    Prime RJ had terrific hand speed but he wasnt as fluid in his combinations as Pac or Leonard. Maybe it was poor technique, I dunno.

      Khan is an arm puncher, he has the kind of speed that I myself would not rate and it's not even better than the two guys you mentioned on top of that.

        Crawford is a better combination puncher with a more lethal killer streak than Floyd ever was and is probably just as quick in single shots. However, his footwork is slower and he takes a few more shots, then again, that is down to him going to look for the kill, rather than simply skip his way for 12 rounds.
        Crawford doesn't match Mayweather in singular punch speed or combinations, especially if we're talking Mayweather in his physical prime.

        As for the TS, Crawford has very very fast hands, especially throwing singular shots.
