    Yeah I would agree with that. You saw even last night where Khan sort of tangled himself up in Devon. Pac tends to sort of spin out of it with his balance intact.

    Khans arms look freakishly long when he jabs. That is a h*ll of a jab. Would like to see him bring it back faster though... he seems to "admire his shots" sometimes and gets countered.

    Khan was great after he won silver in the 2004 olympics aged 17. Forget what he achieved in the pro ranks.

    stay mad :hi:

    ignorant bigot. At 17 you were stacking shelves in a supermarket.

    Khan is one of the best boxers out there today. YDKSAB if you can't see that.

    He's always been a good boxer. The only thing the haters have on him is he's been knocked out twice. You can't discredit Khan because of his knockout losses.

    It's boxing it happens with so many style clashes. That's what makes boxing great.

    Khan's hands are definitely faster. But like you said pac's have a lot more in sting in them. Man I'm just glad we're close to seeing mayweather against fast guys for a change.

    Khan has that jab to set up his combos while pac uses a lot of feints and awkward rhythm.

    I equate Khan's painting combos to Pac's training handspeed. Pac's faster. Single shots w/ power, Pac is faster.

    pacqiuao's lead left hand that he throws every now and again is unmatched.. maybe ever. sweet pea cant claim it.

    it's gonna land. maybe floyd can suck it up and roll with it (doubtful), but pacquiao's gonna land it.

    Pac's hands are NOT faster...his movement in and out of range is what people confuse for (hand)speed.

    Khan's hands are faster, not much on them, and not always on point, but they come extremely quick
