Mosley or Leonard.... who was faster?

leonard b/c he successfully carried his speed up to the SMW level in his second fight with Hearns

 

Leonard's hands were faster and I would dare say that he was equal the puncher of Mosley - if not the stronger puncher overall. Leonard was able to gain the edge in speed over equally "fast" fighters such as Thomas Hearns and Wifredo Benitez.

 

Leonard wins in every category. But that isn't any kind of insult to Shane. If you want to make Shane look good compare him to Meldrick Taylor. A fighter with better natural talent and more speed, but an inferior fighter.

 

yeah not even a question for me, SRL by far.

 

"yeah not even a question for me, SRL by far."

We are talking about miliseconds here as far as handspeed is concerned. But Leonard put together godlike combos.

 

Slightly faster and stronger.

 

Yeah in combos and in just sheer speed. I don't have some kind of speedometer, just what my eyes tell me. My eyes also tell me that Ali was faster than either one... not faster p4p, just faster PERIOD, which is ****ing amazing.

 

Both are very fast, but I'd say Leonard was faster.

 

Leonard.

 

Leonard was a lot better. Margarito was good, but totally overrated. I guess everyone is overrated until they prove they are not.

 

Sugar! you cant go wrong with that answer. haha no def ray!

 

atsch

 

true. while it would seem that mosley is the stronger puncher. for mosley size, (not his height but bulk, arms and torso) he is indeed very fast.

srl was faster with his weight more evenly spread out.

it would have been nice to see this two fight. :bbb:bbb
