    Russle jr and gamboa but they are midgets so its kind of not fair. Khan is at least 5'10 and he is very very fast.

    Russell Jr.

    Super fast, without ever looking wild.

    Tomasz Adamek.

    He could alter the score on a judge's card without anyone seeing or noticing it.

    okay, khan looks fast and he easily is one of the top 5 fastest dudes on the planet, along with guys like gamboa, judah, pacquiao and donaire.

    but if we talk fastest of em all, than I think I have found him, like you said, gary looks a bit faster. I mean that combo from him, truly I have not seen anything faster since like 5 years or so. shadow boxing from pacquiao does not count. :lol:

    It terms of pure handspeed the top 3 are Khan, Russell Jr and Linares for me.

    Haven't seen the last two in the flesh but i've seen Khan from a ringside seat on more than one occasion, and he's faster than most Flyweights.

    Khan and Russel Jr. Khans faster on the outside, Russel Jr's faster on the inside.

    Zab is very, very fast, but he looked like he was in slow motion when he fought Khan. That fight alone shows the difference between the two and rules Zab out of the running.
