    read/reread the article. for some reason, that rematch is happening. dj himself says its a waste of time. how much say do certain fighters have over who they fight ? after dj dispatches snora again, he will wait to see what rd 3g dispatches brook. then of course alvy has to do the same to laim.

    after this dust settles, dj has to step back and see if 3g vs alvy gets signed.

    OR the WBA could put on their big boy pants and force a WBA showdown. dj made 1.5 mil vs quin. perhaps dj wants 2.5 ? an even 2 ? theres no contract details in that article. nowhere does it say dj doesnt want to fight 3g. dj isnt the a side. alvy is.

            Jacobs was the one who put a time limit on fighting ggg so he can keep waiting.

                With Floyd maywether literally everyone wanted Floyd for the payday. With GGG nobody wants GGG unless they get paid. Being paid well isn't guaranteed with GGG but getting a beating is

                  A.Garcia talks about fights in Salka's instead of currency, Jacob's talks about Quliin's instead of currency. Thanks Al.

                  If, say, 2 Quillins= £3m, which he turned down; and he's calling the fight a 'super fight'. He's going to be disappointed , as i don't think the demand for the fight is a big as he seems to think.

                      Jacobs is a nice guy and yes, we all want to make the big bucks, but what happened to the challenge of being the best. I really can't think of any other sport where, when the best offers you the opportunity to challenge to prove who is top dog, you don't jump at that irrespective of the cash. Of course no one fights for nothing, and of course you should get paid, in line with your woorth but FFS, hiding behind excessive purse demands to avoid fights. That's what this is. He obviously doesn't understand that: 1. He WILL get beaten; 2. Everyone gets beaten by GGG; 3. It is not the end of his career.
                      To be fair, the blame lays at the feet of the WBA. This etossers with their multiple belts have brought about this situation. Jacobs only thinks he is worth something because of the paper belt of his. So what happened to the WBA plan to get rid of this joke belt.
