    GGG says too much to reporters quite alot, it means just its too much with this bullshit and questions. Respect my current opponent, which was Geale at that time.

      160 is a very weak division, it's got some up and comers but lil g will probably duck them.
      Power and reach is what kept Jacobs in the fight, neither of which Ward excels at. Jacobs got outjabbed the whole night and had very little head movement. I wouldn't call combos Ward's strength either.

      Blah blah blah 160 is weak blah blah lil g. There's a whole squad of you morons whose only reason to visit NSB is to pat each other on the back while saying 'lil g'.

      This fight had nothing to do with Ward. Go talk about his rematch clause with kovalev.

        I've been telling everyone, GGG has trouble dealing with lateral footwork. I saw flashes of it with Monroe and Murray, it was confirmed with Brook, and on full display over 12 with Jacobs.

        Also, look at how Jacobs so easily controlled the distance. Imagine Ward-level distance control + body work on the inside. Not even a competitive fight.
        I've no idea why some posters try to argue for GG in this fantasy match. They should go back to talking about Canelo.

            talking about ward-ggg is like talking about joshua-ward..

            ward is not able to use his ugly tactics against man his size. kovalev made fool of him a few times he tried.
            p2p genna destroys ward no doubt about that, but the difference between the size of two man is 2 weight divisions. pointless discussion.

            first time ward wasn't the bigger man in the ring he was put down and was lifting opponent's leg hoping to survive.

              Blah blah blah 160 is weak blah blah lil g. Too dumb to come up with original insults? There's a whole squad of you morons whose only reason to visit NSB is to pat each other on the back while saying 'lil g'.
              So a guy like Brook's power is enough to lift lil gift off his feet but SOG's isn't HAHA.

              Ward's been fighting p4p competition since his early 20's, when you have a resume as quality as his you're less likely to get a record with a high KO ratio. Look at lil gift going 12 with a top 5 guy in his division tonight. Ward has the size, raw strength (admitted by several opponents), footwork, jab, combo punching, body punching, power etc. to maul lil gift.

              Jacobs was using a jab followed by lateral movement to get off the ropes, lil gift couldn't get his offense off. That's management of distance. His head movement on the ropes also had lil gift looking slow and uncoordinated.

              I could just imagine what SOG would do pumping his jab to the stomach, smothering him on the inside, creating angles teeing off on his skull.

                  I don't knock GGG for this anymore. Dude is in his 30s and needs to cash out in all these belts and title defenses before it's too late.

                    Its even much more obvious why GGG ducked Andre.

                      It was obvious to anyone with a boxing IQ why GGG bytched up and ran from the ward fight. Jacobs just made it clear for the GGG dyck riders because Jacobs just did a fraction of what ward is better at to GGG. easy fight for ward
