Comments Thread For: Lederman Wonders Why Jacobs Isn't Fighting Gennady Golovkin

The kid "paid his dues". Jacobs knows how it is -- Pirog showed him already.

This would be a great fight. Unfortunately there on opposite sides of the street. Al Haymon will not let any of his clients go fight on HBO and GGG is tied to HBO.

Both men would get tested in different ways. It would be a good styles fight and hopefully one day they fight each other.

WHAT? Are you serious? Hbo the one who banned Haymon and the quality of fights haven't exactly improved.

They didn't ban Haymon. HBO bought the rights for Quillin/Korobov and was going to show Ortiz/Stieverne. In both those fights Haymon pulled his fighters out.

Fact: Haymon is badly persecuted by HBO.

[Eastcoast]

Haymon's not doing what's in the best interest of his fighters like Stevenson & Quillin when he's turning down massive paydays for them because they're on HBO.

Make no mistake: This mess is on @AdonisSuperman and his boss, Al Haymon. They looked for ways out, and they got what they wanted.

The idea that HBO and Showtime would get together for a joint pay per view is laughable. The money both nets would make would be peanuts.

They got banned because they wanted too much money for fights , have you seen some of those PBC purses they make no sense.. the fight only have 3,000 people in the arena , the boxer getting pay $1 million dollar

No way does Danny fight GGG unless its for a ridiculous amount of cash...

The new president said that he is open to working with Al Haymon but as long as the match ups were good. Not the mismatches that we saw last year with the PBC elite from time to time.

And yes the overall match ups last year were good on HBO not saying everyone was great but they had a lot of quality last year. That's anot reason why they had good ratings last year.

Ledermen should be happy. He basically gets the night of April 23 off when GGG crushes Dominic Wade in the most disgusting mismatch in boxing history.

So GGG - Wade is worser than Garcia - Salka? Looks like GGG is a much better fighter than Garcia, hahaha
