    No, he would be visably slower against Floyed or Pacquiao but he is fast.

    no doubt about it, he is the quickest combination puncher with his blurring hand speed.

    Mayweather probably has the quicker single shots.

    Pacman slightly slower but much more power obviously.

    He's fast and effective on the oustide.

    Slow and unresponsive on the inside.

    Speed only kills if you know how to use it.

    He is quick on his feet but I think Pac's and Money's hand speed = better.

    Khan moved like speedtrain around in the ring, he needs to be more economical with his stamina to avoid future 10th rounds.

    Yes!!

    Froch showed he can box be very economic and effective. The get the most reward with his movements. He didn't waste any movement. Khan is megafast but he outruns himself most of the time...

    I would agree in terms of "quickness" Gamboa, Manny, and Berto are all quicker than he is. Perhaps he means something different by "quickness" but he's not quicker than any one of these guys for sure.

    I think Gamboa is quicker and Rigondeaux is not that far behind those three (PAc, Fraud and Gamboa) especially with his left hand.

    I don't like Andre too much, but I agree he may be the one with the fastest hands.

    Hes fast no doubt but he isnt the fastest in the world. Gamboa..Berto..Pacquiao and Mayweather are all either as fast, faster...or just more effective with their speed.

    Maidana more than coped with his speed.

    Khans a good fighter but he needs to work on his accuracy.
