    I don't know if he would qualify as a 'superb' technician but Jim Braddock was completely outjabbed by Tommy Loughran, who was a superb technician.

    Not sure if Tito could be classified as having a good jab (probably not, but better than some of the other jabs mentioned in this thread), but Whitaker probably outjabbed him there... of course, Felix kept gunning right hands and dispensed with the jab for the most part in that one...

    Perhaps Hector Camacho outjabbed Tito too, although I'd need to see that one again to confirm that memory isn't playing tricks on me...

    Qawi vs Saad (who, for all his flaws, had a really good jab). He also out-jabbed Holyfield for extended stretches of their first fight.

    Pryor vs Arguello, is a good example.
