    Most times (against a determined opponent) a feint only works if you have a good jab to create the hesitation.

    So the jab is more important.

        Jabs, I think you need a jab before your opponent bites on your feints, you can feint all you want but if you don't have a jab, your opponent won't fall for those feints.

          Both can be important, but overall, it's obviously jabs. Shakin your opponent so you can land punches don't win you a fight, actually landin the ****in punches wins you a fight.

            A great jab is the best punch in boxing.

              Jab, because you dont have to feint to before you punch, if you use good head movement and punch of the angles that head movement creates. You can feint with jab anyway.


              0.33 noticed the feint with jab before he throws the hook.

                Feint in my opinion because you don't know which punch is coming next or where it's coming from.

                I've always been pretty good at avoiding jabs but feints often perplex me.

                  Nothing sets up other punches like a jab or maneuvers people into position where you can take advantage.

                    A Jab is also good for finding your range to set up other shots and jabbing helps you find your rhythm.
