    Why ask a question you already know the answer to?

    khan, his hands are so fast they make his chin weak from the air turbulance they create.

    According to the votes.. it's divided. I personally think Khan got the much faster hands.. but I don't know much about Duran.

    Duran at lightweight was quicker for properly delivered leads and combo's.

    Khan's a quicker shoeshiner.Probably could be quicker with single shots too, but he's incompent in his punchpicking.

    Its a question of who is quicker not who has the better technique.

    Only thing that matters is that ready for 2 rounds Duran would KTFO Khan.

    Leonard said Duran was very fast, deceptivly fast. Anyways, Duran kills Khan. Literally.

    Amir's the fastest I've ever seen. Faster than Camacho, Taylor etc.

    Amir, even when sitting down on his punches. But the gap isn't huge.
