Can't wait to see Jacobs back in the ring. He's been pretty silent lately wonder who his opponent will be.

Hope it is but I doubt it. If I'm not mistaken they train out of the same gym. I've seen this guy grow since his remarkable comeback attending all his fights except for the one in DC. Needless to say I'm a big fan. I even saw him win his last golden gloves. Dude has thudding power that resonates through the whole arena. Fast combo puncher with a great killer instinct like must Brooklyn fighters. But like Brooklyn fighters his defense isn't great. But he's at the top of the elite at 160. Of course I would favor GGG over him but Jacobs is a great champion and even better person.

no. khurtsidze destroys him just like pirog did. learn your matchmaking! it will be a pillow fisted man.

Yes, better get a fight lined up quickly just in case GGG fight falls through with Canelo and I have fight him.

Jacobs needs to rematch Mora when he heals up... but Jacobs knows he likely loses that one. Khurtsidze would be a good fight too... he's like a relentless pitbull who never backs up or backs down. Jacobs never gets the top MW spot though. GGG, Canelo, even Lemieux and Stevens would stop him. The guy's just too easy to hit. Maybe one day he'll wake up and become a complete fighter. Not that many are that, but he's a couple fights away from being dismantled in a bad way.
