    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.

    Floyds never faced anyone with khans speed I don't care what you say khans going to give floyd problems he's going to have faster hands and be throwing a lot of punches, if khan can win the 1st few rounds and get into a good rhythm floyds got his hardest fight since Castillo 1. I fully expect floyd to win but it's not going to be easy.

    So the formula to give Floyd one of his hardest fights is just hand speed?! Because i fail to see what else Khan brings to the table. Please explain to me what in Khan's extremely underwhelming resume makes you think he will give one of the best p4p fighters of all time such a hard fight? How is he going to find "a good rhythm" against the most intelligent, adaptable fighter in the game...a defensive wizard who specializes in getting his opponents out of rhythm/fight plan.

    Well it's obviously not just hand speed but I do think speed is the main thing that will give floyd problems we have seen him in with every other type of fighter and apart from Castillo 1 no one has came close to beating floyd. Khans is not as bad as your making out and I actually think floyd is testing the water with khan cause he's fast and explosive I think if khan gives him a real hard fight he won't go near pacman.
