It's cos racism yo

The man holding bruvvas down like always

How much is he being paid should be the only question a Journalist should ask him

Does everything have to be about race? He hasn't done enough to be a star, it's on him it's not on the fans. Been knocked out and hasn't beaten any top level fighters. You gotta earn it if you wanna be at the top level. Crying about your skin color won't get you there.

First of all he needs to be more active. He should do what triple g did and feast on bums.... Even though he hasn't faced anyone he is always active and in action in front of people.

Even though Danny beat quillin which was nearly 10 monthes ago people tend to lose interest if they don't see you for a while.

i think a lot of fighters and fans are over-estimating the popularity of boxing.

He was brutally knocked out by Dmitry Pirog in the prime of his career/best weight class. He'll have to avenge that loss and continue from there.

it was a one punch deal. heck, even snora scored a kd. dp had 15 kos in 20 fights.

jd is still in his prime and there wont be able to avenge that loss due to pirog being retired.

dj beat cancer and instantly got over that fluke ko. now he has to keep on beating those ahead of him.

Jacobs doesn't have to wait much longer.

When he beats Mora tomorrow, I'm sure that will catapult him into superstardom and he'll finally get the respect he deserves. Big money, big PPVs to come!

If it's the same fight I saw it was 1 punch that took him out but prior to that he was on the ropes looking very vulnerable.

Jacobs needs to be more active. That is part of what has created the hype for GGG - being active.
People think Golovkin is white - he isn't - he is mixed race and from Kazahkstan ffs. He paid his dues in Germany under Universum and was lucky to get out and sign with K2. But since then he has seized his career by the lapels and just fought almost whoever would fight him.
Basically if an unheard of, half Korean/half Russian kid from kazakhstan can make it to be a top 5 boxer from attraction point of view then there is no reason why Danni Jacobs can't be up there assuming he keeps winning. Just be active and not too picky.

This guy can't be for real...
