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)

Just looked it up on YT, looked like more of a hook.

Good shout on his jab though.

It is a really hard punch, I wondered if he were a converted southpaw at one time; he's scored knockdowns with it.

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.
