Best Jabbers of all time?

[Ogata]

Who are the greatest jabbers in boxing?

Also which fight showed the importance of having a great jab?

I know Tommy Hearns was known for having a great jab as did Larry Holmes but those are the two names that pops in my mind right now.

Then again, in the old Joe Rogan Podcasts, I remember Joe Rogan talking about some olympic gold medalist who turned pro and was known for having a great jab. I forgot his name but Joe mentioned him few times.

 

[Seano]

Miguel Cotto has a good jab.

Ike jab was always stiff and looked like it hurt.

 

[Escopeta]

Quartey's jab impresses me the most, due to the power he was able to generate. Cotto's is my favorite in the modern era.

 

[XThe GreatestX]

quarteys was good. Oscars was as well wenever he actually decided to use it

 

[burningspear]

Mikey's is pretty good.

 

[PivotPunch]

Larry Holmes, Ike Quartey, Muhammad Ali, Sonny Liston, Joe Louis, Wladimir Klitschko, Thomas Hearns and Pernell Whitaker are/were the best jabbers I can think of off the top of my head

 

[burningspear]

Larry and Ali for best ever. Pinklon Thomas had a beauty.

 

[Rozwell]

Winky Wright basically dominated Tito Trinidad with the jab alone.

 

[burningspear]

Wlad dominates a division with his

 

[BluntTrauma21]

Larry Holmes, Sonny Liston, Ali, Quartey, Hearns, Bob Foster, Lennox, Wlad, Winky, Sergio Martinez had a great jab when he used it (did Cotto retire him?), I don't know shit about Panama Al Brown except that I heard he had a really good jab and I also heard he was queer, not that that has anything to do with the topic at hand. Maybe the best gay jabber of all time?

[JayElectra]

Sumbu Kalambay had a great jab.

 

[AznCezi187]

Monzon had a good jab.

 

[Cracky]

I thought Jr. Jones had an amazing jab..

 

[Sunfish]

Lennox had a good jab. Vitali thinks so.

 

[Social Distance Warrior]

Maidana has a great one now.

But Larry Holmes easily...

Bazooka Quartey.

DLH had a great jab...

Often under utilized and over looked, Mike Tyson had some great jabs..

Miguel Cotto has a great one.

Mayweather has a good one..


IN the realm of MMA,

Nate Diaz has the best jab.

Kenny Florian as well (if he comes out of retirement.)

Trying to find some gifs of Larry Holmes jabbing, but couldnt find any...

he had some power and other tools in his arsenal.
