Daniel Jacobs calls out Golovkin

If lil G can't get fights then he needs to sacrifice something to get the big fights. We all know lil G is ducking too. He could have fought ward at 168 and beat him which probably would have enticed froch to come out of retirement for a big money fight.
He could have gone down to 155 and fought Canelo which I think he still would have whooped Canelo at that weight. But they weren't even entertaining dropping any weight. If Lil g beats Canelo he instantly becomes the cash cow. But they don't want to take any risks, only what benefits team GGG. They'll go down to 154 for Floyd but not 155 for Canelo. They'll go up to 168 for Chavez but not ward. They won't fight Lara at 160 because I don't even know why. So don't give me this shlt about lil G not being able to get big fights. It's all about risk reward for him too just like Jacobs and every other fighter.Comment

Yeah, I like the Jacobs - GGG fight but can you give me some examples of where an incumbent champion has had to make sacrifices in weight or money to get a less popular guy in the ring. Champions might make sacrifices to get big names in the ring, challengers might make sacrifices to get a title shot, but what you're talking about here is K2 actually offering Jacobs more than they pay GGG. I'd like to see the fight but I can't see any reason why they'd want to do that. Beating Jacobs (if he did, ofc) is hardly gonna propel GGG into superstardom now, is it?Comment
