Dirrel had the blur going on. By blur i mean, hand speed. It was freaky. Kids got a gift, too bad he fights like a track star.
Almost as fast as Linares - those hands.....my GOD. I thought the usual guys (Khan, Pac, Floyd, Judah, Russel, Gamboa) were quick. Then I saw linares.... whole new bag of wtf.

Linares is very fast, he was surpassing Pacman in sparring at times, but his durablity is questioned.

The day I saw Linares fight Larios though (live), I was in awe. Obviously he doesn't have all the tools, but just from speed alone - man oh man. To think, he showed up a few steps quicker in the DeMarco fight too.
Again, it's a gift. There are so many things people do in the gym and even trainers try to implement to build speed - but honestly, I think speed is about as god given as power is. It's not something you can teach/train. It just...."is".
As for the sparring session in question - I wish someone would have posted it. It was the highlight of the livestream. Dirrel and Arias were going off. Tons of "oooos" and "ahhhs" in the gym, was real good work for both guys.
