        As much credit as Floyd is why does he never really get credit for having some of the fastest hands in boxing? In his prime he was clearly faster than Pacquiao in 1 punches or Khan..just look at this.
        https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i8KEbrhOkZs Meldrick Taylor had fast hands.
        Nobody combined elite speed with timing like Floyd..except for Roy, Rigondeaux, Pacquiao.


        Khans speed is overrated, yes he had amazing/elite speed, but anybody can throw fast combinations at a world level when they're arm punches! His speed is also negated mostly cause his timing is horrible

                but just imagine if prime Khan had the explosive power of Pac to accompany that handspeed... sheesh

                    I thought Sergio Martinez was deceptively fast as well. And he threw punches from the most awkward angles.

                    Mike Tyson was very fast, but I think his timing was better than the handspeed. The way he could pivot on a dime was ridiculous.
