    I'm gonna say zab, say what you will about him but I don't think Anybody got off shots as fast as a peak zab.

    Have you watched any Taylor fights?

    Not only does he have the fastest of those 3, he could throw combinations Floyd and Zab couldn't dream of.

    Meldrick Taylor was a special fighter.

    Taylor threw the fastest combos and flurries of the three.
    Judah probably had the quickest singular punches. That straight left and left uppercut were blazing.
    Mayweather's hands weren't quite as fast as these two.

    Meldrick Taylor was the fastest of the three, and perhaps only Roy Jones and Hector Camacho could legitimately claim to be faster.

    this is crazy, when you're saying that Mayweather is the slowest of the 3 :admin
    but nonetheless, a 130 lb Mayweather had BLAZING hand speed, and let his hands go WAY more, i guess he realizes he's at a disadvantage in size, and doesn't want to take risks, which is sad :-(

    Yes. As an aside, I consider Taylor to be generally overrated for speed. The only things about him that were particularly fast were his hands, mostly as a result of him shoe-shining to the point of making Ray Leonard circa the Hagler fight blush.

    Guys like Camacho, Howard Davis Jr., and Roy were all more impressive speedsters, in my opinion.
