    Tyson had more power in his combinations. Now combined with his hand and foot speed, that is the defining factor

    Patterson may have had the fastest hands. Dokes is pretty impressive too. Nobody had Tyson's combination of speed & power though.

    ali. combos and jab were a lot faster than tysons.

    Tyson was fast in short combos from different angles, and far more damaging.

    Ali had the quicker hands, Tyson could throw a 3 piece combo quick, Dempsey like but I dont think neither had the 6 piece combination buzz-saw of variant power shots that the Brown Bomber had. Ali had the feet and reflex speed as well
