Does Golovkin have the best jab in the sport?

I like Jermall Charlos jab better. Wilder has a good one too

His jab kept stopping lemieux & jacobs in their tracks every time they started to make a move. I think the stereotype about being another planted feet power guy from some eastern land ala provodnikov and abraham runs so deep that it actually benefits him. As in his opponents train for a braindead slugfest then face a stalker/spoiler instead. His jab was an absolute weapon against Lemieux he absolutely dominated him due to that punch

It's one of the best. It was certainly good enough to beat Canelo IMO. Agreed, that was his best punch that fight

The jab — the hallmark of a champion. @GGGBoxing #boxing pic.twitter.com/Teiy6xjY2H— Lee Wylie (@leewylieboxing) May 7, 2018 It’s up there for sure, George Groves’ jab is excellent also IMO

The best now and one of the best ever

It's way up there for sure. Watching that video, I'd forgotten how often he landed it against Canelo.

Bro, this is great. Remember when dumb a$$es were challenging people to post a GGG highlight reel against Canelo?? Well, here should a logn one with just a jab! Lmao. Gotta try and find that post. Canelo was flustered all night man it wasn't even that close when you slow the rounds down on the amount of head snap backs from Canela. Canela lovers try and justify 3 rounds for a whole fight. Delusional. But hey they Gave him rounds against Floyd when he got mopped so no surprise..

That depends on who you ask. Questions like that are more a matter of opinion than provable fact. According to computer statistics he does have the best jab in boxing.He averages landing 10 jabs a round and no other boxer averages landing that many jabs a round. Also his jab is a smashing jab. A real head snapper. I think he does have boxing's best jab.

One of them for sure but probably the hardest.

What's more impressive to me about Golovkin's jab, is he finds way to land it despite: a) Not having a significant height & reach advantage b) Not being an extremely fast puncher Good points.

Yeah definitely one of the best...really like Kovalevs Jab aswell and Manny Rodriguez showcased his vs Butler

Not as good as Larry Holmes jab tho.

He Lands it more than anyone

It's definitely up there. Jermall Charlo has a great jab and so does Kovalev.

Yes, it's crazy because Bruce Lee would have a similar stance when he jabbed, I saw a video once comparing the 2. Its the way the wieght is distributed along with his balance and stance. He is never off balance and never leaves his defensive posture. This is a longer version of the video you posted. Notice at 1:44 the jab abuse on Canela..... He landed 129 Jabs that had Canela shook.
