    If Jacobs fights Mora I'm done with him.

    This is what Jacobs said after he beat Mora.

    No rematch. There's no reason for me to go backwards
    So why would he go backwards now? He's a top 3 middleweight. He should be fighting Saunders or Golovkin. Since August 1st he's boxed a total of 3rds. On July 30th that'll be 3rds in almost a year. Is he just content with the junior varsity belt? If he doesn't want to be a world champion what is the point of his career? Why not retire? I don't want to hear about budgets/PBC vs. HBO. Why do we as boxing fans accept those reasons? We're already paying monthly subscriptions to premium cable channels and they don't even have monthly fights. Then we pay extra for PPV. We spend a lot of money on this sport and don't get what we deserve. Jacobs vs GGG is a PPV fight. HBO and SHO need to find a way to work it out. He's more known than Lemieux and would do better than 150k and the tickets would be more expensive. They can find a way to make this fight work. I have no interest in seeing him fight anyone other than GGG or Saunders. Any other fight is a step backwards.

      I wouldn't be surprised to see Jacobs vacate and move up to 168 w/o fighting Golovkin.

        Because Jacobs himself said fight Sergio again would be taking a step backwards. Jacobs is either the 2nd or 3rd best middleweight. He should fight Saunders or GGG. If he doesn't want to fight for a world title what's the point of him fighting?

          I chuckle at "I'm done with" threads. But its a bs fight without question. No one wanted to see it the first time & just cuz Jacobs got dropped & it ended weird no one wants to see it again.

            I've been a Jacobs fan and I just defended him in a thread the other day. The Mora fight makes no sense. Who has Mora beat to deserve another shot at the junior varsity belt?

              I keep getting ridiculed over saying this but:

              Boxing is slowly turning into the WWE. Boxers and their promoters will know the results before they step in the ring. If there is any chance of the top guy losing, they will ask for outlandish demands or wait until their threat is old and past prime.

              I expect Jacobs to move up soon. He doesn't want to fight GGG and he's not going to the UK. LOL...

                Nobody cares about this match, go fight another top contender, then come back to Mora

                  The words directly from his mouth were

                  No rematch. There's no reason for me to go backwards
                  Why does he expect us to support this? His career isn't at a standstill. Its going backwards

                    Public demand for GGG, GGG is the hot topic right now, that probably made him go backwards, everything is business moves in boxing now days
