    Lewis, Foreman, Ali.

    Foreman said he would use his jab lightly. He said he would paw at the other fighter so that the other fighter would forget his power and think he was spent. This would give the other fighter a sense of security and make him come in close then KAPOW!

    :good

    Ray Mercer had beautiful jabs. So did Golota (during the Bowe fights).

    Mike Tyson has very underrated jabs too.

    Agreed.

    Liston and Holmes for me, though there have been some very good Heavyweight jabs. Foreman not included, although he seems to be getting mentioned for whatever reason.

    I've said it once and I'll say it again. As far as JABS go, Hasim Rahman's was a thing of beauty. It hard and accurate WHEN he decided to use it. It was practically a powershot itslef.

    Now remember, we're not talking about the best FIGHTER, but the best JAB


    Look here at how well he uses it against Meehan
