The best jabs are more like a martial arts back fist correct?

[Ray Corso]

It might be Larry Holmes or Sherlock Holmes but he better bring that jab back higher than his belly!
Even with that "snap" jab he's still pronating it. Without pronations you loose power you increase the chances of doing damage to your hand also.
Just hold a heavy bag and have someone throw punches incorperating pronation and with out. You can feel the differences immediately.

There isn't just one type of jab. One type is used in a combination and thrown with normal power. Another is a quick jab and used to put the opponent off balance. The third type is a hard jab and is usually used to get yourself out of a corner. You could probably come up with different versions of the jab but these are the three basic.

think of something original to say parrot, of course not but these guys use the backfist jab the majority of the time so your point is inane

I still wonder how this guy hasn't been banned permanently. Just say larry Holmes style jab. Stop using these extra words like back fist it's a jab. A fast snappy jab. Not a back fist jab, not a torque jab, a jab. A simple jab that's just fast and snappy

[nivek535]

the absolute best jab is the jab that varies and adapts in different situations..

For the best jab , ask the minions.

Btw , i noticed that my jabs are more fast and powerful when i use semi-transverse extension movement. Ofcourse with a snap.
