Loma throws more jabs than Calzaghe, Margo or Williams did, he applies constant pressure like Pryor did. Armstrong`s work-rate was insane.
Tyson Fury can hold an intense pace throughout a fight & always dig deep late which is where he excels unlike pretty much all the other heavyweights who are blown out by round 6 with any pressure put on them. He might be massive but he's built for stamina Marcos Maidana for a power puncher had an extremely high work rate. He could average 800-1000 punches over 12 rounds. I think Floyd overlooked this aspect of Maidana's game although he did run out of steam later against Floyd. Younger Pacquiao Errol Spence seems to be relentless. Brook couldn't handle the pace Spence was setting late fight.
Armstrong, Pryor, Kassim Ouma, Wayne Mccollough, Jeff Fenech , Calzaghe, Lamotta, Jirov, L. Spinks all come to mind.

Great mention. This guy was a complete badass in my book. He played baseball as a teen, but saw a Tatsuyoshi match on TV randomly, and suddenly decided to become a boxer. At 17, he basically said, '**** school, Tokyo here I come!', and moved. Had no amateur fights, went straight pro and then became a champ and had some great fights, especially against Sakamoto.
Loma's pressure is underrated because he does everything else so well. When his man is tired that is when he cranks it up he does it in bursts and breaks guys down mentally.
Lomachenko's jab is not really an active offensive weapon. It's primarily used as a rangefinder and distraction tool. There's almost no power behind it, so it's easy to keep flicking it out. I wouldn't call it work rate in the traditional sense.
