    khan is fast for his weight, especially if he keeps it at 147, so p4p he is probably the fastest,

    faster guys are

    grj
    gamboa

    floyd is not fast and mannys speed seem to be shot.

    Khan is faster than mayweather and pacquaio. Those guys are too old to throw combinations anymore...they are still quick with just one punch, but khan is much more impressive because he can fire off four punches with blazing speed.

    I also think he's more impressive than gamboa because gamboa has tiny short little arms that are easy to throw quickly. Khan throws blistering combos from a mile away that have to cover MUCH more ground to reach the target.

    Thats why he's a dangerous fight for floyd...he can fire the jab and combinations from far away with those long arms and never be in range for the counter, nevermind his quick feet.

    Khan is faster than Manny now

    FACT.

    Manny in Marquez III and Bradley showed his age...

    Reason Khans handles Bradley probaly even better than Pac. age and speed.


    There are lots of people faster... but they are in lower weight divisions.

    Mayweather is pretty fast with his counters. Khan overall has better speed though.


    However fast he is against Garcia is how fast we should expect to see him @ 147.

    Gary Russell Jr

    I also think Joerg Linares is just as fast as Amir, if not faster. Although his chin might not be as good.

    ya, go ahead and log off, mannys speed is certainly not shot either you ****ing mouth breather

    :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:



    p4p khan probably is either the fastest or at least top 3 for hand speed, but thats about all he has. He fights like an amateur and runs, literally runs when he is in trouble. If he ever steps up and fights an actual ELITE fighter he's going to be exposed worse than he already has been.

    khan would never have lost to a bum like tim bradley no matter how amateurish he fights.

    Khan might have fast hands, but doesnt have the balance that Pac
    and Floyd have - he doesnt have the fluent body or head movement either.
