    The way Ward delivers his jab is a work of art. He uses it like a Swiss Army knife with 200 tools.
    The way he busted up Froch's face with his jab and left hook was amazing and the jab he displayed against Rodriquez was more like a powerful straight left.

    Who in boxing possesses a jab equal in effectiveness to Ward?

    Amir Imam, Broner, Floyd, Charlo bros, Badou Jack and Lara all have better jab than Ward.

    Maybe he could jab his name on a light heavyweight fight contract? Maybe?

    Crawford has a world class jab. Ward's is just in another orbit.

    That's great, but I want to see Ward at 175, been wanting it for years now.

    I agree that Ward had the best jab. Whether he still possesses it or not remains to be seen since we don't get to see him the ring more. It really is a pity because I love to see him work.

    K9's jab is in another galaxy, you'd need a death star to get there :nod

    The only one in your list comparable to Ward is Mayweather. All the others have great jabs, but not at the Ward/Mayweather level.

    GGG? GTFOH with that nonsense.
    No one knows how good GGG's jab or chin really are from the weak opposition he's faced.
    Due to this, GGG's name does not belong alongside the list world level TESTED champions like Ward and Mayweather.
