I have been looking, although, my search is only so deep, but does anyone know off hand if Golovkin and Jacobs have a common opponent?
I can't find one, but I was hoping there was a significant one, from a glance via boxrec I don't see any.
if I missed it could you point me out, thanks .
Golovkin was given the WBA regular title after that fight, It was for the Interim. What a ****ing joke. :rofl:
I agree, it was a joke, but you know why that happened though don't you? The WBAs a fkn joke period.
Not surprising since they've been at different weight classes...but you'd think him and jacobs would have fought at least one common opponent being that they are both top guys in the same weight class.
Because Jacobs has not fought anyone. He has no notable accolades except for Quillin. I reckon Jacobs would lose to a couple of the guys on Golovkins resume(Murray, Monroe). Jacobs is barely a top guy.
Boxrec will give you their complete pro record. I don't think they have any opponents in common.
yeah I peeped it out and didn't see it but marchegiano did, they have one common opponent and they both had him out in the first round. milton nunez.
Marchegiano, thanks for finding the videos and posting them. sadly nunez didn't put up much opposition for either guy but I think GGG's shots had a more immediate effect, hell, he almost ko'd him with his first punch. thanks again.

Well lot's of Golovkin's opponents have fought below the middleweight limit (Brook, Rubio, Adama, Ishida, Rosado, and Ouma) so putting that in consideration lowers there chances of fighting common opponents, and Jacobs won his title in 2014
Same as for Canelo and Golovkin
