      Maybe because the 2 best MW are vying for the title of best british welterweight.

          Man, stop always trying to post rubbish. End of the day, Jacobs said he would fight GGG months and months down the line. Money was not his final excuse. Just take it and move on, you dont need to suck certain fighters off all the damn time.

                Cry me a river. It's a shlt division. Golovkin himself said a welterweight will be his biggest win to date

                  Jermain Taylor became Champ at 160 again....it don't get much weaker than that.

                  If I told you 5 years ago that Taylor would win another title at 160 you would be while backing slowly away.

                    Canelo and Golovkin are the only A level fighters at 160. Trying to make Jacobs a A- just to fit your narrative is ridiculous.

                    Saying the middleweight division is weak doesn't mean ggg isnt good.

                    Minus some prospects (Devrevyanchenko, Khytrov) the middleweight division is devoid of pedigree fighters.

                    No p4p fighters in sight. Middleweight just sucks.

                      And the champ before him was washed up Sam Soliman. When a C level guy like David Lemieux is carrying around a title, then yea, your division is weak.
