    Agreed, Andy Lee is garbage

      I feel he'd take a fighter like GGG or even a Jacobs far more seriously but that is speculation on my part.

      Personally I think Saunders would outbox and probably stop the chinny Jacobs.
      Its not just his chins bad his defense is terrible, he loads up way too much its a recipe for disaster.
      Yeah, Saunders probably beats Jacobs imo but Jacobs has a puncher's chance v GGG whereas Saunders doesn't have that.

        In my book, Jacobs even though he has bad chin, is still the second best Middleweight and the better opponent for GGG. Jacobs is always in good, exciting fights and has very good power, knocked out everyone in the last couple years.

        Saunders is usually in terrible fights. You have to rewatch Saunders vs Lee, it ranks as probably one of the worst fights in the last 10 years.

        I hope both fights will happen until Mid 2017.

          Loeffler says they're going to make the Jacobs fight 1st.
          This is what I wanted to hear, I'd rather see Jacobs-GGG rather than Saunders-GGG. Screw the belt, I want quality.
          What if Jacobs *****es out?

            I also have to say i was never impressed by Andy Lee as a fighter, if he wasnt with Manny Steward, nobody would have praised him back then.

            He already got knocked out by Brian Vera and Chavez Jr which are no Top P4P fighters and the fight against Saunders was just atrocious. I still like Andy Lee, he is just a very passionate and likeable guy and you just want to root for him.

              Lee knew he lost to Horta, just compare the end of fight celebrations

                  Yeah and within the last 2 years, Andy Lee also has a MD over some guy named Frank Haroche Horta, who was 34-12-5. How do you explain that?

                  You still fail to show who has the better resume?

                  Now all of a sudden we count draws and losses?

                  In the last 10 years of fighting, Andy Lee has one descent win which is against Matt Korobov who is solely known for his amateur pedigree.

                  Going off what you say, Jerrod Fletcher is just as good of a win for Jacobs as Korobov is for Lee.

                  Mora has a better resume and Jacobs beating Andy Lee at this point in Jacobs career does jack schit for Jacobs. Nothing more than a victory over Mora would do
                  Don't be a dumb ass. Mora lost back to back fights to Vera, right after Lee cruised by Vera. Outside that 'Contender' series from 15 years ago, Mora has no decent wins at MW outside of a faded Proksa.

                  You want to make fun of Lee/Horta, but then after Lee had close fights with Quillin & Saunders, in your short book that makes Quillin & Saunders about equal to Horta? GTFO.

                    Lee was knocked down 4 times combined against Quillin and Saunders with not one win against either one.

                    Somehow that equates to an addition on Lee's resume in your book.

                    Lee got his ass kicked by some guy named Horta.

                    The fact that Lee got KO'd by Brian Vera speaks measures.

                    But please explain how Lee has a better resume than Sergio Mora?

                    Please don't bring up losses and draws for Lee. We're talking about wins here.

                    What wins does Lee have that trumps Mora's? Not what losses and draws he has.

                      I have to get back on my meds because I posted a video of your God getting his ass handed to him by some guy that was 34-12?
