When talking about The Hawk, everybody naturally point at his enormous punching power. But what about his speed? The man possessed quite impressive footspeed for a puncher. One thing that always striked me watching him was how fast he was and even when he no longer was prime he still had very good footspeed. Like against G-Man. Thats one of the reasons he was able to last 5 rounds with him I think, at the time when G-Man made short work of all his opponents. I think thats also the reason why he was able to land that big ko punch on ultra-fast Terry Norris as well.
He had the size of a mw, but fought as a lmw first and this also has something to do with it, I mean it proves he had speed. Punchers of his size never fought at 154. Unless they were also fast.
