Rank these jabs

Goddamn! Picking five from that list is tough man. Make it
easier, divide weight classes. Very tough I gotta say Ali,
Holmes, Bowe, DeLaHoya, Wlad. But hearns had a phenomenal
Jab, Lewis did as well, so does Liston. I can easily
replace those names with , Hearns, Lewis, and Liston.

 

In no particular order:

Liston
Winky
Quartey
Holmes
Johnson


On a related note, I've never been terribly impressed with Hagler's jab. It was a good range finder and he used it well to set up combinations, but it wasn't really an independent weapon for him the way it was with most of the others, or at least not in my opinion. I can't remember seeing Marvelous put on an amazing jabbing exhibition like Sweet Pea vs Nelson, or Winky vs. Trinidad. But hey, maybe that's because he was so versatile.

 

Long list......

Whitaker is best left jab I ever seen.....

Harold Johnson would be my pick as the best jab between all them...

 

i'll pick all the heavys

holmes
liston
wlad
lennox
ali
bowe

 

Why is Willie Pastrano not on the list?

 

Holmes
Quartey
Liston
Hearns
Ali
The rest are fairly even.

 

Tommy Hearns has to be right up there, considering the level of fighter that he regularly dominated with it.

 

Pastrano had one of the finest left jabs in history..in any division. It was observed in his time that he could "tattoo his name and address on an opponent's face". Just watch his success vs Harold Johnson..a guy who well versed in avoiding an opponent's jab.

 

too many get back to you on this one.
