    Who knows, maybe if someone made a split-screen Video comparison right next to each other we would know. One thing I do know, is that Manny Pacquiao is 20x the boxer Zab Judah could ever dream of being. Maybe even more then that. I'm going to go with Manny though. I think Zabs fast, but his speed has to be overrated a bit since Floyd, Cotto, Clottey didn't have trouble over coming his speed.

        Handspeed is close to equal... but foot movement, lateral movement, head movement.. all goto Pac. And those are the most important.

          Judah has faster handspeed than Pacquiao.

          Honestly, Manny Pacquiao's handspeed is very strange to me.

          Me and -Hyperion- were discussing this just the other day.

          When you watch videos of Pacquiao shadowboxing without gloves on, he's got some of the fastest hands I've ever seen. It's blazing.

          But when you get him in the ring, and you throw gloves on him, he doesn't appear nearly as fast.

          Check Zab's handspeed here at 1:49.



          That's a leaping uppercut, from way outside of range.

          I don't think many people who haven't boxed can really comprehend how hard it is to land a shot like that, let alone, land it as fast as Zab does. The clip starts and ends within the same second.

          That type of handspeed is scary.

            Sorry bro but Pacquiao wouldn't lose to Carlos Baldomir.

            I would say the are pretty much even when it comes to speed.

                I like that Judah video.

                That uppercut was a flash. I feel his handspeed has slowed abit since then though.

                  I agree with the first, but disagree with the latter.

                  Zab is clearly faster with his fists than Manny is.

                  The only reason people are picking Pacquiao is because Zab is a bit of a joke around here, and everybody is drunk on Pacquiao after the Hatton KO.

                  If you watch the footage of both men throwing in the ring, it isn't even close.

                    Prime for Prime, Zab. Currently, it's Manny.
