Strongest Jab in history

De La Hoya had a 'Strong' jab

 

I went back and watched Liston again. I'm not sure even Holmes and Ali's jabs quite match that. Even Foreman didn't step into it the way Liston did. That stepping-in aspect made Liston's reach even more indomitable.

So, for bludgeoning effect I give the award to Foreman. But for both power and execution I give it to Liston.

Overall effectiveness I have to give it to Holmes

 

Frank Bruno had a fantastic jab. Probably his main attribute, along with his power.

 

Since everyone is fixated on the heavies, Pinky and Seldon both had jabs that are worth a mention.

For light-heavies, Darius M had a wicked power jab.

 

Foreman was a beast when it came to the Jab. Pretty sure he could knock a tree down with that thing.

In the WW division I don't think Hearns is mentioned enough when it comes to the jab. Very quick and very dangerous.

Ali ofcourse had a devastating jab as well. His was based on speed a bit more than power but still a very hard jab.

Bob Foster without a doubt should be mentioned in any conversation about the jab. The man had whips for arms.

 

Great jab, 10/10 easily

 

Wlads, foreman’s, listons all stand out as the thudding destructive jabs for me. I think quartey as mentioned had an unbelievably good jab. Prime GGG had a brutal jab, heavy snappy and regular, a masterclass against Lemieux. Hearts was a great jabber to

 

Holmes, Foreman and Lewis.
