        Great Guy, Really Good Boxing Analyst also Great Story of him battling back from Cancer but as far as in the Ring he is just OK nothing Special

        GGG takes his head off, I think Cotto and Andy Lee would beat him as well. He is just always on the ROPES for some and he does what a lot of fighters do in boxing today, he backs straight up when punches are coming at him. But when he comes forward and let those hands go, he is actually REALLY GOOD and has excellent Power.

          Until reading he was on the Paulie vs Garcia undercard.

            Mainly because few people pay any attention to him and those that do realize that it is hard to even consider him a champion (like Quigg situation but even worse) but cut him slack because he seems like a nice guy with a heartwarming story.

              Sergio Mora is taking this. From obscurity to Morasanity.

                Jacobs beat cancer which is awesome. But IMO he's just another unambitious guy in Haymon's stable like LSC who's content with fighting nobodies.

                  Well i don't really expect much from him. Plus that's all they're playing him as right now... a cancer survivor, nothing more. So yea...

                    Now hes fighting Mora.

                    Hes a MW Champ.

                    What is it?
                    Because he had cancer?
                    No one expects greatness from him?
                    We saw him get flatlined by Pirog already. So it's pity more than anything.

                      its the WBA... so I don't really "count" him as "champ".

                      The WBA "super" champ is the only "real" champ imo.
