Danny Jacobs: GGG is the best of my generation - Will fight him when money is right

Source: http://goo.gl/JOeyD4 He wants to fight GGG but wants to get paid more than what he was payed for Quillin. Says GGG is the best of his generation and that a fight against GGG is good for his legacy. Says GGG is the pinnacle of the MW division. BUT HE RESUME DOE. Jacobs (31-1, 28 knockouts) called Golovkin (35-0, 32 KOs) “the pinnacle of the division” and wants to win another title to enhance the matchup before they meet in a unification fight. “It’s the most competitive fight,” Jacobs said Saturday before a press conference to announce Jacobs as the new face of the “Brooklyn Boxing” lifestyle brand at Barclays Center. “I would like to fight GGG, but I just want people to understand my perspective and respect it and not look at it like, ‘Oh, he’s just trying to avoid GGG’ and stuff like that. No, I want to fight him. This is something for my legacy. I can’t retire and not say I fought the best in my generation – at least try.” Jacobs referenced his fight with Peter Quillin and how Jacobs waited more than a year to make the fight, during which time his purse ballooned from a proposed $250,000 to more than a cool million. “I’m not going to fight a guy like GGG and make the same amount of money for fighting a Peter Quillin,” Jacobs said. “It doesnt make sense. Yeah, GGG is on the list but it’s all about doing it when it makes sense,” Jacobs went on. “I’m not going to have people force me — meaning those Twitter thugs or anybody else force me to fight somebody when I can make so much more (money). So am I wrong to want these things to get as much as I can possible from a fight that is at the top notch level? Hate me if you want but that’s what it is.”
