    also its the easiest way to get of first

      jabs are set-up punches that's why most of the time it's the first punch you'd like to throw before a combination. now when you like to get inside you'd definitely want to try to shorten the gap between you and your opponent so it's better to throw shorter punches like hooks and uppercuts. those for me are better options than a jab while goin in. but like i said most of the time you'd want to start-off with a jab to setup your attack...but if you want the best result for inside fighting use hooks and uppercuts.
      anyone agree with this guy??

        Ask Buster Douglas what happens when you throw that uppercut from the outside.....assuming he can even remember the result.

          u dont start jabbing while ur are inside allready

          is that what u thought larry meant

          cause if u say yes u might be able to get uself off of the hook

          u use it to workur way inside while u are outside

                  No I don't, when was the last time you saw a fighter hurling uppercuts from the outside in an attempt to close in on his opponent?????
