Ok, Watch This Video... And Name Me A List of Fighters 147lbs and Up Who Are Faster

the fighters that would be closest to roys speed would have to be floyd and SRL but i still think roys faster

 

Roy has gotta be the fastest.

 

jermain taylor

 

He is very fast, but on his own power wise? Tyson threw speed punches relative to his size with a lot more power. Around that weight in recent years, Hearns springs to mind.

 

What's more amazing about the video is his foot speed. He looked like he was on springs the way he moved from one spot to another. This video also showed that while RJJ could've easily taken out his opponent early, he chose not to do so which was the case in most of his fights.

 

at 147lb.......... no one.

 

Whittaker. Even though past his best at 147 still probably faster than RJ in absolute terms.

 

Roy ability to throw those accurate combos is what seperates him from floyd. Not to take anything away from Roy, but honestly was Hall any real threat coming into this fight. Or was this expected:shock:

 

man 1:05 of round 1 still makes me bug, especially when he kisses his glove right before he knocks hall down. Roiy Jones was the ****.

 

Alot more power?

Tyson was a HW, so it's hard to determine such a thing. In Jones natural weight classes, he had devastating power. At LHW, his power relative to the foes he was facing dropped because they were bigger than him.

But at MW and SMW, Jones stopped almost everyone he faced. I think only 3 of his opponents saw the final bell. So Tyson hit harder relative to his natural size, but not "alot" more.
