    I voted RJJ.

    However, if we are talking P4P we should include Tyson. He had ridiculous speed for a HW. It is such a pleasure to watch some of his early fights and the speed blows people away.

    Hamed was fast (especially at bantam, or when he really turned on the style at featherweight, such as in the Badillo/Robinson fights) but he honestly doesn't belong in the same group as fighters like Jones, Taylor, Leonard, and co. They're just on another level of speed altogether, the very top level of the sport. Jones especially almost appeared inhumanly quick at times -- the infamous hands-behind-back KO is one example, but another is the match against Hall. One moment that is stuck in my memory is when he hits Hall and sends him reeling -- while Hall is still stumbling from the punch, Jones dances all the way around him, cat-like, and as Hall finally turns and looks up he meets a Jones left-hook and goes down, utterly confused. It must have felt like he was fighting two men. That's speed.

    I have a problem with this poll, though. Where the hell is the option for Ali?
