    I happen to think that boxers are faster on person then they look on the video streams .. its weird like sometimes when they show replays it looks faster and more explosive

    I agree, to an extent. I think guys like Amir Khan, Lomachenko, and GRJ are so fast that video doesnt do them justice, almost like it cant keep up with them.

    Mention Dillian Whyte's name in Bootleg Dorticos' presence and you'll see every track record in history smashed simultaneously.

    I’m of the belief that speed and power both come down to timing and are also both negated by timing. No point having the fastest hands if you don’t know when to throw them etc

    Problem is the division is so broad with small HWs and super HWs. Smaller guys almost always have faster hands and feet if they're not obese. So Usyk is probably the fastest given he is small and not fat.

    Wilder and Fury would have to be the quickest tall HWs. Fury's speed claim is more about being very fast for a guy that tall and heavy rather than being the fastest HW. But he's also a moron who just fired Davison for a new trainer he's never fought with before the biggest fight of his career.

    JJ vs Valuev or old George Foreman would be spectacle.

    It would be like the bullet time scene in the Matrix but in real time.

    Yes, people would think that they are watching a slow motion replay and not an actual fight
