Loeffler: Jacobs Bigger and Matches Better w/Golovkin Than Alvarez

[Chollo Vista]

Bump.

If no Canelo, we want Daniel Jacobs next. Not Ramirez.

Jacobs is in his own division and is The Ring's #1 MW.

Tom Loeffler, who promotes Triple-G, said he’s open to a fight against Jacobs. “That becomes very big if both fighters keep winning,” he said. I think Jacobs matches up better with Golovkin than Alvarez does because he’s naturally bigger and has a better amateur foundation, although the Mexican might have a better chin. … I don’t think the knockout loss will be as damaging to Quillin’s career as one might assume. Sometimes even the best fighters get caught with a big shot, as Jacobs did in his knockout lose to Dmitry Pirog in 2010. It happens. And the controversial nature of the stoppage mitigates the loss to some degree. I think Quillin (32-1-1, 23 KOs) remains one of the best 160-pounders in the world. He’ll bounce back quickly. … As always, it made me sick to hear the broadcasters refer to Jacobs-Quillin as a title fight. It wasn’t. Jacobs holds the bogus WBA “regular” title, which was invented so the sanctioning body could collect additional fees. Everyone knows that Golovkin is the actual WBA champ. The “regular” belt means about as much as the belt I bought on sale at Macy’s last week. In other words, it means nothing. Blow-by-blow man Mauro Ranallo ultimately did label the proliferation of belts “ridiculous.” Kudos to him.

Makes sense why they're in such a hurry to get to purse bid

God, I hope the WBA increases the split to 70-30 so we'll have a fight

I'm sorry but Canelo is a better fighter than Jacobs, there is zero doubt in my mind.

That is not to say Jacobs isn't a good fighter, and it isn't a good appetiser before Canelo-GGG. But make no mistake he isn't the major threat - this is just hype. He has punchers chance in the first 2-3 rounds, thats it. It is a step up in competition for GGG though and he needs that for his own credibility.

Loeffler knows what's coming

Isn't Jacobs a Haymon fighter? I thought those were totally off limits for GGG.

Or is that excuse only used when Erislandy Lara's name is brought up?

You already know...

Just LOL at these fools ^^^
