You follow your biggest win, which was a 1st rd ko, by going ghost. How does this not compute in his head?

You gotta ride the momentum man

why follow a huge KO with a BUM?

Familiarity. People in today's age forget quickly. Fight a bum, fight a contender next, fight a champion afterwards. Do something to keep you fighting and in people's memory bank

Nobody wants to fight anybody anymore, they have a good win and then follow it with cherry picking, same as Garcia. Why not fight GGG? Even if he knocks your head off, who cares? You fight the best to see how good you are and he isn't doing that so how good is he? He's been winning fights, time to fight tougher competition now

Crying about not selling Barclay at this point of his career along with what he is asking for in a GGG match up shows that he is out of touch.

Yeah but instead he wants to have another fight against Mora and then ask for millions against GGG. This is the reason boxing is getting ass plugged by UFC, most boxers are scared of other fighters or scared of taking a loss

Jacobs is still an unknown and just not popular in US boxing circles. Making money is the key in boxing today and Jacobs fighting a bum like Mora proves little and earns little. Jacobs is a B level boxer and a D level attraction outside of NYC.

Undefeated fighters taking a L is career suicide in boxing today.When a fighter get a couple of losses fans write them off.Fighters are being calculated in the risk they take

Yep. He couldn't even sell out Barclay's against Quillin, but i bet if he fought GGG it would sell out. Dude needs to wake up and quit using the same old tired excuses we all hear. He shouldn't have ducked GGG and he should have defended his title a couple of more times, since the Last Mora fight.

Jacobs already has one L. My point was that an L to one of the best fighters in the sport shouldn't be looked down upon imo. If you are going to lose, may as well lose to GGG right? At least there is a legit excuse

Like Ward and Kovalev. Both are undefeated top guys. A loss on either guys record shouldn't be looked down upon
