    You nailed it with Willie Pep and Floyd Pattersdon. But I would change middle weight to Harry Greb. But you list is pretty stellar. CC at you

    I done hardest hitting list and i had Marciano in my Cruiserweight list technically yes your right but still guys like Patterson and Marciano would be rated as Cruiserweight by todays standards

    I think Patterson could of been all time great at Cruiserweight or Lightheavyweight.

    While were on the subject of hand speed you might find this interesting..

    Ive recently read "MUHAMMED ALI his life and times" written by thomas hauser

    Anyway in the book in a little statement from angelo dundee he says he took video footage of Sugar ray robinson and Ali jabbing there opponents..Aparently Ali's punch was in less frames than SRR's

    So ali punched faster than a welterwieght..and probably one of the fastest welters......think thats BS?

    For some Reason Greb seems To Generate alot of Discord...He would love that.IMO,(these days thats the prime requesite) Greb was a very quick fisted fighter.
