Daniel Jacobs hints at the GGG fight happening in 2016

[HeroBando]

Team Golovkin offered Billie Joe Saunders 6 mil, I don't see why 3-5 mil is unreasonable for the much hard hitting more dangerous Jacobs?

Well Saunders brings a belt, but dude no way did they offer him 6m. Even half that is hard to believe. But whatever it is, its probably a 3 fight HBO deal

Jacobs also has a belt.

Jacobs also has a belt.

Kinda. WBA super vs regular is not a unification.

not one that anyone respects. everyone knows ggg is the champ. jacobs is just his interim champ. they will be mandated to fight shortly anyway. saunders will never be mandated to fight ggg.

Either way, we need to clear up who's the WBA champ. Although, GGG has the better body of work, I think Jacobs has the better single victory in Quillin even though I'm sure you'll disagree and say Lemiuex was better.

Yes people do respect Jacobs victory over Quillin.

Lastly, are we saying "belts" count or "level of opposition"?

If you say "belts", I'll say ok, although I'm sure your post history will state that you've valued level of opposition in the past as oppose to "belts", especially when talking about Mayweather. I say that because Jacobs is the better level of opposition than BJS.

Point being, GGG-Canelo is the next fight the fans want to see. If that fight can't happen next, the general consensus is GGG-Jacobs, NOT BJS.

Also, how many times have you said someone was ducking GGG?

Team Jacobs is on record saying they'll fight GGG for the right financial compensation (i.e. 3-5 mil).

Whereas BJS is on record telling GGG to "fcuk off, because he doesn't want to fight him and needs at least 18 months in preparation".

So you can stop complaining about people "ducking" GGG, don't you think it makes sense for GGG to pursue an opponent that actually wants to fight him for less money (i.e. Jacobs $3-5 mil) than someone who's publically stated they don't want to fight him (i.e. BJS) for more money (i.e. $6 mil)? An opponent that will be honored as a more worthy, justifiable opponent?

Or is it about the belts, doe?

You are spot on Brother. The haters will use whatever angle they can to discredit GGG. Including the ole "hasn't been tested with a real top ranked fighter yet" BS excuse. But the fact is he HAS taken great power punches to the chin from the opponents you have mentioned that would indeed drop most mortal men/boxers to the canvas,...and prevailed victorious with vengeance and KO's. Can you hear the Haters cry?!? I know his knockout ratio is a thorn in they a$$es too!!
This is in response to 'Mathed's' previous post BTW.

GGG KO's Jacob within four anyway.

Who are you referring too?

Can you elaborate what you're talking about specifically in this post cause I'm a bit confused?

If Sergio Mora dropped Jacob, GGG KO's him with a jab!
