Proper definition of a rangefinding jab

Top marks. Tomasz*, though.

 

Watch Mayweather Ortiz

 

No kind of dedication or power behind it. Don't see how you can be wobbled by a range finding jab lmao.

Don't think Tomasz vs Klit jab was one really...

There are better examples.

 

that is actually funny. lolled alots

 

Floyd, Jones, Toney, and Mosley all used range-finder jabs at times.

I think though Mosely occasionally used the rangefinder jab to great effect, especially in dialing in his overhand rights against Oscar he also tended to use the patting rangefinders too much and it cost him against Forrest, Cotto, and Wright when more assertive power jabs would have made a big difference.

Watch how Hearnz knocked Cuevaz out. He uses a noncommittal jab to bait an attempted left hook counter out of Cuevaz and timed it by following up with a right hand.

Mosley also used plenty of rangefinders against Floyd, but Floyd would counter it with a hook every time.

 

A+ for presentation and style.

 

Wath Floyd va Cotto, Floyd uses it before coming in with the right hook on numerous occasions

He also used it to set up the straight right vs Ortiz

 

Lol I've only just read the op, bravo

 

It's great you identify its effectiveness in setting up the overhand rights which caused the KO of so many opponents...I think it was later in his career that he relied solely on the pitty pat jab-overhand right combo...he used to be much more creative in setting up the right with his jab, going to the body and head up and down with great speed to bring the guard down and distract from the bomb that eventually dropped them.

Here's another example of a rangefinder jab doing exactly what bogo just described

 

Wikipedia is probably wondering why the entire country of Poland is flooding their bandwidth right now.

 

My personal favorite jab & the way it was used was by Marco Antonio Barrera.
