    Great list but you should have replaced khan with camacho or floyd mayweather.
    P4p. fastest hands of all time has to be roy jones, ray leonard,taylor and pac follow in that order.

    I was thinking about including, camacho, judah and a few more but i feel these boxers are just that faster!
    I would have with mayweather but he's known for his great reflexes and speed of counter punching and that just leads to another aspect of the question. I just wanted to keep it short and sweet

    With handspeed and skills like that how did he never become a big name?

    But yeah I vote Roy Jones, though a 130 Hector Macho has the fastest hands I've ever seen.

    see people will say jones,but thats only compared to people he fought in his division.

    i think khan has the fastest combinations.not most powerful or amazing,but fastest.

    Meldrick Taylor in his prime was amazingly fast. But it is a sad thing that people often remembers him only of one thing and everyone knows what it is..
    But his handspeed.. He had it and he was maybe the fasterst boxer ever in his prime.
