    Mayweather has an underrated jab, it's a very good weapon to the body.

    Joe Calzaghe? How's he not getting a mention? Probably the most underrated part of his game. He outjabbed Kessler most of the time...the southpaw stance and awkwardness helps but still...

    Very True...not spectacular but it was mighty effective and as you say he outjabbed Kessler and that's saying something.

    Plus the Evans Ashira fight, I know he's hardly a top level boxer, he had to wint the fight without any other shot due to busting his hand.

    Roy jones had a pretty good jab. Can't remember what fight it was but he threw about a 6 jab lightning fast combo :lol:

    I recall Sturm's jab giving DLH nightmares.

    How has Frank Bruno not be mentioned? His jab was incredibly strong.
