    To have a great shot at beating Floyd, one must have a great jab

    And if a fighter does not have a jab, the only other way, is if ones athletic ability is on par with Mayweather's.

      Yes. A good jab will **** with speedy fighters. Hence why Mosley looked like a workd beater before he fought Forrest and Wright.

        If Oscar kept his jab going he might have one.

            Something Pac/Cotto/Mosley all don't have. Williams jab is improving fight by fight

              ok lets end this myth..the reason oscar stopped throwing his jab is because floyd got the timing down and started countering with the right hand so oscar stopped using the jab

                I don't necessarily disagree with you, just saying, the jab was proving to be effective.

                  and cotto has a good one to go along with good body punching. cotto is the biggest threat to beating floyd.
