    Nobody packed as much punch as Mike that was even close to his speed. That's what made Tyson so special - he was unique in being an extremely fast and skilled heavyweight. Theres never been anybody like him and he always finished his opposition in convincing knockout fashion.

      Yes but they were not as fast as Ali, who got full extension on his punches.

      ali's jab was faster then the guy in your avatar. Out and back in like .34 for srr and .31 for ali.

        Stop hugging and answer the question. Not only did the people only slightly slower than Ali hit just as hard, they usually hit harder.

          Muhammad ALi is faster in my opinion. They were not slightly slower than ali, except mike tyson.

          Also read the thread title.

              Read the thread title. That is the question.

              Feel free to make a separate thread.

                  Read my original post. I've already said they were NOT as fast as ali.

                  Not hard to understand is it?

                    Ali had much better handspeed. Tyson had much more power and my appeared fast against guys like Tucker and Bonecrusher Smith but that is not a good measuring tool. Ali faced a much wider variety of fighters and many faster punchers than Tyrell Biggs and Pinklon Thomas.
