Does Golovkin have the best jab in the sport?

Prefer Charlo's, Gvzodyk's, Bivols.

Good jab but lacks the variety and is brought back too low.

YES. In 2017 he beat two elite fighters by primarily using his jab. Nobody else’s jab commands that type of respect from elite opponents.

One of the most beautiful and vicious jabs I can remember was Jermain Taylor's. It was something else in his prime. GGG does have a great jab as well.

All the best to Taylor.

its up there i guess I like when fighters put something behind the jab hate seeing a fighter paw with it or just flicking it out as a force of habit with no intent

[Summilux]

Almost as good as Ryan Garcia's.

Yes, it's crazy because Bruce Lee would have a similar stance when he jabbed, I saw a video once comparing the 2. Its the way the wieght is distributed along with his balance and stance. He is never off balance and never leaves his defensive posture.


This is a longer version of the video you posted. Notice at 1:44 the jab abuse on Canela..... He landed 129 Jabs that had Canela shook.

Bro, this is great. Remember when dumb a$$es were challenging people to post a GGG highlight reel against Canelo?? Well, here should a logn one with just a jab! Lmao.

Gotta try and find that post.

It's definitely up there. Jermall Charlo has a great jab and so does Kovalev.

What's more impressive to me about Golovkin's jab, is he finds way to land it despite:

a) Not having a significant height & reach advantage
b) Not being an extremely fast puncher
