Comments Thread For: Canelo-Golovkin: WBA Will Wait Out Talks Before Ordering Jacobs

[-MAKAVELLI-]

I was always skeptical of the possibility of a GGG-Jacobs fight for that reason. However, Wade is a Haymon fighter and we see they made that happen. Tom Loeffler said that Haymon was very easy to work and negotiate with, saying they were able ro make the Wade fight in less than a week. This looks good for a future Golovkin-Jacobs matchup.

i hear ya but that's Wade...im sure Haymon values his beltholders a lil more..but i hope they make it happen if Canelo decides to continue his reign of terror in the JWW division

not only that but he fights on showtime

This puts pressure on WBC and HBO.

Ggg in his last interview was talking about fighting on other networks. Ggg is in a good spot. If Canelo vacates and he still doesnt want Canelo at 55 for no title then fighting Jacobs is a great consolation prize. If I wasn't so worried about Jacobs' chin I'd feel comfortable calling him more than just a live dog but as it stands..dude is fast and has REAL power and skills. That fight would be awesome for however it lasts. GGG can have a monster chin but I think Jacobs would be the sharpest, best punching and most skilled fighter he'd have fought to date. Im a massive Jacobs fan and I think behind GGG-Canelo he's a close third. Maybe even better you never know.

I just hope one of the two fight GGG. Would be hilarious if Canelo offered ANOTHER step aside for May '17, Jacobs signed instead to fight Lee July 30th/August and Billy Joe signed to rematch Eubank sometime mid-late summer. All of them essentially ducking at the same time.

They need to pass through GGG in order for them to be Super stars. They will be nobodies the same way they are now. Canelo has fans because he fought mayweather and miguel cotto not because he fought Hatton or the other Cotto. You fight nobodies you become one. Ask Danny Garcia.

Great news, i'll take either fight happily.

Yes but what happens to your career when you fight a somebody and get knocked the fk out? It's a risk all three fighters consider i'm sure.

Im pretty sure Wade was advised by Haymon, but not signed wi him and showtime. Jacobs is a Haymon signed filter I believe and is on showtime.

Which is by Jacobs not take the risk in my opinion.

Jacobs would have some of the best all around talent GGG has faced, at least puncher wise. But Jacobs has been known to have a suspect chin. Pirog is one thing. But mora put him down. So I think GGG beats him pretty soundly.

Mora was a flash KD and he was pissed when it happened because he got careless. I favor GGG in the fight but is the no 2 guy in the division, I think Jacobs is capable of pulling the upset
