Gotta go with Roy in his prime his combo of speed and power was devastating.

Roy Jones JR in his prime was a slaughtering machine.

I would be suprised if nearly all didn't answer with RJJ...

No Shane??
At 135, he was a demon. As far as power, got to say Roy. Pure speed? I always thought pre-JCC Meldrick Taylor was the fastest fighter I've ever seen...

Re: Who had quicker hands combined with power?
Roy Jones Jr.
Hands down.
SRL had great speed and power as well.
Whitaker and Taylor were super quick but not very powerful.
And Robinson of course hit hard as well.
But Roy Jones was untouchable in his prime.

Re: Who had quicker hands combined with power?
I went Roy but as Ross said Mike Tyson because he had awesome hand speed and power perhaps he should have been on list.

Re: Who had quicker hands combined with power?
Good call on shane, Greig. I'd have him 2nd on my list.
I know I keep on saying it but RJJ really was superman

As people have mentioned before Mike Tyson, devastating power and perhaps the 2nd fastest hands in HW history that's only behind Ali.

Re: Who had quicker hands combined with power?
From that list it's gotta be Roy.
Possibly the greatest fighter ever
Re: Who had quicker hands combined with power?
What about Floyd Patterson ? he had quicker hand speed than Muhammad Ali, and had a fair dig aswell especially with the left hook.

Re: Who had quicker hands combined with power?
Ray Robinson no contest. Yes Jones had power but against who? Eric Lucas ? an old blown up Vinny Pazienza? Another old Virgil Hill?.
Ray Robinson didn't do it as dazzling as Jones but damn knocking Gene Fullmer out cold. A man who was never stopped,Jake Lamotta again a man who was never stopped in the Valentine's Day Massacre. I leave it with this 173 wins with 108 KO's the quickest hands at the time with the best power except for maybe Archie Moore and Rocky Marciano.Obviuosly much better opposition as well.
