    Manny Pacquiao, Gullillermo Rigondeaux and Vasyl Lomachenko split the jab exceptionally.

          Specifically, I mean fighters who were best at countering opponents' jabs.

            Bernard was really good at taking away an opponents jab. Even though he couldn't do it to Jermain Taylor for some reason. It's quite a hard thing to spot visibly from the outside, but I can remember Bernard clearly doing it in at least 3 high profile fights.

                  No love for frazier? That bobbing and weaving style was so good, even Ali oculdn't jab his way into their first fight. Not to mention Frazier constantly countered jabs with not some islly, pit pat shot but a real damn, hard left hook.
