Amir Khan's handspeed

Where does it rank amongst the current crop of fighters?

 

Highly, he puts his punch's together well also.

 

the double jab he admittedly copied from mayweather, and it looks like a great itmitation.

 

Got to be up there, hes pretty damn quick

 

Mayweather does not jab very much. He throw's lead rights more than he jabs. The double jab is much more like what Calzaghe does.

 

he looks fast because he doesn't put his body behind the punches, he does pitter patter shots.

 

I agree. But I think he has good pop when he actually plants his feet.

Obviously this is not the best analogy, but he punch's a bit like Leonard in the way he will throw 3 60% shots and then a big one at the end.

 

top 10 easy

 

He's very fast, probably the fastest of the current crop of prospects. Berto and Khan both have impressive hand speed.

 

.....a jab is a jab wtf are you talking about man??? atsch

 

probably the way he throws the double jab.

 

He's obviously an FMJ fanboy. He thinks a double jab is copyrighted by the arsehole.

 

definitely. RJJ, Mayweather, Zab, then probably Amir.

 

I'd say gamboa was faster, i'd have them 2 in the top 5 p4p with floyd, zab and RJJ with calzaghe just behind them

 

Vernon Paris is just as fast as Khan and he doeesn't pitty patty shots. It's just that he doesn't get the worldwide coverage Khan get's.
