Comments Thread For: Jacobs - The King of Brooklyn Boxing Defends His Crown

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

The train was rolling and no one – especially not Dmitry Pirog – was going to stop Daniel Jacobs from winning his first world title on July 31, 2010. Less than a minute into the fifth round though, “The Golden Child” was stopped by Pirog in their WBO middleweight championship bout.

It was Jacobs’s first pro loss, and then everything went haywire. The Brooklynite rebounded with two knockout wins, but cancer proved to be a tougher opponent to beat back. Jacobs did win that battle though, and after returning to the ring in October of 2012, boxing’s “Miracle Man” made a beeline for the 160-pound title, which he won by defeating Jarrod Fletcher in August of last year.

You think Haymon will let Canelo, or Golovkin run through his stable like a cheap whore house for the right price? Or would that be too devastating for business?

Big fight coming up!!!

Hope i get to see it

I'll be pulling Jacobs to get the win, it would be the icing on the cake of a great comeback story.

I've been excited to see this one for awhile, I think this could be Quillin's first L but it won't be an easy night for either guy. Great middleweight fight, always love the cross-town rivals angle on a big fight too.

Sorry I'm long since over the Jacobs bandwagon. Guy's a true phoney, starting with the 'no rematch' vs Mora debacle... and going downhill from there. Both fighters have delusional ideas about their relevance in the sport, but Jacobs is truly king of b.s. mountain on that subject. I'd luv seeing Quillin drop Jacobs for the count. Quillin vs GGG would be alot more interesting than Jacobs vs GGG.... or Jacobs vs Lee, Canelo, Cotto, or any MW in the top ten.

the tiniest of flies has a bigger buzz than this overhyped undercard-caliber fight

WBA can eat a d*ck with their 3 titles per weight class.

Danny "Pirogs Son" Jacobs vs Peter "Wont Rematch Andy Lee in Dublin" Quillin.

A fight for the ages.
