    He has fast single shot speed, but when it comes to actually putting punches together he doesn’t compete with the others on the list.

    It’s Khan imo. In his prime his speed was on a diff level. Roy was maybe more explosive but Khan had the faster combinations.

    ryan garcia is very fast so fast that you can not see the speed of his blows that is why his rivals fall a moment after garvia hits and his rivals do not realize that they were hit .. his body forces them to fall

    Yeah not completely fair as many are different weights. I would say Taylor for pure speed but Jones and Khan can't be ignored as at their respective weights they were both clearly far quicker than their contemporaries.

    Now that I think of it, I don’t think I’ve seen anyone faster than Gary Russell jr.

    I picked Pac because he's got the best combination of power and lightning fast speed.

    Ryan and Khan are maybe a tick faster, but they're painting shots.

    P4P = RJJ

    Fastest punches irrespective of weight = Khan's straight arm punches

    Most explosive/fastest power punch irrespective of weight = Garcia's left hook or Pacquiaos straight left

    Khan had the fastest hands, lessened however by the speed of his brain
