    True. He was huge for a flyweight though, the strength got him by Sasakul, who was a very good flyweight at the time and the legitimate champion in the division, having beaten Arbachakov.

      In this case I will mention Sharmba Mitchell then

Marquez, Barreara, and DLH did NOT have great handspeed. Do you guys know what having fast hands is? I don't think you do.
          really whats ur point? just to isolate handspeed? there are a lot of bums w/ quick handspeed that never make it to the top. judah is fast, but is he good? he turned into a bum when he faced someone just as fast like floyd or someone w/ decent quickness but very effective like cotto.

              So who cares about hand speed when you have no skill behind it. What I'm saying is that despite all of Judahs handspeed he could never use it when it counted.

                I wonder if Kevin has even seen those guys fight.

                They were blazing fast in their primes at their natural weights.



                JMM matched Pac punch for punch in both fights.

                  Pacquiao has fought guys with good hand speed, but no fighters with elite hand speed. Which is why he didn't want to fight Mosley...elite hand speed and power. Or Floyd...elite hand speed and defensive reflexes

                    LOL that was typical Judah man. Taht guy does not like getting hit PERIOD.

                    You know, he could use some of that stick training technique that Pac uses. Pac gets hit and he doesn't even notice.

                      Barrera had elite handspeed. No doubt.

                      Faster than Mosley had last weekend. Don't forget that by nature, smaller fighters are faster than bigger ones anyways. Alot of these smaller guys that Pac was fighting years ago had fast hands.
