    which guys do you think aren't mentioned enough when it comes to their jabs?

    I think Michael Moorer had an excellent jab. It really bothered Holyfield both in terms of timing and power.

    Vito Antuofermo didn't use his jab too much but it was nice, probably Jung Koo Chang too.

    Duane Thomas had an incredibly hard jab. It was only delivered in 'ones', but a powerful jab.

    Henry Cooper had a good snappy jab. He boxed Brian London and Urtain's ears off with it.

    Golota is recognized as a good jabber, but he should be known as a brilliant one.

    Ken Norton had a terrific jab, excellent power and step in. I'm convinced had he used it more he would have won more.
