Danny Jacobs: GGG is the best of my generation - Will fight him when money is right

[therealpugilist]

dude, proving something to somebody who refuses to recognize the reality that golovkin is a top 5 p4per on any decent list is not productive!


on what planet are you fit to rank a p4p list? nevermind a weight class that you clearly know nothing about.


but let me guess.. a win over quillin gets golovkin on your list, amiright?

i wonder why ?

p4p is opinion based....a combination of talent, eye test, who you think would beat the most fighters if they were the same size, and resume


IMO GGG isnt top ten.....deal with it.

I gave my list and reasons why but the same idiots who asked for it couldnt even supply a list of their own

was it you?

He has 1 win over top 5 middleweights..of the current top 5 middleweights they all just beat one a piece....facts bro...facts

[Derranged]

Laughable isn't it

N'Dam, Sturm, Martinez, Cotto, Canelo, Jacobs, BJS...it's all K2 man. K2 don't want it.
If the Eubank fight falls through that will be on K2 too. Best to ignore the only remaining talks are between Eubank and Sky.

Don't forget about this guy:

And this is another example of why boxing needs some sort of elite boxers central power structure type entity. Too much is about the business of boxing vs the sport of boxing. If basketball was ran like boxing teams wouldn't wanna play Golden State or Cleveland unless they made double what they usually make.

For some reason sports fans love the capitalistic nature of boxing that hurts the sport of boxing and that they wouldn't want anything to do with in other sports.

So what makes Jacobs any different than all the other GGG victims.?
Don't you want to see Danny ko'd like all the rest?

let them talk about things like P4P lists and unified "champion"

what good are these titles or belts if you havent beat anyone worth a damn for it, let alone didnt even fight for them?

I guess it fulfills a fantasy watching GGG wreak no hopers.

they got tired of a brash, black guy dominating the sport, making the biggest paydays, baptizing their favorite fighters and making them look ******. All the bitter ODLH, Mosley, Pacquiao(now GGG fans), Castillo, etc. fans...... they wont admit it. Its safe behind a computer screen

I dont care for any of the outside of the ring stuff and its sad people talk about money and race on this site more than fights

lets be real....its bigots in the street, online, and in this forum. They accuse others of things they do daily, in an attempt to deflect the obvious.....GGG is their great hope.....too bad to be great you have to proof it in the ring and not in board rooms.

nobody cares about your opinion! it's useless if you think there are 10 better boxers than gennady golovkin right now. post your p4p list. this will be good for a laugh.

"well i got qullin at 9. eye test doe."


he has 6 wins over top 10 middleweights. all by one sided knockout. but let me guess, unless they're top 5 they don't matter right? and going back to '08 nobody has gone the distance. that's over 20 fights.

but let me guess, he didn't beat ndam or quillin, so he's not on your list right?

did you or did you not say that golovkin would make your list if he beat quillin?

basketball teams can't die in the ring. you can die in boxing. kovalev killed a guy. eubanks damn near killed nick blackwell a few months ago.

just look at what happened to jermain taylor. knocked out by froch, signs up for a tournament and ends up getting matched with the best puncher in the tournament. gets knocked out and his life is literally never the same. JT is insane now. that's from head trauma. i get that people don't understand that, but that's why you can't compare team sports in a tournament format to pro boxing. guys need easy fights, tune ups, favorable matching when they are coming up, to develop and lengthen their careers.


you can't just mandate fighters to fight, one after the other, their top contenders. they'll burn out and nobody will make money. promotors won't invest in building fighters just to lose control and not be able to match them.



now, if you want to draft up some kind of system to make championship fighters fight, i'm open to the idea and seeing what the mechanisms look like. just know that promotors won't promote, and fighters won't fight, if they're not allowed to try and maximise the value of their assets [ or from the perpsective of a fighter, their lives.]

Jacobs statement is why boxing has been in a downslide and turns people off to the sport. Show some damn heart Jacobs.

If he stepped in the ring with GGG right now and took what they were offering, which im guessing is prolly around 1.5 million. If he took the fight and some how pulled off a upset, that would put Jacobs in a position to be on top of the boxing world and in a position to make crazy amounts of money from then on.

You have to take chances and risk to be a star and get the money in the game of boxing. Jacobs saying he'll only fight GGG if they give him huge money because he is too good makes him look like a no heart stiff who is looking only to cash out when he fights GGG. Lame

I hope Mora pulls out one last good fight and beats you now.

....so what makes your opinion more valid than mine? because you typed it? bwahahahahahaaaa.....I enjoy scjooling you daily


Your boy has a lacking resume, he isnt p4p, he didnt earn all his belts in the ring, and he will be fighting another can next, you'll defend it with the usual "they duckking doe" crap....rinse wash repeat

So cuz boxing is more dangerous than most other sports you're okay with the money over the sport angle to boxing?

Eh, but yea fair enough argument I'll admit. I wouldn't argue for it cuz as a bigger fan of more competition in boxing it's counterproductive to making the sport appealing to the masses (or bigger masses than its getting anyway) and my overall enjoyment.

And I personally believe one of the reasons MMA keeps becoming more mainstream is cuz they do exactly what I'm suggesting for boxing via the UFC. Although as you bring up boxing is dangerous, even more than MMA, so maybe that isn't even as relevant a comparison as most would think.
