Comments Thread For: Daniel Jacobs Blasts Out Peter Quillin in One Round

[Progrssive_Jedi]

Arguing he is around the same skill level as GGG is pretty good for the Golden Boy. GGG is next level talent. Jacobs has always been close to next level talent, he just came up short when he had to prove it "Pirog".

I still think GGG wins the fight in dominating fashion, but Jacobs is a legit threat, and a legitimately talented fighter. He is not an Adriend Bronder or Andre Berto, he is an Andre Ward.

I'd have to see him take some shots to believe it. Because Jacob hasn't shown he has the best chin, and that usually means that fighter almost always goes into defense first when fighting GGG, which ends up making them a punching back.

I'd like to see how he handles Lemieux. If he can handle his power, I'll believe he has a credible shot at standing against GGG.

its unfortunate that jacobs won that fight,imo canelo and quilin could beat lil G but jacobs is to fragile,hes not beating lil G

Quillin could beat Lee, what chance does he have to beat GGG.

And Canelo isn't gonna beat GGG either.

I dont think he cant stan against GGG, Im just saying his skell level is not that far from GGG's.

Funny how you didn't dispute a damn thing, just went to name calling. That's because mental midgets go straight to the fallacy.

Jacobs said jack **** about GGG after the fight, didn't even ****ing name him as a great MW. And before the fight he was saying the price had to be right! As if dude commands a high purse.

If he is ready good, because if he thought Mora hit hard, GGG is gonna make him wish he let Quillin win.

And the only thing pathetic is that piece of shiiiit you have as you pic.

There is horse shiiiit worth more to the universe that that ****phobic, misogynist, horse face Fury.

You got that son! (Said in my best white trailer trash voice).

Really doe. Rousey! Really

I didn't read the rest of your **** post because it was that, ****. Everything you post is ****. You wake in the morning and you piss ****, son. Your just a ****ty person I guess you can say.

And yeah, go suck Ronda's ****. Don't act like I haven't seen you post about Rousey beating Floyd.

The situation is a little different though, as I don't think Jacobs is signed to Shotime, and is instead contracted to PBC, which makes time buys from networks, so free airtime from another network would be financially beneficial to them.

I thought HBO had a standing practice of not working with any fighters associated with Haymon?

I was completely shocked. I was hoping Danny would win, but I expected Quillin would beat him. In either event I expected we'd get 9 or 10 rounds of this thing even with a dramatic KO.

The stoppage felt awkward but I think it was the right call, Quillin was going to get his brains knocked out. The look on his face was real sketch, he should have taken a knee sooner to try to get out of the round.

Yes but all of those men knew where they were when they were in that situation. Neither of those men were knocked out on their feet, Quillen was already knocked out, just because he was standing doesn't mean he was good to go. The ref cannot stop the action to see if a fighter is ok, unless the fighter has received an injury like a head butt etc... What the ref did was appropriate, he stepped between the fighters when he thought Quillen was on his way down, he turned his back to the injured fighter as he maneuvered the active fighter to the furthest neutral corner, he then turned and looked out the ring for the counter, so he (the ref) can continue the count, when he saw there was no one counting out the ring, he realized Quillen had not been down, so the ref waved the fight on while taking an active posture in preparation to stop the fight, should he have too. At that point the ref looked at Jacobs, then turned and looked at Quillen, made eye contact, and realized Quillen was already knocked out on his feet, so the ref stopped the fight. As I said, the Boxing fan in me wanted the ref to allow the fight to go on, but my boxing knowledge told me Quillen was already gone and he was on punch away from being out cold. Could Quillen have miraculously recovered and survived the round? Of course. But that's a major risk, and it's better to caution on the side of error, when someone's life is on the line.

I'll point out, when a boxer gets knocked out cold, on the canvas, not moving, not responsive, the ref runs over starts the count, gets to 3 then realizes the boxers state and stops the fight, but 2 counts later the boxer jumps right up like nothing ever happened. Now some people would say the ref should have counted to 10, while others would say when you get hit, and as a result end up temporarily immobile, it would be better for you to stop fighting, recover, and receive medical attention, rather than sustain anymore damage after such a trauma.

Quillien wasn't "knockout cold on his feet" that impossible to achieve and far reaching. He had his hands up ready to box when the ref waved it off. Maybe the fight would have ended shortly after...who knows. As for Bradley, that dude was messed up, rolling all over the ring. Pavlik, too, was the same. I will respect your opinion and, at the same time, hold on to mine. I feel the stoppage was premature.

[SUBZER0ED]

I was shocked at how easily Jacobs rocked Quillen. It also amazed me to see Quillen go from looking like he was falling down face-first, to somehow remaining on his feet. Explosive fight! Harvey Dock looked very closely at Peter's eyes before calling the fight. I think it was a good stoppage, as Quillen was badly hurt and would never have recovered.

How the *** can you fear a weight limit that doesn't ****ing exist.

Who the *** is champ down at 155 that there is to fear. I've never heard of such a title.

canelo would ko your boy at 155. your boy cant sell any ppv. you probably waited a week and watched on hbo free a week later. your boy is getting old and cant even sell 100k ppv. he better take the boxing superstars 155 demand and get his ass whoopin. we know he would rather keep winning against the likes of felix sturm, fringe contendors or shot fighters.

[Boxing lives]

well #1 i'm not the only individual who thinks this
#2 even the showtime commentators said this: "in the mw division golovkin is generally regarded as the top middleweight, but now if you're danny jacobs you can legitimately lay claim and say this win is better than any win on golovkins entire resume"
is that not true? what is golovkins BEST WIN? and how did he beat that person?
NOBODY on golovkins resume can compare to peter quillin NOBODY and D Jacobs took him out in 1 ROUND.
#3 i never said that jacobs would take out gg in one round but i did say he'd beat gg 8-4 or 7-5 in a 12 ound decision bc golovkin does NOT fight like how yall say he does he is NOT mike tyson or george foreman when he's in there with a fighter who can punch just as hard as himself or more so he WORKS BEHIND A JAB AND USES MOVEMENT
well who is golovkin gonna fight?? he dont wanna fight Ward so thats off the table thats the reason ward moved up to 175
lara has been callin' out golovkin for over a year and they dont want to fight him and lara would be the best fighter on golovkins resume by far
demetrius andrade said he would fight him
and golovkins team said they'd fight from 154-168 so WHATS THE PROBLEM

GGG has already been exposed as only taking fights at 160. There is a line of fighters willing to face golovkin. The kid is picking and choosing. Make no mistake about that. He thinks he is in a position to dictate terms but his fans don't even buy his fights. He has already started to regress in his last 2 fights. Its what happens when you refuse to step up. I wouldn't be suprised if one of these fringe contenders beats him in a couple fights before he gets that payday.
