    LMFAO@Czyz calling it a 'shotgun jab'. What he should have been saying is 'wet toast chin'.

    Goes to show why Norris always made sure to call out much smaller fighters.

    he would have been brutalised by just about anyone in the middleweight top ten for much of his reign.

    I'd take most big punching welterweights to do the trick on him, to say nothing of the middleweights.

    Hearns would drop him in a heap of course, and Tito would do him in as well after some initial problems. Someone like Jose Luis Lopez wouldn't be without a chance either.

    Lamon Brewster made Wlad's legs buckle in the 3rd round of there first fight, Jones was laughing all night at Wlad's weak chin, he even said something along the lines of "He wouldnt want to get in the ring with me, with a chin like that".

    amazing then brelands on both side of the coin :think

    i remeber him knocking lloyd honeyghan down hard with jabs. brelands jab was said by starling to be as hard as some fighters right hands.

    i remember james toney being briefly floored by peter from a jab.

    Liston could throw an ugly jab with a lot of steam behind it.

    I remember reading that the comeback Foreman's jab was comparable to the cross of many fighters.

    Hasim Rahman knocked a journeyman (actually a tomato can, but anyway) out with a jab, but something stank about that knockout. I wouldn't be surprised if the other guy didn't dive, honestly.

    I forget his name but it was embarrasing. Rahman did possess an excellent jab however.
