People need to make up their mind about jabs.

revelated · 12:57 AM

Mayweather/Pacquiao: "Nah bruh, you can't win a fight with just a jab"/"The pitty pat punches, it's not enough! It's not enough to win the fight!"

Garcia/Thurman: "Garcia won that, all Thurman did was jab and run"

Holyfield/Valuev: "The right man won, all Holyfield did was jab"

Canelo/Golovkin: "ggg's only consistent success was his jab, no body shots, very few actual clean shots to the head"

Yet...

Klitschko/Fury: "Klitschko won that fight, his jab controlled it!"

Golovkin/Jacobs: "Golovkin clearly controlled the fight with his jab, that's why he won doe"

Eubank/Saunders: "Eubank got exposed, Saunders' jab was in Eubank's face all night long"

Mayweather/McGregor: "McGregor dominated the first four rounds with his jab"

Make up your mind. Either an effective jab wins the fight or it doesn't.

Jabs are important but power punches are supposed to count more. And theres different kinds of jabs

By that logic, Golovkin lost last night.

Are all jabs created equal? Is Paulies jab the same as GGG? One snaps your head back and swells you up, the other makes you feel like a flea bit you..

A jab and footwork are the cornerstone of boxing.

If you have both, you have potential.

Was just about to post this.
GGG was snapping Jacobs head back all night with clean clear jabs. That's what won him the fight.

Good points. See if you can point out the posters that contradicted themselves with their opinions on those fights.

GGG's jabs are like power punches. Look at Jacob's face. his dark face hides the bruising but both his eyes were closed.

GGG just had a red cheek.

A jab is a jab bro. You don't score on how hard someone's punch hits. By that logic Shannon Briggs lost to Foreman in 97.

Golovkin's jab did more damage than most so called power punches than Jacobs.
