I have been looking at some fights at "work" and I saw two in which the winners put whippings on their opponents with the jab as their major weapon. This bring the question as to who has put on the most devestating performance with the jab that you have seen? Note that this is just for my info and a little fun, so be cool.
Winky v Tito
Galzaghe v Biko
Holmes Vs. Mercer
winky v tito is the one that springs to mind also.
Wlad over Austin is one of the most recent in mind
Ike Quartey vs Jung-Oh Park, dear me was that a painful fight to watch. Ike Quartey hit him over and over again with his piston like left jab. One of the most brutal jabbing exhibitions i've ever seen.
Also Larry Holmes vs Earnie Shavers 1 was a great jabbing exhibition too.
Larry was the best jabber I've seenQuote:

Felix Sturm vs Oscar de la Hoya...I think Sturm broke Oscars nose with his jab...

Cotto's jab is pretty decent. He knocked down Gomez and Clottey (not dominating though) with it.
Larry Holmes vs Tex Cobb comes to mind. For 15 rounds he couldn't miss with the jab or the straight right
Recently I'd say Sirhy Dzinzurik over Dawson. Real nice jab with pop. Why has this guy fell out of the rankings...someone give him a big name fight, he is ready as he ever will be.All time best jab is Easton Assassin.
Up until Johnson sparked him out Jr. Jones was dominating him with the jab badly. I mean just stiffing him up with the jab constantly.
Wright-Tito like somebody mentioned, but also W. Klitschko against Brewster, Rahman, Eddie Chambers, as his fight with Eddie Brock progressed that one as well.
Mayweather-Marquez comes to mind. De La Hoya-Mayorga.
Cotto beat Mosley by using the jab
Here is another one , Winky Wright v Steve Foster , Winky almost beat the clubfighter Foster to death with the jab.
vitali over peter
wlad over peter
anyone who is over 6`2 over peter

The Bika fight was an awful brawling performance by Calzaghe he hardly used the jab.
I'm surprised no one has mentioned Ali vs. Patterson I.
Buster Douglas vs Tyson was a pretty damn good showing of the jab
Lewis dominated Tua with 1 hanfd. The jab was in his face all night.
The 2nd time he fought Rahman his jab was powerful and totally shut the champ down.
So did Forrest.Quote:

Buster Douglas vs Tyson for sure.
I know it was when Joe injured his hand and jabbed to victory so you could be right.Quote:

Roy Jones v Vinny Pazienza, Roy used it effectively for the first time and it was awesome to watch him obliterate Vinny.
