For me, Floyd's jab is at the current top. He sets the table of a fight with it and baffles most of his opponents with it. He's another one that may be able to win a fight with mainly his jab. I dislike Floyd but when he's in the ring I'm always amazed. I know much talk of the level of his competition is constantly brought up but it can't be denied his level of dominance facing whomever has been a major controversy but he is an absolutely wonder to watch in his ring and in the past decade plus I have seen very few have an answer to Floyd's jab. I felt Chino developed a great plan of attack and the best I have seen in many years. I can't disregard Paulies jab. Always impressive and it certainly helped him reach the impressive level he has. I will sometimes ppv Floyd just to see the dominance of his jab. On the other hand I would love to see him fight outside of Vegas without the shots in his hand. Who knows, maybe he would.. be just as impressive but there is a reason he hasn't fought out of Vegas in as long as I can remember. I realize a big part of that is money which I can't begrudge Floyd for but I would love to see him fight without those injections which I do consider PED.I could list more but seriously Floyd's cortisone enhanced jab is at the top of my list. I have always noticed some of the young guys comming up on Shobox do some excellent jab work.

Floyd's jab is a thing of beauty....very versatile. His jab to the body is one of the best punches in boxing (even Ward has said that he "stole" that punch from Floyd).
