    Pac throws faster combos but Floyd has the faster one shot.

    overall quickness is floyd. Pac is very aggressive and fights by throwing hard and fast shots. Floyd is more calculating. Counter type. Getting to the point matters with him but he can throw blinding shots if he wants. plus over movement, reflex and body, head, and parrying he is quick on those.

    Quickest hands: Manny Pacquiao -- His punches don’t come from your basic boxing style; they come from all sorts of weird angles. That’s what makes him difficult.

    PAC with absolutely no doubt.

    De la Hoya's corner said when they threw in the towel:
    'He's just too fast' Pac was beating him to the punch EVERYTIME, to the point where De La Hoya just stopped throwing punches.

    DLH didn't have the same problem with Mayweather.

    And when Mayweather Sr was asked who was faster out of Mayweather and Pac, Mayweather Sr just dodged the question.

    Mayweather has better timing and accuracy so when he pot shots it looks faster than it is.

    Floyd might have been faster in his prime, in present times though, Manny is definitely faster. Floyd isn't as quick as he used to be.

    Manny has faster hands but Floyd has better accuracy with his shots and his speed is not far behind Mannys neither

    In my opinion it hard to tell. Floyd has faster reactions than manny pac no doubt.

    But it hard to tell who has faster hands as Mayweather dont throw as many punches as pac per second It a hard comparison.

    Manny looks way fast by throwing several punches per second.
    But if Floyd threw just as many punches he would look just as fast.

    Their styles make manny look faster. Tough call.:good

    Definitely Pacquiao. Even in one punch speed he is faster. Don't get me wrong Mayweather is fast but Pacquiao is definitely faster.
