    Especially considering that Ray threw with full body weight, while Khan is a bull**** arm puncher.

    Prime Michael Nunn was extremely fast. I mean, outside of Jones, I can't think of a faster middleweight.

    Maybe not the fastest ever, but Rau'shee Warren has remarkably fast hands

    Zap Judah in his prime was maybe the fastest I ever seen. I'm sure there's faster guys but the impression has stuck with me. GRJ, khan, PAC, linares...all good mentions far as recents go. Gamboa as well.

    Roy Jones for me...buth the fastest Heavyweight for Hand Speed and Movement has to be Ali....we will never see the likes of him again in that division.!!!

    Fastest feet for sure, but IMO doesn't have the handspeed of a Khan, Russell Jr., Meldrick Taylor, etc. etc.

    Saddam Ali and Linares also have to be rated for modern day.

    Roy Jones. It's not even close. His hand speed and reflexes were not human.
