Who had fastest prime hands

[rjj tszyu]

mosley in his early days could easily throw 20-25 punches in a matter of seconds

obviously the lighter guys are gonna have faster hands than the middle, heavy fighters - but if your talking all round in general id still have to say mosley has the fastest ive seen

There is a video clip of Jones in training throwing about 25 hard shots in 5 seconds on a floor to ceiling bag. If I can find it I'll post it. It's amazing!

To get back to the point of the thread, Jones' handspeed is p4p the fastest I've ever seen so obviously far faster than Calzaghe.

And that was an old Roy Jones too

YouTube - Roy Jones Jr. Training

Does the combo at the 6:10 mark

Jones punches, Calzaghe slaps. There's no comparison there.

Chris Byrd could be fast. Sugar Ray Robinson also

I think Meldrick had the fastest hand speed.
Followed by RJJ then SRL.

Ali def. deserves a mention anyone seen training footage of him will tell you.

im glad people agree. A name not mentioned was tyson he deserves a mention, was watching him on espn classics and he was very fast for a big guy.

As soon as I read the headline of this post I thought of Meldrick Taylor. Unreal handspeed and all solid shots. The only other guy who has a reasonable argument is RJJ. Roy is something hard to define. A guy his size with those reflexes. He is a freak of nature. No exaggeration. P4P, RJJ has no competition in handspeed. Even without the p4p crap, RJJ is at worst 2nd in handspeed all time. Old school Ike Williams had amazing speed too. Mosley, Mayweather, Berto, etc. these guys are fast but not even in the same plane as Meldrick Taylor or RJJ. Roy is the guy who started the left hook lead because his freakish speed made up for technical flaws that would not work long for anyone else. Mayweather stole that left hook lead. And as one guy posted, that 1-2 RJJ landed on Reggie Johnson was unpreventable. You couldn't prepare for it in real speed. He hit Reggie with a left then right then backed up admiring his work and getting out of range of a possible counter before Reggie even started to fall. It was sick.

I think Mosley was close in his prime he could throw combos with great speed and i think Leonard not that far off as well watch some video and so while i been while since i seen a prime Molsey fight and while since i seen a prime Leonard fight as well but from what i remeber they were just as fast and they could use it to pot shot and throw great combos as well.
