i'd say he's top 5 (though obviously i'm a fan). i had to pick one i'd seen, 1)leonard 2)meldrick taylor and those mother****ers are interrchangeable
as for fastest white fighter, let's not leave willie pep out of this competition. ****, he should be in the talk for fastest fighter period on his feet, leaving colour out of it.
In the Andrade-Bute II, one of the commentators said about Bute not he is the fastest but "this guy is as fast as ever seen" Remain to see who among him , Ward or Direll is the quicker their weight...

Pep and Tunney. Tunney was the white version of Ali. Great foot movement, 4-5 punch rapid combinations, triple jabs, and right hand leads. All this in 1928! [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B-9gW3lJmVM[/ame]
willie pep "you couldn't hit him in the ass with a handful of rice" [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2a_wt60Wn9M[/ame]
