    In no particular order.

    Kell Brook (Its exactly why I think khan has no chance with him)
    Floyd (Obviously)
    Andrande
    GGG (Amazing timing and accuracy)
    Marquez (One of the best coutner punchers ever, and is still capable)


    yours?

    Yeah swift has good timing but he wouldn't be in my top 5.
    Sometimes he can be abit wild

    Not really...as someone said on another boxing site Garcia tends to just throw with other fighters..He does time some stuff pretty well...but normally it's at the consequence of getting hit himself...

    If you feint Garcia he will tend to immediately throw shots in response without much thought going into them...You see Morales mocking him in their first fight lol.

    Floyd has great timing, and that's one of the reasons I feel he'd beat Khan, because timing negates speed.

    I think the meaning of the phrase is, what good is speed if your opponent can hit you whenever you throw?

    They also say that timing beats power. Same thing: What good is power if you can't land?
