Danny Jacobs..12 straight k0's and 4 title defenses

2 years ago he said he wasn't ready. Not the same as saying he doesn't want it. Jacobs has always been an honest guy so I don't see no reason to take him at his word. I'm going to laugh my ass off if Canelo gets Jacobs because GGG's team try's to play hardball.Kind of hard to believe Jacobs calling Golovkin out when he has already said he doesn't want it, and the reason Golovkin is fighting Brook is specifically because two fighters who called him out and both b*tched out when the time came to make the fight.
Until Jacobs proves otherwise, I'll assume his talk just as empty as everyone else who says they want to fight Golovkin but are nowhere to be found when it's time to do so.Comment

Jacobs just said very recently (a month or two ago) that he doesn't want to fight Golovkin for a year or 18 months. Hard to believe he's serious about fighting him now. I hope he is, but I won't believe it until it happens. Lots of guys say they want to fight Golovkin when they don't want to, Jacobs included. Let's hope he's serious this time.Comment

That's guarantee money, of course he was gonna get PPV upside just like Lemieux who brought a belt to unify.
In any case sounds like he passed on 2-3m which is way more than this mando is worth
I made a career-high, on record, of $1.5 million for the Quillin fight. And to have it kind of close to that, I was like, ‘Wait a second. I could fight two Peter Quillins and make the same thing.’Comment

I'm literally not a fan of any of those fighters bar Spence.....You don't need to like the fan favourite black fighters to not be considered racist imo.
I'll always root against Mayweather and Ward because what they stand for is bad for the sport of boxing they bring nothing to the table and they quite honestly don't deserve a big fan base.
Boxing is the hurt business fans fill stadiums to be entertained not to be bored this is why guys like Golovkin, Spence, Inoue, Khan and guys like Froch they bring it when it matters most and that is why they deserve big fan bases.
It's just a simple little case of what is most popular boring fight style or an entertaining fight style and you know which one the majority will pick.
Mayweather is one of my favorites ever....What does he represent exactly? Winning a legit world title at 21 and being p4p for like 20 years? Don't even play that entertainment stuff because it is embarrassing..... Floyd was sensation early in his career before his hands started giving him trouble.
Floyd also has one more knockout to watch than Ray Leonard so he's not doing too bad in that regard.
Ward, I like as a guy but not much as a fighter. But what does he represent exactly? Winning a Gold Medal and then fighting all comers before being sidelined by promotional issues to then come back and fight one of the most feared fighters in the sport? Oh yeah what an assh0le right?
Seems like you hate them because they excel and undermine your idea of what boxing should be and Mayweather does it as THE cash cow in the sport.
No, boxing is the sweet science, so that was your first mistake. If you want the hurt business go find some bareknuckle boxing...
Do I like wars? Yeah of course...But what's better Ward/Gatti or Corrales/Castillo or even further Manny/Marquez? The higher skills just make for better fights.
My favorite fighters off the top of my head are Floyd, Frampton, Cotto, Leonard, Broner, Lara, Fortuna, Pep, Rigo, Toney, Duran... Do I get frustrated when Rigo or Lara won't engage? yes....When Cotto boxed Margs instead of attacking....yes....When Broner boxes lazy and doesn't try like against Porter.....Yes but not because it's boring...I don;t find boxing boring but I get disappointed when they don't perform to their full potential.
Haven't the majority being picking to watch Mayweather? So by your logic how can he be boring?
You are a fool. Do you get that? What you say is embarrassing and if you said it aloud in front of actual boxing fans they would laugh at you.Comment

When it comes time to make the fight I assume Haymon will be the one making the offer.Comment

lara one of your favourite fighters?! You enjoyed his performance against canelo then, when he ran away the whole fight. If you like his style it explains why you detest GGG lolI'm literally not a fan of any of those fighters bar Spence.....
