I'll admit it. I'm 40 years old. Been a boxing fan my whole life. Boxed amateur for my county, University and in the British Army......never heard of Eddie Hopson. So glad you are back *Boxing Legends TV*
Every time I see footage of Tyson, I'm amazed at how complete a boxer he was. People talk about his power, but he was also remarkably technically skilled and very, very tactically savvy. His footwork to switch angles was crazy.
I was waiting for my man, the late great Macho Camacho, to be rightfully honored among these great fighters! Thank you for not disappointing! I was at ringside during his Greg Coverson fight in 82'. Hector Camacho was so cool, he gave me his autograph after the fight even though I intruded into his locker room. I was a huge fan! Rest in peace, champ!
We thought we would come back in speedy style. Thanks to everyone that stuck around! also thanks for the support on YT, Twitter and Reddit in the meantime. I wish I could say I'm back for good but you just never know with these big greedy companies trying to take me down
People just don't understand!!! They haven't watched Roys fights. The man was literally living in the matrix and if he stayed hungry he would have NEVER lost. These people just don't understand.
@@jeremiahtheprophet7125 Yea Roy is the 🐐 in my opinion, he was untouchable in his prime. I wish he would have retired after he beat Ruiz, I feel like he would have probably been unanimously agreed upon as the GOAT if he did.
Muhammad Ali is the fastest boxer ever. "I'm so fast that last night i turned off the light switch in my hotel room and was in bed before the room was dark."
I'm more impressed of heavyweight fighters that possess such incredibly speed! Even on TV, imagine if you watched them live ringside. Absolutely remarkable 👏
Facts. His body and chin fail him but his heart never wavers. Gotta respect that. True warrior. World champ 22, unified 24. 10-3 against World Champs. Olympic Silver. Can't knock him.
He killed a guy with his car, never even acknowledged it to the victim's family...that and he is a pretentious jerk with no chin in a carefully managed career. Racism?! Come on man!
Mercenary Julius at no point in my comment have I mentioned race, Julius. I keep it strictly boxing. I’ve been watching Khan since his silver medal win in Athens, and again I’m only talking about his boxing career. He’s got 3 KO losses; same as Zab Judah. Does that mean he has a weak chin too? I’ll happily talk boxing with a fellow fan, but don’t suggest I’m claiming other fans are being racist towards Khan when at no point I mentioned race. I talk boxing. Nothing more
@@ScorpionF1RE_USA when y'all gonna realise that Pacquiao was the one who ducked and was the reason the fight not happening earlier He was on steroids and didn't wanna take a drug test
Terrence Crawford is one of those boxers you just appreciate more the better you get at boxing. Roy Jones Jr. is such a pure natural talent that from the first time I saw any footage of him I knew he was something very special and I still think that in his prime he was unquestionably one of the greatest of all time. What really made him so damn fast (apart from the insane reaction time and physical abilities) was the fact that his eyes and brain were fast enough to keep up with his hands so even at that insane speed his punch selection was still ridiculously good.
Roy Jones Jr doesn't get enough credit for his boxing brain. He was able to work out opponents patterns and tells, and work around them mid-fight. We also saw it when he was commentating he could predict fighters next moves by small signals of body language
That is a really great point. Some people can fire off those crazy fast combo's but it's like an automated thing. His being consciously aware of those insanely fast punches is just INSANE
What I like about Oscar Del La Hoya is that he never dodged anyone. He fought the best at their best. When you do that, you might suffer some losses. How many times have we watched these "super" fights when both boxers were past their prime.
He fought all the ones Tito beat. Mayorga, Vargas and so on. In regards of Winky, he did not fight De La Hoya because De La Hoya was paying him to little, so De La Hoya fought Campas. Oh BTW! Tito lost to Winky. He had the best guard, like a wall.
Yes, agree 100 percent. Look at pacman and his losses in prime years... Defeat Number 1 - Rustico Torrecampo. ... Defeat number 2 - Medgoen Singsurat (3k Battery) ... Defeat number 3 - Erik Morales. ... Defeat 4 - Timothy Bradley. ... Defeat 5 - Juan Manuel Marquez. ... Defeat 7 - Jeff Horn. For real? Pacman had one real fight and barely landed a punch on Mayweather. Oscar faced down the top 5 plus of his prime and won more than he lost vs the best. Hell who even is Jeff Horn. I thought he was a wide receiver for the Seahawks. Oscar vs Chavez was a great fight and showed how fast Oscar was. He ducked noone.
@MrWithnailJRjunior tyson is self deprecating & the last person to qualify as a objective. tyson was a force of nature, a genetic savant with an aptitude for his pursuit that is comparable to the genius of mozart or einstein. however, his ability, being based on youth & speed, had no longevity. his window was small but his potential was unparalleled.

There is something just incredibly pleasing to the eye about fast boxers. This is an incredible list you've put together. When Amir Khan is at #7 on the list, you know you've got some speedy ass guys.
Top 25 Fastest Boxers That Will Never Be Forgotten (According to Boxing Legends TV): 1. Roy Jones Jr (Light-Heavyweight) 2. Ray Leonard (Welterweight) 3. Meldrick Taylor (Welterweight) 4. Gary Russel Jr (Featherweight) 5. Sugar Ray Robinson (Middleweight) 6. Hector Camacho (Lightweight) 7. Amir Khan (Welterweight) 8. Floyd Patterson (Heavyweight) 9. Manny Pacquiao (Welterweight?) 10. Muhammad Ali (Heavyweight) 11. Yuriorkis Gamboa (Super Featherweight) 12. Shane Mosley (Welterweight) 13. Mike Tyson (Heavyweight) 14. Oscar De La Hoya (Welterweight) 15.

Gary Russen @17.10 is pure art. Showcases so much skill. Throws a combo dodges, goes up sees the space, replicates the movement to create the same opening an BOOOOM. Perfection.
GREAT pick with Roy Jones Jr at number 1!! I watched the entire video and when it got down to number 3, I was thinking, where the hell is Roy Jones Jr at on this list!
@@propheticadmirer1701 lol you know he was known as cassius clay back than in his prime, he changed his name to muhammad ali, best boxer in history or at least one of the best.
@@illidanisdead6924 what do u mean racist ideoloque.He converted to Islam.And Even Mike Tyson had converted to Islam.The greatest and one of the best boxers of all times.
asdfdg11 b/c it’s video taped. Lol everyone knows he was out of shape vs Barrera and had broken hands 8 months prior. He wasn’t training seriously because he couldn’t, he was around 30 pounds overweight just 2 weeks before the fight and had to shed it all off that fast which is terrible for your body. What he should’ve done is pushed his fight date back and trained/recovered properly but he got too greedy and wanted the money. He had to shadow box in the sauna for hours the night before that fight to lose a couple more pounds. Idk how smart your are but just watching that fight you can see Naseem was not hisself, he was tired and sloppy. That was the only fight he didn’t summersault into the ring. Despite that he still went the whole 12 rounds and even won like 4 of them, never got knocked down. Barrera is a good fighter too so that speaks for itself.
Roy was good but I think he used peds. Time will tell as the truth always comes out. Hope I am wrong because He was on another level, an unbelievable level. Drugs have destroyed to many good fighters before their prime time. A naturally gifted fighter should not have to compete against "enhanced" odds that risk his or her life. Whether they use or not.
CallMeSnowwy Why not? Five-division world champion, three-time(or four-time) lineal champion, 23 champs/former champs in his record, and undefeated at the most elite competition. Mayweather was just simply great.
Of course Roy is in your #1 spot 😁 I'm biased too. IMO no one did it like Roy Jones Jr, a true virtuoso. Man I'm glad you're back! Just yesterday I was just thinking "where tf is BoxingLegendsTV?" and boom an upload. Thanks for the vid!
Great list. Brought back alot of good memories . Roy Jones Jr was definitely my favorite too. I started watching him on Tuesday night fights and started following his career. And was hooked when he Faught James lights out Tony. Tony was talking smack before the fight and Roy just said I'll be ur huckleberry. From the movie tombstone as it was just starting to play at the theater. Dam that was long ago . And of course Roy wooped his ass along with everyone for along time. I believe he finally lost the fire to fight , cause Antonio tarver beat him twice but wasn't near as good, he just had Roy's number. And ole Bernard Hopkins showed Antonio that he wasn't as good as he thought. Which I enjoyed alot. Man, this brings back memories. I never missed a Roy Jones fight and grew up watching Mike Tyson on HBO. I stopped watching when Roy stopped fighting the first time. Roy will always be my favorite. U have to like a boxer that loves to Bass fish and raise chickens
@@brandonchan2120 You're telling me the greatest of all time, the only 3 time world HEAVYWEIGHT champion, who weighed over 90 kg of muscle yet moved like a lightweight, has nothing on pac man? Please. Go learn boxing history.
Watching these athletes go, you do well reminding that you didn't edit frame speed because it seriously looks supernatural to me. I can't help but think that if I was on the ring against them, my brain wouldn't have time to process one punch before the next 5 punches land. Fantastic channel by the way.
Roy Jones for the Fast STYLE and Pure ART!!! Tyson for Fast Power Combinations. Roy had great skill in not being hit, Tyson's defense would hunker down like a Turtle. Roy would Keep out the way completely
I think Boxing Legends TV is the only person in the world that can challenge me about how much I love and appreciate Roy Jones! I'm on your side brother! History will absolve us!
I watch your videos all the time and never subscribed, that's changed now. Can you do a video essay about boxing in anime to celebrate the return of BLTV?
@@Alvin-1138 Yeah and Terry claim he did hold back from knocking out Ray Leonard in his prime because he was one of his idols. I personally believe that because after the knock downs he didn't become the animal he usually becomes after wobbling or knocking down a fighter
Trainer dying and Mike signing w/ Don King was his downfall. If he would have avoided the King trap as many other fighters did as well there is no debate where he would have ended up when all said and done.
@Brian Cahoon Yeah i do agree with you, i just get a bit frustrated at times when people watch his highlights and say he was smashing everyone. I wish he had the chance to fight better people as he fought journeymen for a long long time. I am a Tyson fan however but be honest he did lose everytime he stepped up a level
another FLIPino trying to take credit for another person's accomplishment. Philippines is still governed by corrupt politicians & government officials, because FLIPinos are not wise voters, hence your country, the Philippines, will always be a shithole regardless of who wins a boxing match or beauty pageant.
Patikol Sulu Well fuck, alright chill. Jesus Christ lmao. I mean Lazy Kat is right, he did whoop his ass but I don't see why you have to get so ass hurt. Why are you going off on the Philipines now? Just because Thurman got his ass beat? It's just a comment stating his opinion on the fight, there's no need to start talking about how the Philipines is a "shit hole".
Lazy Kat there's a boxing match right here. But seriously i hate racists with a passion. Somebody needs to be tracked down and taught a few lessons in manners and respect. The Philippines is the greatest country in the world that i know of.
Going back through your library has been a treat! Before hitting play, I hope you remind those who may have forgotten about a prime RJJ before he started going up in weight. Both hands could leave you horizontal. He was power. AND he was fast. He would put on a show. He’d hit you from every angle. And he’d punish every mistake. He could be slick. He could be savage. But It was always a good fight to watch
Just wished there was video of Sugar Ray Robinson in his prime - there were no video until he was older - and those are spectacular! Most greats that saw him said he was the best - Including Ali - who was emulating Sugar. I think Robinson was like Roy but with better defense and stamina. I love Roy btw - but I don't think this generation has the proper perspective of Sugar Ray Robinson.
Please believe that even the most casual people of this sport will say Sugar Ray Robinson is the greatest boxer.They know beautiful art when they see it because there’s few people who literally make boxing look beautiful and Robinson is literally the first person to do that nobody else boxes like him except Kid Gavilan Ezzard Charles and Muhammad Ali
Only 2 fighter has real power punch" the smalle'st heavyweight" TYSON" & the smalle'st welterweight PACMAN" THIS 2 IS SMALLER IN THEIR DIVISION" BUT CRACK BIG DUD"S THIS TWO IS THE REAL LEGEND" OF THE SPORTS.. BEATTING BIG GUYS"
Jordan Menchaca hey mochacha" did ali go up 4 division 'to fight bigger & go up again much bigger" then go up again to much much bigger" them fight giants" this is did he does that?? I dont think" so" the great's for me" is to beat his opponent that no one believe he can beat them " that is the real meanning of a real greatness" HOW.CAN YOU BE CALLED GREATS IF YOU BEAT YOUR OPPONENT THAT EVERYBODY KNOW'S YOU WIN ALREADY" COZ OF YOUR TOMUCH ADVANTAGE" THAT IS SHIT TO ME'
When you're idolised by the greatest heavyweight in Joe Lois and Cassius Clay. It's means you're the baddest man on the planet. Sugar Ray was just a head of his time
Pac Man is one of my favorite fighters. I hate when people use this phrase because it's all for trolling. However, I DO understand that he is essentially all his "homeland" fans have so that's the main reason. I might even feel the same. Anyway, still love Pac Man and I hope he hangs 'em up before being embarrassed like a lot of greats.
11:26 "Last night I cut the light out off my bedroom, hit the switch, was in the bed before the room was dark" LOL epic!

This was amazing!!!!! Love how Tyson came on to Tupac's Hail Mary,
They are also good friends
Finally the goat of the RUclips boxing videos is back 🥊

Hi
Hanzagod is prob the best
GREAT pick with Roy Jones Jr at number 1!! I watched the entire video and when it got down to number 3, I was thinking, where the hell is Roy Jones Jr at on this list!
Roy is the GOAT!!
my favorit is , and will remain forever Roy Jones jr
I like how when they showed mike tyson they start playin 2pac music 😉
Cause he a real nigga😂😂Ignore the voice tho
Like Pac says when Tyson get in the ring he knock mother fuckers out what's gonna happen when 2pac get in the ring
Hail Mary
Song name pls :)
Uppercut
Muhammad Ali and mike tyson two legend boxer in history.
Muhammad Ali greatest ever boxer of all time.May Allah rest his soul in Jannah . Aameen

@@illidanisdead6924 what? Praying for his soul to rest in peace.whats ur trouble.Make ur own way and stop refuting without purpose.
@@propheticadmirer1701 lol you know he was known as cassius clay back than in his prime, he changed his name to muhammad ali, best boxer in history or at least one of the best.
@@illidanisdead6924 what do u mean racist ideoloque.He converted to Islam.And Even Mike Tyson had converted to Islam.The greatest and one of the best boxers of all times.
Love how the songs changed with the era. That Pete Rock & CL Smooth drop during the #1 spot.
Pacquiao and Tyson both have speed AND power. 2 of my favs...
marcjon000 so did Naseem Hamed he should be on this
@@Balal8281 it's his favourite not yours. lmfao
@@Balal8281how is he fast when he couldn't even deal with Barrera LOL
asdfdg11 b/c it’s video taped. Lol everyone knows he was out of shape vs Barrera and had broken hands 8 months prior. He wasn’t training seriously because he couldn’t, he was around 30 pounds overweight just 2 weeks before the fight and had to shed it all off that fast which is terrible for your body. What he should’ve done is pushed his fight date back and trained/recovered properly but he got too greedy and wanted the money. He had to shadow box in the sauna for hours the night before that fight to lose a couple more pounds. Idk how smart your are but just watching that fight you can see Naseem was not hisself, he was tired and sloppy. That was the only fight he didn’t summersault into the ring. Despite that he still went the whole 12 rounds and even won like 4 of them, never got knocked down. Barrera is a good fighter too so that speaks for itself.
@@Balal8281 no, before he was fighting boxers with no name in boxing. Then he tried to go for a big fish and he couldnt do it.
Hell yeah you are back ! 👍👍👍👍
roy jones in his prime was like a Picasso painting.just a picture of perfection.

And Mayweather was a Michelangelo painting.
Roy was good but I think he used peds. Time will tell as the truth always comes out.
Hope I am wrong because He was on another level, an unbelievable level.
Drugs have destroyed to many good fighters before their prime time. A naturally gifted fighter should not have to compete against "enhanced" odds that risk his or her life. Whether they use or not.
CallMeSnowwy Why not? Five-division world champion, three-time(or four-time) lineal champion, 23 champs/former champs in his record, and undefeated at the most elite competition. Mayweather was just simply great.

Ali’s boxing glues were literally an extension of his hands. It was so natural to him, he didn’t need tremendous power to put on man down.
Of course Roy is in your #1 spot 😁 I'm biased too. IMO no one did it like Roy Jones Jr, a true virtuoso. Man I'm glad you're back! Just yesterday I was just thinking "where tf is BoxingLegendsTV?" and boom an upload. Thanks for the vid!
Calzaghe did it better.
roy jones yup yup yup

09:00 love how hail mary by 2pac starts playing when Tyson comes up on the list. They were friends.
Well 2pac did die after he saw a Mike Tyson fight.
Same here

Hail Mary Makaveli The Don still lives on
Highlight of the video for me!
'last night I turned the lights off and was in bed before the room was dark'😂
@: ok
By the time I stung u like a bee I flew off like a butterfly
Man, Roy Jones Jr. didn't just beat champions & contenders, he made them look stupid. It really wasn't fair how talented he was. Thanks for this vid🍻
Hearing Hail Mary playing in the back as you announced The Iron Mike gave me chills.
Exactly I’m about to replay that again
13:05 'he was too fast'... Your face agrees
Nemanja Djukic he said it best. F***er was too fast.
@@TerryByrd17 My. Mum. 💖💐😕😍😘💏💑👪💝
Yeah,, those fast hands obviously came with a little power behind them, leaving the look of brutality and pain on that face..
He kept it real.
@Dylan Thomas your very confident for a wanker
Great list. Brought back alot of good memories . Roy Jones Jr was definitely my favorite too. I started watching him on Tuesday night fights and started following his career. And was hooked when he Faught James lights out Tony. Tony was talking smack before the fight and Roy just said I'll be ur huckleberry. From the movie tombstone as it was just starting to play at the theater. Dam that was long ago . And of course Roy wooped his ass along with everyone for along time. I believe he finally lost the fire to fight , cause Antonio tarver beat him twice but wasn't near as good, he just had Roy's number. And ole Bernard Hopkins showed Antonio that he wasn't as good as he thought. Which I enjoyed alot. Man, this brings back memories. I never missed a Roy Jones fight and grew up watching Mike Tyson on HBO. I stopped watching when Roy stopped fighting the first time. Roy will always be my favorite. U have to like a boxer that loves to Bass fish and raise chickens
proud filipino !here glad to see manny here viva filipinas🇵🇭🔥
Manny pacquiao is the best.. Best in attitude also.. Very humble men..
Of all time🤦🤦?????
Not even close to Ali
@@salex354 Ali is nothing compared to pac man
@@brandonchan2120 You're telling me the greatest of all time, the only 3 time world HEAVYWEIGHT champion, who weighed over 90 kg of muscle yet moved like a lightweight, has nothing on pac man? Please. Go learn boxing history.
@Vlad The Narrator That I agree with, he is a living legend.
Roy Jones definitely one of my favorites. He was so fast he could afford to be disrespectful.
He always gets a pass for getting disrespectful.
Came here for Tyson and Muhammad Ali. Rest in Peace Champ 🥊🥊
Tyson ain't dead
This guy does not know boxing for sure he only knows the popular ones
He said champ not champs, so he probably was just referring to ali

Watching these athletes go, you do well reminding that you didn't edit frame speed because it seriously looks supernatural to me. I can't help but think that if I was on the ring against them, my brain wouldn't have time to process one punch before the next 5 punches land. Fantastic channel by the way.
Roy Jones for the Fast STYLE and Pure ART!!! Tyson for Fast Power Combinations. Roy had great skill in not being hit, Tyson's defense would hunker down like a Turtle. Roy would Keep out the way completely
I was waiting for Roy the whole time!! Love it!!
Roy in his prime is the GOAT !!! People don't seem to understand how dominant and unreal he was
Sweet Pea should be here.
The fastest Ali/Clay is faster than the fastest Floyd Patterson. But otherwise solid list.
John von Atzigen yes I agree Sweetpea Whittaker should have made the list. One of my all time favorite fighters along with Roy Jones
John von Atzigen agreed. Kept waiting for Whitaker and consequently am still waiting. Pernell was great.
No Bullshit....he could have taken a few people spot on here!
Right Pernell Sweet Pea Whitaker was one of my favorites and fast too
You forgot one of the great fast boxer ever, you forgot about PRINCE NASSEM!!! :"(

Anime Balls Deep fockin hell you guys are boxing fans?!?
Ab bas yes
Ab bas have you ever heard of Hajime no Ippo or Megalo Box?
Anime Balls Deep tell him about Joe & Ippo
I watch your videos all the time and never subscribed, that's changed now. Can you do a video essay about boxing in anime to celebrate the return of BLTV?
5:10 Very interesting reaction from Terry when Leonard state it was his last fight. You could tell Terry didn't want to hear that
I saw that, probably one of his inspirations, when growing up.
@@Alvin-1138 Yeah and Terry claim he did hold back from knocking out Ray Leonard in his prime because he was one of his idols. I personally believe that because after the knock downs he didn't become the animal he usually becomes after wobbling or knocking down a fighter
Haha im glad they put macho on there he was lightning back in day

Any chance of a soundtrack list (maybe an idea for future vids) great beats for edits ?! :D

Glad to see youre back
You’re back! Clicked ASAP
Those were the good old days, I miss those awesome boxers.
you know
i think that you can keep Roy Jones on the top of the list when it comes to overall boxing in history
My favourite boxer is mike Tyson because he took on huge guys and managed to beat them easily
Mike tyson n manny pacman is the best
Tyson could have been the best if he continued training for fights, but instead he chose to be cocky and arrogant and became washed up
Who did he beat that is worth talking about?
Trainer dying and Mike signing w/ Don King was his downfall. If he would have avoided the King trap as many other fighters did as well there is no debate where he would have ended up when all said and done.
@Brian Cahoon Yeah i do agree with you, i just get a bit frustrated at times when people watch his highlights and say he was smashing everyone. I wish he had the chance to fight better people as he fought journeymen for a long long time. I am a Tyson fan however but be honest he did lose everytime he stepped up a level
The fact that this channel gives fighters like Eddie Hopson their props just shows what type of fan this content creator is.
I was actually just watching this to see how far my idol Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao got into the list.
Manny pacquiao taught Thurman a lesson CX my family got hyped when he knocked Thurman down
another FLIPino trying to take credit for another person's accomplishment. Philippines is still governed by corrupt politicians & government officials, because FLIPinos are not wise voters, hence your country, the Philippines, will always be a shithole regardless of who wins a boxing match or beauty pageant.
Patikol Sulu Well fuck, alright chill. Jesus Christ lmao. I mean Lazy Kat is right, he did whoop his ass but I don't see why you have to get so ass hurt. Why are you going off on the Philipines now? Just because Thurman got his ass beat? It's just a comment stating his opinion on the fight, there's no need to start talking about how the Philipines is a "shit hole".
Lazy Kat there's a boxing match right here. But seriously i hate racists with a passion. Somebody needs to be tracked down and taught a few lessons in manners and respect. The Philippines is the greatest country in the world that i know of.
Patikol Sulu lol gtfo immature fuck. You are the reason the world is messed up
@Sudan Nutella I'm from the Philippines, and yes, our country is a shit hole with one of the dumbest population on Earth.
91rated for tyson is disrespect
Nah
I think his speed also play in his power so its not about his power...when his power and speed are combine it has a big damage on his opponent so...
I think 100 is grizzly bear so 91 Tyson if fine
Hell tyson hit his women with 93. You think it was less in the ring?
Anyone having a higher power rating than Tyson on this list is a disgrace.
Who's for manny pacquaio ✔️✔️✔️

1!€+111€++1.g,
Going back through your library has been a treat! Before hitting play, I hope you remind those who may have forgotten about a prime RJJ before he started going up in weight. Both hands could leave you horizontal. He was power. AND he was fast. He would put on a show. He’d hit you from every angle. And he’d punish every mistake. He could be slick. He could be savage. But It was always a good fight to watch
Just wished there was video of Sugar Ray Robinson in his prime - there were no video until he was older - and those are spectacular! Most greats that saw him said he was the best - Including Ali - who was emulating Sugar. I think Robinson was like Roy but with better defense and stamina. I love Roy btw - but I don't think this generation has the proper perspective of Sugar Ray Robinson.
Please believe that even the most casual people of this sport will say Sugar Ray Robinson is the greatest boxer.They know beautiful art when they see it because there’s few people who literally make boxing look beautiful and Robinson is literally the first person to do that nobody else boxes like him except Kid Gavilan Ezzard Charles and Muhammad Ali

Pac Man is one of my favorite fighters. I hate when people use this phrase because it's all for trolling. However, I DO understand that he is essentially all his "homeland" fans have so that's the main reason. I might even feel the same. Anyway, still love Pac Man and I hope he hangs 'em up before being embarrassed like a lot of greats.
