    Ward exposed Froch`s hand speed a little bit when he completely out-boxed him.

    Doesn't make Froch slow at all. Ward was just the better, smarter fighter.

    Sandoval must've been real red hot at that point, then...

    Anyway, its a shame that this stuff happens to some, and an even bigger shame his glory moments are not on film, especially when guys like Erbito and Hanagata got theirs. Thanks for the response.

    There's been thousands of who hit the hardest threads over the years not to mention tens of thousands of fighter x versus z so lets cut some slack on this one. We can't "know" any of it.

    Fastest for their weight, based on grainy footage? Just weird.

    In modern times Tony Tubbs, Meldrick Taylor and Roy Jones come to mind.

    That's combination speed.

    One single power shot, Nigel Benn was lightning.

    I think he was speaking about how early Taylor began to fade, but last I saw Taylor had a speech impairment due to brain damage.

    Julian Jackson was far quicker with his one shot power, McCallum stated Jackson had the quickest hand speed he ever faced.

    Just taking from the horses mouth, a guy who fought Roy Jones and Jackson, Jones also had quicker one punch power than Benn, check Thomas and Griffin to validate that.

    Why ask the question if you already supposedly know the answers in your little head? You make very little sense on here.
