    Floyd doesn't have the same power in his jab, in my opinion

    I think I have the same list like emeritus, I consider wlad #1 and cotto # 2 out of that list but the other 3 are very close imo.
    They all have great jabs.

    Something about Cotto's jab I absolutely love. It's a beauty.

    And Khan's actually.

    The thing with khan is I get the feeling his jab isnt very accurate, not like devon alexander with his stay away from me jab, but it could be sharper and more accurate then it is now.

    -Wladimir Klitschko (great weapon, as the earlier poster said, ATG heavyweight jab)
    -Mayweather / Cotto (about equal to me when I try to judge the ratio of importance between Mayweathers quicker, well timed jab or Cotto's offensive powerful strafing jab)
    -Khan (I think the opposition has been largely tailor made for his jab to look well)
    -Froch (I do not think of Froch as having a good jab, relative to other top 50 P4P guys)

    This would not be my active top 5.

    vlad has a knockback jab, floyds is the longest and snappiest, but i dont think its hi best punch, which is his straight right, so - hard to count it up there with trademark jabs like sugar ray, ali, etc.

    it has a rythm to it, it goes perfectly with his footwork. best to watch jab compared to the others in my opinion
