Jacobs is a very different fighter to the mover that fought Pirog years ago...This should be interesting.
First question is how well Danny's chin holds up.

As long as we see Canelo or Saunders (for the Undisputed championship) afterwards
Jacob's extremely poor chin taints this match up a little
Had he systematically destroyed Quillin, I would probably think different. But the fact it was a a fairly quick KO1 makes me think it was a little 'flukey'. Quillin could quite have easily landed a punch like that, ending the fight in a similar fashion. But Quillin is Quillin.
That isn't going to apply with Golovkin has his chin is absolute cast iron. He ate Steven's hail mary left hook and continued moving. Thats frightening. I think the only way to beat Golovkin is to outbox him, which is no easy task given he cuts off the ring very well.

Jacobs got dropped by Mora because he hurt Sergio, Sergio was in clear retreat/survival mode, and he got caught coming in overly aggressive (with Mora throwing the shot off of his back foot).
If that's what you're hanging your hat on, be ready to be shocked.
