    Hi Guys. I´m a longtime reader of this forum but not really a boxing expert, so i wanted to hear some opinions of you since a lot of you seem to know what their talking about.
    After the Vitali Fight i had a discussion with a friend of mine about who has the better jab between the two brothers or in general what kind of jab is the better one. Wladimir´s textbookstyle jab, accurate, powerful and beautiful to watch or Vitali´s unorthodox and awkward looking jab with all those weird angles?
    In my opionion Vitali´s jab is more effective because you can´t really prepare or get used to it since you never know from what angle the next one will be coming from so his jab finds its target more and really wears you down and frustrates you more.It´s kind of a crazy ****** style...it may look awkward and random but its so damn effective...
    But then again i´m not really an expert so it would be nice to read some opinions.
    So what do you guys think which jab is the better one and if you are a boxer yourself, which one would you prefer yourself?

    Vitali has a cross style of European boxing and kickboxing, Vitali is much better than he looks. I saw Vitali knock Obed Sullivan across the right with a jab. Vitali changes his style some for each fight, he is very smart with a ring.

    I think Wladimir has a more powerful jab, but Vitali throws his jab from such good angles that he makes his more effective.

    Vitoli is better overall. Wlad got a better jab and cross. probably got more power, but vitoli is tougher, better stamina, more aggressive.

    Agree

    Sort of an Ali jab but with power...and a touch less speed there for.
