    The speed, the snap, the power. Say what you will about Jermall and his career, but the man has an utterly gorgeous jab. The way he varies the rhythm, the speed, and the pop on his jab is sublime. The way he varies it to head and body, and the way he sets up his jab by feinting with his lead hand and by establishing a rhythm with his feet are all top-notch. Does Jermall have an ATG and if so how highly would you rank it?

    Neither Charlo is fit to lace Larry Holme's shoes.

    JermAll's jab may be his best weapon but I really can't rank it amongst the greats.

    It's a damn shame how his career ended up; he was very talented.

    It was probably Charlo’s best weapon but still not as good as GGG’s jab who Charlo ducked for years.

    Charlo was an atg at absolutely nothing, his jab was solid though.

    I'm fairly sure that is not Jermall in either of those fights and they did the infamous switcheroo where Jermell took his place. In the Bundrake fight that man might actually be the third brother Jarmell. Can't say for sure and I'd need @Serge to confirm these doubts.

    Charlo’s career has been a major disappointment but don’t rewrite history when there’s tons of interviews with Abel clearly stating that they will never fight Charlo. Charlo definitely ducked Andrade but he was begging for GGG and that’s when Abel started to say bents doesn’t matter. Let’s not forget when GGG was holding out and demanding to have the bigger split in negotiations for the second Canelo fight, the WBC stated that he would have to fight Charlo or be stripped he quickly dropped that bigger split demand and sign the contract.

    Its certainly up in the conversation. GGG never wanted that smoke and Canelo waited until the man had fallen on hard times before ever giving him consideration. That's tells you plenty in and of itself. Even Jacobs thought it was too risky. He did possess one of the cleanest, most crispest straight lefts I have seen since Ike Quartet.
    He made a lot of money too

    He had a darn good jab. All that really needs to be said.

    Knowing the twins and their shady switcheroo shenanigans, I have good reason to suspect you may well be onto something here.

    Ordinarily I like to give everyone the benefit of the doubt but, as you well know, I've already exposed them once and any fighting twins who are willing to stoop so low that the smaller 154lb twin steps on the scale for the weigh in and then come fight night said twin's 154lb opponent finds themselves facing the 160lb twin who is 220lbs of ripped muscle are literally willing to do anything.

    Very good, even elite jab but not ATG
