          Stop it Ali had a fast jab, Larry Holmes had a thudding jab Ali had a book in which he talked a out a sparring partner and his damn jab he was talking about Holmes. I don't know if I ever seen a jab that controlled like Larry. Ali's Footwork in concert with his Jab were what he was known for Larry was all about his Jab.

              So not only does Wlad have a better jab ,apparently Wlad doesnt have a right hand in contrast to the unproven Parker which why Holmes claims Klitchko is a PHONY champion ?


              So glad this knuckle head is not in my top 5 Boxers head to head anymore !

                  At a time Wlad had a very good jab. But it has been getting worse for some years now. He hardly uses it as a full punch now. Just feinting, measuring etc.

                    Holmes and Ali were shells of themselves getting knocked out at the age Wladimir was when he barely lost to a huge, complicated Tyson Fury. Holmes would not have made it through Wladimir's title reign undefeated and has no signature wins on his resume other than old as dirt Ali.
