    Current: Sturm has a good one when he dedicates himself to it.
    All time: Arguello's jab was great to watch when he found range

    Yes, Sturm and Dawson have good jabs, so did Forrest (RIP). He dominated Mora with the jab in their rematch.

    Dr Harold Shipman would have been an excellent boxer. His jab was lethal.

    Kelly Pavlik also has a good jab. He outjabbed Taylor overall, which nobody else has done since Taylor has a decent jab himself.

    The jab is his staple diet, everything else comes off it.

    He didn't get it going against Hopkins..kinda like Calzaghe didn't, credit to Hopkins footwork.

    Hagler had a very hard and stiff southpaw jab used it very well.

    Warren says Holmes has best jab he's ever seen.....:think

    I like the names people have brought up.:good

    how did i not say Arguello i love the man forgot about his jab. Although he sometimes thought past his jab looking for the right hand or left hook and it resulted in a pawed jab.
