who punches in combination, usually without loading up, that springs to mind and who hasn't been mentioned in this thread yet.

    Hi Buddy.
    Good call, he is probably the prolific volume puncher of all time.
    stay safe robert, would like to see you post more, you know your stuff, and deliver in a informative and polite manner.
    Mike.

    Hmmm...
    Akifumi Shimoda
    Fighting Harada
    Akira Yaegashi
    Ismael Laguna (at times)
    Kuniaki Shibata
    Vicente Saldivar
    Miguel Canto
    Anselmo Moreno
    Gilberto Roman (at times)
    Michael Carbajal (Pre Humberto II)
    Johnny Tapia
    Katsuya Onizuka
    Orlando Canizales
    Betulio Gonzalez (at times)
    Bernard Hopkins (at times)
    Yoko Gushiken
    Baby Jake Matlala
    Ezzard Charles
    Can't think of more, Saoul Mamby deserves a honorable mention imo, he's no speedster but his punching technique is kinda slappy like Calzaghe too.


    Edit:Masao Ohba and Ernesto Marcel maybe?
