    Yes Barrera as well but JMM has better timing.

    Like i said before, Timing is a pre-requisite of speed!

      nobody is as quick as Floyd though, maybe Zab or PAC himself, it's not his fault.

      But at FW there are lots of quick fighters.

        I don't understand it either. Manny has 3 losses and he's one of the fastest fighters I have seen. Mosley has very fast hands, and lost 6 times. Jones has incredible handspeed even at this age and lost 7 times. Ali had super fast hands for a HW and lost 5 times. Whitaker had fast hands and lost 4 times. Handspeed alone doesn't win fights. But it does help to have fast hands.

          Sasakul had fast hands.

          Barrera had fast hands.

          Morales had fast hands.

          Marquez at 126, fast hands.

            Lets face it guys, PAC and the Pretender are head n' shoulders above everybody else.
            Wow at Cotto being quick now.

            Double-wow at naming sparring partners.

              And you made it a point to overexagerrate it like I knew a ***** would. *** Emmanual Augustas has fast hands but do you really want to compare him to fighters like Morales, Cotto, barrera, De La Hoya just because he has a "slick" style? No!!!


              Again what this really is about is *****s neverending crusade to somehow elevate Floyds wins against "black" fighters over Pac's wins over "Hispanic" fighters.

              As if somehow Black fighters are anymore dominent than Hispanic fighters simply becasue they are black.

                Zab was probably the fastest fighter that Mayweather has faced, simple as that. Manny hasn't faced anyone with handspeed as fast as Zab.
                it doesnt matter though is judah is that fast if he cant used that speed effectively, pac will still whup him much worse than floyd did at 147.

                but if this thread is all about handspeed w/o its effectiveness then it's a ******ed one. there were are a lot of fast fighters pac fought at the lower weights. were they effective? i guess not.

                  Chatchai Sasakul used to be a pretty good flyweight. I still don't know how he managed to lose to young Pacquiao.

That was against Zab Judah, and we all saw Zab beating Floyd to the punch early. Floyd had a ****y smirk on his face, but the simple truth of the matter is Floyd had NO idea where those punches were coming from, and he was getting his ASS KICKED by Zab early.
                    3 rounds to 9, was he really kickin May ass???? Yea he did KD May even tho it wasnt called but Zab won rounds 1,2, and 4. But hey if that wat u call whoopin May's ass then I guess u think Shane give him an ass whoopin too.

                      After Mayweather; Marquez has the best counterpunching I have seen in active boxers. But mentioning Marquez as having great handspeed is not even debatable. If Barrera and Marquez are the one's being mentioned as Pacquiao's opponents that had fast hands, then just you have no argument.
