I use Lightweight because Mosley was at his fastest there and people seem to think prime too although his biggest fights came at the higher weights!

I don't know who to vote for yet. I know there isn't much of Pac to choose from at 135 but I still feel that would be somewhere close to his natural weight now anyway.
Both of them were fast and could be dead even, but I would have to go with Hector Camacho who was a tad bit faster imo.

At 3:22 of the vid.
They have similar speed, the biggest difference probably is that Pacquiao is smoother.
When Camacho fought top fighters the only way he was faster was in reverse!Quote:

Of the two you mentioned? Probably Shane.
Call me crazy and this is not a hack at Pac...
God knows I've become a huge fan of his.
But seriously it's not even close IMO.
SSM by a landslide.
Great call on Camacho & Williams.
Williams looks fast even in slow-mo replays. ;D
He never won a title but he did fight at 135 and I've yet to see faster hands.
"The Kid" Taylor.
Esteban De Jesus was very very fast so was Terrance Ali.
Shane Mosley had some of the quickest combinations i've ever seen, only a handful of fighters P4P had that type of speed.
Another underrated one is Howard Davis Jr, but his chin was below average.
Agree with ICE. Shane was the fastest Ive seen. He is a washed up old man now but in his prime he had speed.
I don't know for the all around skills but speed for speed, I feel like Sugar Shane had a bit more than the Pacman.
After going over Shanes fights again I definitely say Mosley was faster.
As for others mentioned like Camacho, I only mentioned Shane and Pac because of the upcoming bout. Not because I have been looking for the all time fastest lightweight.
Shane and its not really that close. Shane's hand speed was sick. Manny had one fight their and Shane destroyed the planet. Top 10 if not 5 or 6 lightweight all time.
Shane of course!
Shane masoley is just a bit faster, its just pacqiou puts together a lot more punches together at a time, mosely may be faster per punch per say but when it comes to combinations packman is the best tot ever do it
