    If it's from that list: Ward.

    A notable mention that probably won't be a popular choice but I think his 'chambered' jab is very good: Bermane Stiverne.

    :lol:

    Seriously man you don't HAVE to talk up mannys prior opponents in every post, especially not claiming rios has an excellent jab, I mean I've read some crazy stuff in my time but that is seriously mental. I mean I saw a similar viewpoint across the wall of a padded cell, written in ****.

    I saw that to. This guy is too much. Bringing in both Rios and Pac in the best jabs is pathetic at best.:-(

    Wlad can control the entire fight with just his jab alone, gotta be him for me, followed by ward and rigo.

    In fairness Rios' jab is pretty good. Not excellent but he can generate above average power into it.

    Roberto Garcia says Rios has the best jab amongst the fighters he's trained:

    Rios doesn't have the best jab.... never uses it...

    It's a powerfull jab when he does use it but it's slow & he rarely throws it.

    Addre Ward's jab is more better than Vlad's and 3x better than Golovkin's.

    Ward's jab is accurate and has a lot of power.
    It travels to it's target like a bullet while Vlad's hammer is as slow as a thrown beach ball.

    We've only seen GGG' jab against tomato cans like Geale, so he's really not even in the competition.
