Is Peter Quillin recieving the Danny Jacobs treatmeant

[artfuL_]

If you may not know, Danny Jacobs - a protected Golden Boy/Al Haymon product - was due to fight for a vacant title that was inexcusably stripped from Sergio Martinez.

The title at stake was the WBO which was shockingly won by a fighter who was engineered to be a stepping stone in Dmitry Pirog.

Fast forward just over 2 years and Pirog has also been irresponsibly stripped of the title he had won - Pirog had a legitimate injury that forced him out of the Golovkin fight and subsequently any fight for sometime whilst he was injured - and the pretender who has been promoted from interim status Hassan N'Dam N'Jikam is due to fight Peter Quillin on October 20th, another Golden Boy fighter for the same title where Jacobs failed.

Once must only wonder is Peter Quillin receiving the same treatment as a fellow stable-mate in the past and will this fight end in a similar fashion?

they learned from their mistake and if pq does win theyll keep him safe. he needs to take some risk to get a paper title they arent going to just give you one for no reason (unless you're njikam of course)

Pirog wasn't stripped because he was injured. He was stripped because he wasn't given the go-ahead to unify the title without first fighting his mandatory (N’Jikam), and went ahead and accepted the fight anyway.

Fighters often abandon their titles to accept big fights (Like Clottey who dropped his title to fight Margarito on HBO), but Pirog was unlucky and got injured, losing his title and payday in the process.

Most definitely, more so with Martinez and Golovkin on the scene.

Regardless of the exact reason - and thanks for pointing that out - but this has proved yet again that sanctioning body politics have come into effect as a unification bout should take precedence before a mandatory fight.

N'Jikam has avoided the likes of Golovkin, Sturm and Pirog and has still become a champion by way of a gift.

sturm fought geale yesterday instead of golovkin because it was a unification. pirog tries the same thing and gets stripped by the wbo

first of all i dont see what GBP has to do with this

it happens often and GBP doesnt do it more than anyone else, the wbo title was taken off martinez to be given to jacobs but his wbc title was handed over to chavez the same way, a top rank fighter.

and stop making things up, n'jikam hasnt passed up on all those fights just like pirog wasnt stripped bcuz of injury. sure both he and quillen are unworthy of a title shot, but that applies to the majority of fighters who fight for belts these days. chavez, pirog, jacobs, golovkin and arguably even geale werent worthy of title shots either.

fighters get moved up the rankings easily and awarded title shots before they deserve it. what else is new?

^GBP is the promoter of both fighters mentioned hence my point that they appear to be planning a similar course for Peter than they did Danny.

N'Jikam was an interim champion whilst Golovkin was and still is the regular champion. The two were ordered to fight and a purse bid had been actioned.

Seeing as though Sturm was another WBA champion I can't help but feel he would have been mentioned as a possible opponent also.

I think Quillin is better than Jacobs. N'Jikam is a solid step up in competition, is it Quillin's fault that it's for a title??? Should he refuse to fight for the title??? N'Jikam is a Top 10 MW, a solid opponent.

If Quillin can win this fight, I want to see Quillin-Pirog.
