Comments Thread For: Quillin Wants To Avoid One Of Boxing’s ‘Biggest Upsets’

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Peter Quillin understands why boxing fans and media prefer talking about his much-discussed showdown with Daniel Jacobs later this year.

He just doesn’t like it.

The former WBO middleweight champion understands that unless he defeats Australian underdog Michael Zerafa on Sept. 12 in Mashantucket, Conn., his fight against Jacobs (30-1, 27 KOs) won’t happen Dec. 5 at Barclays Center in Brooklyn. Several Internet sports books have installed Quillin, 32, as a 100-1 favorite over the 23-year-old Zerafa (17-1, 9 KOs), who lost his only fight outside of Australia and hasn’t fought anyone as good as Quillin (31-0-1, 22 KOs), a Grand Rapids, Michigan native.

What the hell has Quillin ever done to over look anybody?

[Hougigo]

Lol, of course his first main event is against a stripper. Not even the world title fight goes over this one

I used to be a big Quillin fan given his style and sharing his hometown, but he's just regressed so much from what he started out to be. Kushner used to push him then he signed with Schaeffer/Haymon and they would set him up with guys on the slide which is fine, but he needed to take more than a few fights every year to keep developing. And then his attitude went punk, making excuses to avoid any challenging fights.

People will give Golovkin **** for guys like Adama and Monroe, but those two would push Quillin and Jacobs. Whereas K2 rejected potential fights with Fernando Guerrero and Jarrod Fletcher because they feared they wouldn't be competitive enough.

Quillen is really delusional. He's acting as if him vs Jacobs is some sort of megafight. It's not.

[shoog]

why even have golovkins name coming out of your mouth, PBC dont make fights like that, only setups, or fights where a pbc fighter comes out ahead. a fight against zefara is one of the biggest upsets in boxing just by being announced.

[The Big Dunn]
