Some people are born naturally athletic,meaning they are agile,have good reflex's and wonderful balance. Fast can just be fast,all athletic people are not fast and all fast people are not athletic...Amir Khan for example is fast but i would not call him athletic at all...and look at the Berto-Floyd fight perfect example of speed vs athletic person with speed

Jones was athletically gifted, James Toney had fast hands
Mayweather is athletically gifted(reflexes, speed, balance timing), Zab Judah was faster didn't have the over athleticism
