Hand Speed...
What Brit had/has the best hand speed? Calzaghe will be hard to top. Khan has very fast hands but Calzaghe was far more accurate. Naz was quick but more unorthodox than anything. Lot of ko's from strange angles etc... Thoughts?

Speed alone? Khan.
Re: Hand Speed...
And he’s still got the speed. If only Khan had a chin. His ability never in question.

Re: Hand Speed...
Khan has atg level speed, it's almost like he's too fast for his own good sometimes and can't think fast enough to match his body

I always thought Carl Frampton at around 27-29 years old was pretty fast, and his combos had a bit of pop for a wee fella

Speed Alone - Khan x5.
I always thought he was created by a kid playing a boxing video game for the first time..,
"I've given myself 100 ATG speed, and haven't got any points left for chin.."

Re: Hand Speed...
Macarinelli showed good hand speed v Haye (who himself was quite quick),
Re: Hand Speed...
Hamed for sure but he used to throw from crazy angles.
Top fighters are so used to well schooled boxers.
Same for JC too.
Just on speed Khan

Andrew Selby is slick
Re: Hand Speed...
Khan. Outrageous hand speed. The combo he knocks Gomez down with in round 1 of their fight is just extraordinary.

Or much else!
Mind you with his handspeed, if he had a decent chin he’d have been very difficult to beat. Be very hard to outwork him
