Jab duels.

Just in general, Klitschko-Fury should never be referenced for anything notable other than being a god awful fight thats saddled us with Tyson Fury for the past two years.

The most underrated display of using a jab to ruin a fighter would be what Arguello did to Mancini.

That fight was way more lopsided than most remember; Arguello destroyed Ray with his jab.

There are good calls in this thread... Holmes/Norton, De La Hoya/Quartey. Underrated would be Jose Luis Lopez versus Ike Quartey. Lopez threw his jab sparingly, but when he did, it was to great effect to the jab master Ike. The volume was low, but lack of pattern and timing meant the few times he threw it, it often landed, and clean with juice behind it.
 
Extremely technical fight, and it all came down to feints and jabs. Just watch the jab exchanges for the first 30 seconds of the fight. Toney said Mccallum was one of the fighters he learned the most from fighting. And that's saying something coming from Toney.

 
People always talk about the klitschko jabs, but I’m pretty sure Lennox showed how to win that one. Morales and Barrera obviously had its rock em sock em moments but there’s a series to watch if you want to learn how to jab as a little guy.
