    Because we need the pool to be racially balanced... that's the ONLY way he's on it.

    Russell, Mayweather, Pacquiao, & Khan. In that order.

    Although in fairness to vnyc, the way he worded that, he may realize full well that Lomachenko isn't faster but was just saying that he "looked much faster than Russell" (for the above reasons)

    Russell is faster, but Lomachenko is the more skilled fighter overall. That was the difference in the fight.

    Russell-Lomachenko is one of the best recent examples of timing beating speed.

    I don't know, Russell has fast hands but overall he doesn't seem to be as quick as someone like Pacquiao, Gamboa or Khan. Maybe it's his style or skill.

    You seriously believe that those three are faster P4P than Amir Khan? To me he is the p4p king in speed. No other speed guy makes other speed guys look like **** like amir. For example the Malignaggi, Alexander, Judah etc.

    PS where is the love for raushee ******, i know he ain't all that as a fighter but damn that kid is fast. Inoue deserves a shout-out too.
