    Even when you look at the Lemiuex, Adama, Stevens, Macklin and Rubio fights; GGG didn't do anything that wasn't already previously done. I mean, Ishida was coming off a 2 fight losing streak for God's sake.

    GGG hasn't faced anyone like Jacobs or seen speed + power combined like what Jacobs brings.
    Ahhh, so what you're saying is if GGG beats Jacobs, he'll do something that wasn't previously done.

        Can you believe some organizations actually have him ranked #2 P4P Props to the HBO hype machine for that.

        His career has been smoke and mirrors up to this point. Jacobs humbles him in 6.

          Glad he got the win last night. Time for him and GGG to settle MW.

              It's insane the amount of hype he gets for not challenging himself and being a diva.

              #2 P4P is insane considering who he's fought.

                Completely agree. Gstring is over rated, Jacobs will over come that guy like he did cancer. Jacobs is a class act. Reminds me a bit of Vernon Forrest (RIP)

                  Jacobs-Quillin would have sold a lot more than 97k if it was PPV too.

                      Good win over a name opponent, but a chinny one as most of us already knew. Thing about speed... it's nothing but flashy unless it's accurate. And I didn't see many of those punches landing. Last 'win' he went bonkers like he'd KOd Mora. Didn't happen. Mora landed wrong and tore a ligament or two, couldn't continue. Then Jacobs says no rematch, moving on. Was KOd by Pirog, a fighter similar to GGG in some ways. Had good wins vs Truax and Fletcher... but... who are they?

                      Point being, there are a lot more questions than answers with this guy. The same could be said of GGG... in fact many boxing fans bring up his thin resume too. So we need to have a GGG/Jacobs fight on the horizon soon. We need some answers about both fighters. And no, Jacobs fanboys... he won't be the A side. GGG will be the star of the show. Jacobs could change that, but until he beats The Man at MW, he's just another MW with one title.
