Re: Best jabs in British Boxing?
IMO the top 3 are :
1 : Colin Lynes (Perfect)
2 : John McDermott (very underrated jab, Technically brilliant)
3 : Anthony Crolla (pops out of his high guard brilliantly with it, a real solid head snapper)

Freddie Welsh is the greatest left jab exponent this country has ever produced.

Kell Brook it's vicious
Re: Best jabs in British Boxing?
It is a really hard punch, I wondered if he were a converted southpaw at one time; he's scored knockdowns with it.Chambers2 wrote:Kell Brook it's vicious

Re: Best jabs in British Boxing?
just another shout out for colin lynes - he really worked on making that jab one of the best in the business. great punch - youngsters, watch and learn!
Re: Best jabs in British Boxing?
Brian Rose's jab is second to none, maybe somewhat biased opinion but cant think of anyone who uses there jab as effectively as he does. Ricky Burns has a good jab too.
