Comments Thread For: Jacobs Eager To Finally Fight Quillin, Not Golovkin

[SeekDaGreat]

Dude is a cancer survivor that is walking around with a trinket that if you called it a paper title, I'd be an insult to all paper champions. Exactly WTF does a fight with him do for GGG?

Its not about what the fight does for GGG. It's abouts what the fight does for him.

I don't know why all these fighters can't say just "This fight won't happen because of boxing politics" and period. It's really not their fault but if they just keep telling these "not now" "I focus to X right now" they just put themselves on harm's way and they will be seem like they are bullshitting. And if we watch it strictly they really do because it would be way more simple if they would just say "It's boxing politics". I don't think that that would be some kind of disrespect to Haymon either, I don't ask them to say "These *******s can't work together so I won't fight GGG".

Maybe he is being honest. Maybe he truly feels hes not ready. No problem with that. Quillin/jacobs is a damn good fight. No denying that.

And anyway GGG fans always saying the reason ge cant fight ward is cauae his next 2-3 fights are already lined up

So glad Haymon has been building this mega fight up, Quillin vs Jacobs is going to be one of the biggest undercard fights in the month.

It's freaking hilarious. Like Jacobs/Quillin needed to or has been built up as some big fight. Who besides hardcore fans gives a **** about either? That fight is less interesting now compared to a year ago.

These dudes duck golovkin with no shame.

He's like the 4th fighter who don't even bother with an excuse.

Just "nah, not gonna fight him, he too good, I'm not ready. "

People were talking and demanding that fight back in 2013. Let that sink in for a moment. Both fighters been saying for years and years I am eager to fight the other. And there are zero politics stopping this fight both guys are in house Haymon fighters yet they won't fight each other or the other top fighters at 160. Haymon

The boxing world we live in today is centered around risk vs reward. That's just how it is. Jacobs knows he can't beat GGG. So he's gonna milk the "cancer survivor turned world champion" run he's on for all its worth. Then if GGG is still there, he'll cash out.

To anybody who cares

heard from good source Danny Jacobs and Peter Quillin have verbal agreement in place to fight later this year or Jan at barclays if both win

quitin quillin cannot make 160

Both Quillin and Jacobs are a couple of lvls below GGG. Jacobs would get KTFO just like he did against Pirog. Quillin was having trouble with Rosado and konency, need I say more. I remember ppl were high on Quillin, I had no idea why, nothing really specific sticks out, he would also get KTFO against GGG.
But it's a good scrap nonetheless.
