Who had faster hands? Sugar Ray Leonard or Roy Jones Jr

Kinda poor quality, but it's here.

Leonard was slightly faster IMO, I mean look at the hand speed in combination he displayed on the ropes against Hagler. Dude was crazy fast even after being out of the ring for nearly 3 years before that fight. Roy was really fast too, i guess i gotta go look back at some footage.

 

There’s film somewhere of Roy Jr throwing three left hooks hitting the double-end bag in 1 second.

RJJ was so fast that commentators would say he was throwing a right lead when he was really countering a punch his opponent was going to throw in the next round.

 

14:30 throwing triple left hooks in 1 second.
