Daniel Jacobs educating GGG fans on what a real Cruiserweight looks like

Same day weigh in's with hydration test.... Professional Boxing won't do it thou because its all about the money **** safety.

This is what a cruiserweight looks like! I was 174lbs fight night for the record. Skills & determination got me thru not a weight advantage https://t.co/WiCg2doDv1— Daniel Jacobs (@DanielJacobsTKO) August 31, 2017 But but but but Danny Jacobs was a cruiser wt doe pic.twitter.com/4mtp6PSECX— Rico (@rgst89) August 15, 2017 Mr Jacobs, we don't listen to GG fans when it comes to describing his or your fight with him. They cried that you were a CW that night because they had to find a reason why GG didn't ko you or put you down the way Sergio Mora did. They tried to use the mandatory weigh in before the fight as an excuse and all kinds of other excuses from carrying Jacobs to whatever...and their man won lol. You didn't have to do this. We knew this-us real boxing fans did.

but it wasnt really...that was a bunch of people scoring the fight a lot closer than it should have been simply because jacobs was doing better than expected(or cause they hate ggg so of course they are going to have bad cards) if you remember some people had jacobs winning the first 3 rounds which is absurd as ggg clearly won 1 and 3 so they got off to a bad start in scoring and prob never recovered because if you think jacobs won those rounds then you prob think he won a lot of others when in reality he won 4-5 tops and they were all close. Just so that we're clear before going any further, you can't point to a single round where you can clearly say "that one went to Jacobs"?

Danny Jacobs didn't do the early morning weigh-in so some Golovkin fans claimed he cheated and came in extremely heavy which is why he was able to go 12 rounds and give a good fight Okay I do remember some noise about this now that you bring it up. My hot takes: Fighters have no obligation to carry out unofficial same day weigh ins. BUT it's a bad look for Jacobs that he didn't want to do one. BUT all that is irrelevant for how the fight went, Jacobs could have put in that same performance with or without a weight advantage. I had it Golovkin 7-5 the night of the fight and after the match I thought a lot more of Jacobs as a potentially elite fighter, I still rate it Golovkin's best win.

Posting a pic of a cw off season to prove his point he didn't weigh over 175 lbs. FACEPALM.

Jacobs can cry all he wants. He will get the rematch he's looking for (despite demanding no rematch clause in the first fight, so he could avoid one if he won), lose, and again claim he was robbed. The real question is whether Danny plans on fighting anyone before he gets his second payday with GGG.

Since when did Jacobs know what he weighed on fight night? In the press conference after the fight he claimed not to know.

Golovkin-Jacobs was a 7-5/6-6 fight (with some folks seeing Jacobs just edge the fight), and Golovkin fans kept viewing Jacobs as a bigger and bigger man, to try and explain the performance. Similar to the fallout from the first McGregor-Diaz fight; Diaz went from a 155lb fighter taking a fight on 20-day's notice, to a 200lb man who simply absorbed a beating and overwhelmed with his size. (On it's face, a 45lb weight cut on less than two weeks notice is a preposterous idea) but it wasnt really...that was a bunch of people scoring the fight a lot closer than it should have been simply because jacobs was doing better than expected(or cause they hate ggg so of course they are going to have bad cards) if you remember some people had jacobs winning the first 3 rounds which is absurd as ggg clearly won 1 and 3 so they got off to a bad start in scoring and prob never recovered because if you think jacobs won those rounds then you prob think he won a lot of others when in reality he won 4-5 tops and they were all close.

he said he weighed 174 he couldnt be lying!!! when time to prove how much he weighed came...he refused. hes just trying to save face and appeal to his "i support this guy no matter what" fanbase like trump supporters

We should do fine. I hope so. :headbang: :headbang: REPEAT!!

Everyone knows the force generated from the swing and miss of Jacobs right hand would KO Gassiev from Barclays Center all the way back to Russia. This ^^^^ Gassiev is a stiff Euro bum like GGG..

That's an opinion. He looked in phenomenal shape to me. He had already put on 16 lbs, I doubt another 4 would have been the difference. What doesn't make any sense is his team specifically said he weighed 176 lbs at 8am. We have no reason to doubt that. Conte estimated he'd be 178 to 180 lbs by the evening. That gain makes sense. What doesn't make sense is losing 2 pounds from the morning to the evening on the day of the fight. But maybe I'll learn something new. Maybe there is some actual evidence showing Jacobs did weigh 174 lbs on the night of the fight. Doesn't HBO offer fight night weigh in? I'm not actually saying Jacobs is lying but without some evidence it seems to run counter intuitive to gaining weight the day of the fight. They do, but Jacobs declined to participate.

Idk man. Our bullpen is dog sh.t. I'm no where near as optimistic as I was last year. I only really trust Wade Davis out of the pen. You liking our chances? We should do fine. I hope so. :headbang:

He declined to weigh in on fight night and thus whatever he claims he was means nothing. He could have been 174, or he could have been 190. Just by the eye test, and the fact that he also declined the IBF weigh in, clearly means he was much heavier and didn't want his weight revealed. Golovkin didn't weigh-in in the arena either, so not sure what your beef is.

Can someone give me some backstory on what this thread is even about? I can't remember any controversy about weight the night of the fight, just remember thinking Jacobs looked like the bigger dude. Also Jacobs fought a great competitive fight and his performance made me think better of him, dunno why anyone would need to hunt for excuses to explain his success. Golovkin-Jacobs was a 7-5/6-6 fight (with some folks seeing Jacobs just edge the fight), and Golovkin fans kept viewing Jacobs as a bigger and bigger man, to try and explain the performance. Similar to the fallout from the first McGregor-Diaz fight; Diaz went from a 155lb fighter taking a fight on 20-day's notice, to a 200lb man who simply absorbed a beating and overwhelmed with his size. (On it's face, a 45lb weight cut on less than two weeks notice is a preposterous idea)

If he gained 20 pounds he would have fatigued in the later rounds ^^^this, exactly

You know what a Strawman's fallacy is? I think most people saw GGG fight a Super MW, not a cruiserweight. His team claimed Jacobs was 176 pounds the day of the fight, which is what Ward weighed in some of his 168's fights. He might have been 174 tho, but still he had a big size advantage. Golovkin was basically maxed out at the IBF check weight early Saturday morning, so what are you talking about? The moment that each guy walked into the ring, no matter how folks want to cut it, Golovkin may have given up 3lbs.

A lot of people whining and complaining about Jacobs following the rules of the belts he was fighting for. One of the weirdest things I've seen yet

your boxing knowledge shouldnt be allowed in this forum sir... :lol1: Idk why it's so hard for fans to concede when another fighter is good. I like GGG a lot, but I'm a boxing fan before I'm a fan of a fighter. Jacobs fought his ass off, and I scored the fight 6-6 with the KD being the difference

Off subject, Do you think we got it again this year? The fuggin Dodgers doe. Go Cubs Idk man. Our bullpen is dog sh.t. I'm no where near as optimistic as I was last year. I only really trust Wade Davis out of the pen. You liking our chances?
