Jacobs can crack with both hands, can fight inside/mid/outside, is the bigger/longer man, and is as fluid either southpaw or orthodox. You add that Golovkin really doesn't counterpunch and what are you standing on?

Originally posted by SeekDaGreat View PostI did not like what I saw from Jacobs. I'm convinced GGG will knock him out. Too stiff, too wide open, suspect punch resistance, no jab.
Prior to, I thought it was more so an even fight but it seems like Jacobs is now regressing.

Originally posted by Eastcoast View PostIf Jacob's believed he had any chance at beating Golovkin, he would've pressed for the mandatory already, beat the man, and started cashing in on his new status. Instead he just talks about delaying the fight and people like you cling to the idea of stripping Golovkin via a purse bid. Pathetic and bitter.
Once the mandatory is called, all of the faux negotiations stop (ie K2's $4m offer to Saunders turning to $1.5m when the details get out), and it comes down to which side is ready/willing to put the money on the table.
75/25 Golovkin split on whatever the bid ends up being, with the side that wins the bid keeping all of the upside on Golovkin-Jacobs (a big fight that's likely ready for PPV).
Not Jacobs' fault that Golovkin wants to get every fight on the cheap

That's really cheap of them to pay all those guys career high money..

Originally posted by Eastcoast View PostK2 would obviously be ready if they accepted the date. But it's obviously still tentative. That date would be paired with the Ward/Kovalev replay, HBO may want something weaker and let Golovkin have early December. I think Jacobs/Golovkin gets pushed to March '17 so that it can go on ppv though.
The only issue with the idea of delaying Golovkin-Jacobs to March is that the WBA has already delayed mandating the fight far enough, and there's very little that K2/Golovkin can do to justify another delay (especially with timing leaning toward the IBF mandatory title defense coming back around).
Outside of paying the money that Saunders is asking for.

Also, I sincerely doubt that K2 offer Daniel Jacobs significantly more than the $1.5m that he was disclosed to have gotten for the Quillin fight.
Will obviously give credit for the Wade offer, but that's about it. Nuance has a way of wrecking your arguments, I'm finding out
