    Have you really watched those fights?
    I know it's the twelfth round so they are a bit tired...but this looks amateurish man...and compare to GGG-Jacobs 12th round as well.

    I mean in what world can someone say Monzon has a great jab, relative to say someone like GGG...makes no sense.

    I don't think I've ever seen such a listless jab, from someone who people say has a great jab...do you have video evidence of Monzon having a great jab, sincere question?

          1. Roberto Duran (Unquestionably belongs in the top five. Just no debate. And, in my opinion, THE greatest Latino boxer of all time.)

          2. Julio Cesar Chávez, Sr. (My solid number two. Everyone that comes after is debatable as to where they belong on the list, or even if they belong at all.)

          3. Carlos Monzon (One of the greatest middleweights of all time. Some will argue, the greatest.)

          4. Salvador Sánchez (Hard to believe this fighter gained such a record and reputation in only 23 years of life. A legend.)

          5. Jose Napoles (Grandpa Bernard asked why no love for the Cubans? Lol Well, this guy was one of the greatest welterweights of all time. A case can easily be made for his appearance on this list.)

          On another day I might include Argüello, Olivares, Jofre, De La Hoya, Gomez, Lopez, Ortiz or Gavilan. But the top two are like Mount Rushmore, carved in stone.

                Lol...he has one of the best jabs I've ever seen...I think most people would say he has a great jab...not sure what people are seeing with saying Monzon has one though...you don't think GGG has a great jab?
