    DeLaHoya V Miguel Angel Gonzalez was the greatest exhibition of jabbing that I have ever saw in all my years of watching fights
    Have a look at this...

    DLH was beating Floyd with the jab for the first 6 rounds. If he had carried on using it he would have won comfortably.

    Foster and Hearns are right up there, Arguello just below them.

    Chucho Castillo had an incredible jab.

    Pretty much all of the great's already mentioned, but a few notables missing. Junior Jones had a brilliant jab, as did Finito Lopez. Virgil Hill is another who could do a lot with the jab.

    Rudiger May's jab was extremely disproportionate to his talent. He was borderline useless in every other way. But he had a lovely jab.
