    Welterweight handspeed in a light-heavyweight body.

    Jim Lampley, describing RJJ.

    You can mention Meldrick Taylor, but never has Boxing seen such a shoe shiner. Just punches in bunches, P4P Calzaghe is right their with him for that.

    As fas as single shots go, Zab Judah is in the conversation.

    Prime Meldrick Taylor is the fastest I've seen.

    Camacho, Jones, Leonard all deserve mention ... the fastest hands ever probably belonged to some fly weight that nobody has ever heard of though in all honesty.

    In my lifetime it's Roy Jones and Meldrick Taylor as 1 and 1A.

    Calzaghe was nowhere near Taylor. Usually we agree, but that is way off base. Taylor was throwing straight shots much faster than Joe was slapping away.
