For pure hand speed no one touches Rigondeaux. And just having fast hands isn't enough. Timing your opponent, leg movement/speed, reaction time, ability to not get countered when throwing punches, etc. Floyd has faced fighters with fast hands...Khan just doesn't have the intangibles to beat someone of Mayweather's caliber. I love how some people make it seem like Floyd hasn't seen or will have trouble with something like fast hands or big power. It's his opponents who haven't seen anything close to his movement, defense, skill, and boxing IQ. Floyd is going to badly school Khan.
