The armor is actually lighter than it looks. It shouldn't hinder his leg speed by a lot, maybe only by 3-4% at most. If you see him fight, his arm strength is still pretty good. If you look at his concept art, he already wears armor a lot of armor on his arms. Also, his leg strength counteracts the armor problem, plus adds more impact to his kicks due to the tight fitting. But I'll try to reduce the armor. The whole point is to protect the weaker spots. Weight really isn't an issue.
