    Usually, when I think of a fighter with a good jab, I think of a tall, rangy fighter who prefers to box. But what about some short, aggressive fighters with good jabs?

    Tyson and Duran are some.

    Napoles, Harada and Chang are the epitome of this. LaMotta, Foster and Gonzalez are good mentions too. GGG and Pacquiao as well.

    Lots of them tbh, most guys use it to set up shots, and fight at their preferred range. For example, Povetkin is probably the most underrated guy for it right now, he does this very well. Pacquiao is another underrated fighter for it.

    Carl Frampton used to have a beautiful double jab but he doesn't seem to throw it anymore

    Fighting Harada is the definition of this. Watch the Jofre, Kingpetch or Famechon bouts.

    Can't believe no one has mentioned Sergey Kovalev and Sonny Liston. I think they both KO'd someone with a jab.
