    Callum is coming off a HIGHLY impressive win over Reynoso. His performance surely scared Jack into deciding to move up to 175.

          Reynoso a guy who is ranked number 70 in the world 14 wins and nearly 10 losses is what scares Jack? LMAO you could have used an better fight than that... Anyone can look impressive against a sparring partner... Smh Jack fights anyone. You have to be from the UK talking that ******

            Y'all say this everytime he fights... If you're not God or a psychic you shouldn't make statements like this.

              Good luck to Jack if he makes that move. I'm not sure who's noteworthy at 175 that I'd favor him to beat. Guess Chavez Jr is a solid bet although honestly I don't hate Junior's chances. Fonfara is there too be hit a lil too much, which makes him entertaining as hell, but it makes me think he's beatable by Jack too. I definitely don't like him vs the top guys there like Stevenson, Beterbiev, Kovalev & many of the top contenders. Maybe that pizza delivery guy who Kov KO'd & who one of those other under 12 fight or less prospects just KO'd a couple months back I could see Jack beating. Regardless I think he's got a losing record ahead of him fighting the notables at 175 right now so he's probably best served focusing on getting his weight right at 168.

              And thats not to say I don't root for the guy. He's one of the most respectful, humble & I'm assuming based on his accomplishments hard working guys that fights for Floyd/TMT. Just seems like a all around decent fellow who's trying to make his life dreams happen via boxing & I can't root against that.

                Don't compare him to ggg.. Jack has the better resume has faced the better competition, should of won FOTY and almost close to cleaning out his division.. He won the title and and tool care of business at 168 and know he's moving up like a real champion does.. Ggg is near 40 and is going to stay at the same weight class forever instead of moving up and challenging himself. If you notice Jack doesn't call out welterweights like certain fighters in the bigger weight classes ..

                  Nice. 175 just got a lot more interesting. I expect to see DeGale up there soon too.

                    Who Jack has beaten to make you think he hasn't sht to prove at 168 anymore?


                    Zurdo is not at the level needed?

                    Jack was getting KTFO in 2014, he's 20 fights, but now he decisioned Groves and Bute (a man GGG koed in amateurs and Froch murdered) he can walk on the water and is P4P material and doesn't have to fight the Young Zurdo?

                    They house names but he's far from cleaning that division.

                    What about fighting De Gale yes, but also Zurdo, Sturm, the better Direll brother: Andre, Callum Smith, Chudinov, Murray.

                    Dude wants a bit of Stevenson, Ward and Kovalev right now.
                    Fine, but he should get more experience at 168, dude just defended his title 2 times and talk like he's at the end of the 168 road.

                    I think Badou Jack is going too fast, he's just 20 fights and right now is getting hammered by top 175 guys.

                      Callum Smith would absolutely flatten Badou Jack his glass jaw is trembling at the thought of it imo...
