They say Ali had perfected six different ways of throwing the jab. Sounds to me like he takes the cake.Comment

i know liston with only 3 votes?
holmes had a beautiful jab, but sonny did more damage with his.....by far more damage. most people would be surprised that sonny being only 6 feet had 84 inch reach, that's longer than wlad's reach. anyway ill never believe that ali's job was better than holmes, liston or foreman, or even lewis jab. he rarely used him, people are giving him a lot of votes because he's Ali. but being one of the greatest fighters, doesnt mean you have the greatest jab.

easily larry holmes!
he had good speed AND power with his jab
ali had speed but less power (good snap though)
foreman and liston both had rock hard jabs but if they missed it took them longer to recover.Comment

Buster BABY!!!! Greatest Jab of ALL Time. If he fought like he did against Mike, he would have EASILY been the undisputed champ. But the money got to him, and that was it.Comment

i too admire buster's jab, that was his power punch. im still in awe every time i watch his fight with mike williams. glad you voted for him...someone had toComment

Liston and Larry Holmes, I voted for Liston because he doesn't have many votes...
Ali had a very fast and effective jab when he used it, both Ali and Holmes could win fights without throwing almost anything except the jab.
Joe Louis had a good jab too although it could also be used as a weakness of his.
Klitschko's jab will probably be rated up there someday...
Ali vs Young
Holmes vs Cooney
Liston vs WhitehurstLast edited by TheGreatA; 04-25-2008, 06:24 PM.Comment

holmes....a world class jab, but he could not deliver the pain quite like liston and foreman could. larry had lightening jab, but those guys had thunder. also holmes jab is better than alis' imo
