    I didn't even think it was debatable that Roy Jones was the fastest at 160 and above.

    Joe had speed but Roy had something special during his hey day.

    The subject if this thread... is controversial to say the least (which deserves props) but no... and the only reason Calzaghe even had decent handspeed was because he threw for speed rather than power. Slaps are faster than punches. Without a doubt, Calzaghe had the fastest slaps in boxing history. And that's not P4P. That's period. Of all time.

    Roy never snorted cocaine,He is the only boxer in history to start his career as a 154, and go on to win a heavyweight title,he was fighter od the decade,and a brilliant boxer,who went on and fought toney and hopkins in their prime,while calzaghe never left his backyard where he fought a bunch of bums,until he fought hopkins when they gave him a gift decision.Calzaghe cant hold his ****ing jockstrap.Take that.

    Roy simply wasn't prepared to fight such a slickster as super Joe.

    and what drug are you on? Its clearly affecting your memory.


    you've already been told earlier by a medical professional that steroids dont enhance your hand speed or timing or reflexes. get with it.
