    Jacobs' belt is bogus. If he vacates, fine. There's nothing special about him as a fighter. I haven't seen one thing that he does so well. He looks uncoordinated and basic in most of his fights.

    The middleweight division sucks.

      You guys said this ****** **** over and over when Golovkin/Wade was mandated. Haymon's guy agreed to terms within a few days. 75/25 split, Haymon's not bidding more for this fight than he did Wilder/Povetkin. Danny's going to take his $1.5mill and that's that.

          Bumlovkin doesn't have Russian millionaires backing him like PEDvetkin did. If it comes down to HBO's empty coffers vs Uncle Al's deep pockets - which it will - then look for Team Triple Duck to vacate and make all kinds of useless excuses in the process...

              I'm not so sure tbh. GGG did a 4 fight extension just before he fought Geale and Brook will be like his 7th fight. So his deal has to be getting close to done. Hopefully it won't get in the way of the fight getting made.

                Where were Uncle Al's deep pockets when it was time get Golovkin stripped vs Wade? Wade took $500k, Uncle Al's pockets are so deep anymore.

                    If anyone has been "ducking" this fight its Jacobs but tell yourself whatever you have to.

                    Anyway, if this fight doesn't happen, I really hope Golovkin moves up.
