    In the grand scheme of things, he is one of the fastest ever at the weight. Consider how many fighters have fought at 140 that you've ever seen, and now think of how many were faster than Khan. Even the faded Zab was fast, as was Malignaggi, and Khan put both of them in the rare position of being out-sped. I haven't seen that happen to either fighter except for when they fought Khan.

    There's a few names that may pop into your head that we've seen mentioned so far that'd rank as faster, but even so, it's clear that you're working with perhaps a handful of names in a division that's had thousands of fighters who were great athletes in it. He's got to rank as one of the fastest 140 pounders ever, at least in my book.
