Danny Jacobs has 3 title defenses

that record includes a full rebuild after cancer / pirog. basically every top 10 MW blasts most of those names out of the water.
i like jacobs. i think he's a solid offensive fighter. he's very exciting, too. i'm also a fan of what he does outside of the ring. anybody who survives cancer to come back as a pro athlete is a winner in my book.
still, dude was dropped and hurt by the f#cking latin snake. hisss. pirog was a good fighter but jacobs had nothing for him. not sure how much stock to put into the death of his grandma. she raised him. he got blasted by the best fighter he has fought.
i've seen some pirog tape recently. that guy could fight. i really think he would have been a major player, possibly even a threat to golovkin. he had power, great balance, and very sneaky timing.Comment

Lol Larry, seriously. You've been ****ting out awful threads like a indian takeaway hangover. You need to get threatening GGG on twitter instead, far more effective imo.Comment

Jacobs is very good. I rate him right below GGG and Canelo as the 3rd best middleweight in the world. If he defends his title 3 times a year he could rack up 15 or more successful title defenses. With his speed, skill and power he might beat Canelo and GGG but I favor them to beat him. Both Canelo and GGG throw accurate bombs with both hands and both of them take a punch very well. Mora dropped Jacobs. Canelo and GGG are much better fighters and harder punchers than Mora.Comment

Floyd fans don't respect Golovkin because he's an overhyped media machine that has no relevant wins at 34 years of age...Comment

Danny Jacobs is not only a talented boxer but a charismatic individual with a great personality and a touching backstory as a cancer survivor turned boxing champion. He's also an exciting puncher.
Why do you think Boxing Scene shows him disrespect on a daily basis? Is it because he's American? Is it because he's black?
Jacobs seems a nice guy. The truth is he was a prospect gone wrong, revitalized by the cancer story used as promotion. He was baby stepped back for so long that he flew under the radar escaping any criticism. I dont even think Quillin took him seriously. Suddenly he stops Quillin in 1 round, people start talking about him and he is some persecuted figure in boxing now?
Lets see him in with some other top fighters.Comment
