He definitely needs to sit down to a big meal of it. Can't wait for the opening bell.

Mora is the truth, there is a reason GGG ducked him for that soft touch faded fighter from Africa. As for Jacobs, if I beat cancer I would be walking on cloud 9 too. He is just an upbeat guy, let him live.

I have absolutely no problem with the guy living. None. And he obviously has some serious talent. But where he goes in conversation isn't like any 'upbeat' I've ever heard. Sounds overly arrogant to me. Even gets mad when the Pirog fight comes up in conversation. Still won't accept the clear defeat, at least in the half dozen or so interviews I've seen with him on the subject. I wish him the best, but IMO he just seems too much a diva. GGG's the man at MW, not Jacobs. Someone must not have sent Jacobs the memo.

The dude had my sympathy after the whole cancer thing but it seems like the money and success have gotten to his head a little. G**** to him for surviving cancer but **** him.

Agreed on the swollen head. I wish the guy well. Just hope he tones it down a notch.

We're just stating opinions here anyway friend, no worries. Arrogance and ego are playing tag team here with Jacobs. And yes Mora has an ego, an attitude, but IMO he deserves it. He's been given the shaft a bunch of times thru the years in this sport.

And with beating the big C, Jacobs sure has gotten a load of good press from that. All those 'tugging at your heartstrings stories' where he doesn't mind playing cancer-victim turns cancer-beater. Again, just my 2 cents friend.
