[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Barclays Center, Brooklyn, New York - In a fight for the vacant WBA 'regular' middleweight title, Daniel Jacobs (28-1, 25KOs) stopped Jarrod Fletcher (18-2, 10KOs) in the fifth round. An exchange of punches in the first round saw Fletcher get decked in the second minute. Feltcher made it up and took a beating until the close of the round. Fletcher, although still losing, was able to regroup in the second round. Feltcher was rocked again in the fourth, but fought his way out of trouble. During the fifth, Fletcher was doing well but then he was hurt bad and battered against the ropes until the referee jumped in as Fletcher went down again. [Click Here To Read More]

Perfect win for this guy,couldnt happen to anyone more deserving.Then to hear him call out Quillin loving the potential fight

In all honesty, he just won a made up title. GGG is the belt holder. Wouldn't it be better if they would just rank these guys properly then they could fight for the real title. Imagine what GGG would have done to Fletcher lol. At least Danny could be ranked #1 now and be in line for a GGG fight which would be great in N y.

Jacobs looked like a tank in there,what weight did he enter the ring in ? Stevens or Quillin make for great fights,no need to unify the WBA immediately,he will have 18 months before challenging for the title.

These ****ing networks are enabling corrupt bodies like the WBA.


Disgraceful stuff.

The belt was created so Fletcher would be fighting for a title as he was mandatory and the GGG fight with Geale coukd go ahead,I have no bother with that,we got to see the better match up.imagine we had to see Fletcher v GGG ! Jacobs profits from this and we as fans do too,we may see Quillin in a competitive fight now,unless he is scared of acquiring the WBA regular title and becoming mandated challenger to GGG ! He may demand Jacobs drop the belt to make the fight lol.

That's the thing, is Jacobs now the mandatory for GGG? If not, then what's the point? It just allows more people to duck fighting him in the long run.

He will have 18 months and a mandatory to face before GGG,likely Chudinov.after 18 months purses will be ordered,whoever is in receipt of the regular belt 18 months from now,unless the super champ vacates before that time.

Gotcha, thanks!! 18 months though, that stinks...hope Jacobs and quilled fight very soon at least then maybe the winner vs GGG mid next year.

These belts are created for extra sanctioning fees, nothing less.
