Comments Thread For: Loeffler Relieved to Finalize Gennady Golovkin vs. Daniel Jacobs

Why are ya'll obsessed with him fighting four times a year? You'd rather see him fight four bums a year than two quality fights a year. No more bums for this guy.

Golovkin wants four fights a year, but it never happens. Maybe GGG should join Arum or something. This Loeffler guy just couldn't do it.

Never, that's not true. But it hasn't recently, but has nothing to do with Loeffler. They could easily make four fights, excuse them for trying the top guys at 160.

Eastern Bloc fighters all over are surpassing Golovkin acomplishments in terms of fan base and career status.

There are no bums in the top of any division. ****ing ridiculous, unless you are a top fighter in the world, you have no business saying anyone is a bum. A lot of posters on boxing scene calling guys bums who are one of the ten best MW on a planet with 7 billion people. As if they're out there putting themselves as one of the ten best anything.

Like Jones stated, he's not fighting bums, he just makes them look like it.

I just wanted to say great work to Tom Loeffler, Al Haymon, Showtime, HBO and PBC for coming together and dispelling all the myth's for those dissenter's that said this deal could never be reached.

BRAVO gentlemen. Bravo.

I don't mind giving you my hard earned money when you make fights like this. My hat's off to you

GOOD post !!

K2 has been working with Ryan Martin too. I can see him opening up the broadcast...but they should give him a tough opponent.

That'd make for a solid card (depending on who K2 can get him in there with; Rashad Ganaway, rated about where Ryan Martin is on BoxRec, would work), but K2 still needs to fill out the card (for the fans in the building live especially) and I don't see them having all that many prospects to work with.

Monahagn will most likely be on TR's Friday show. Andy Lee/Jorge Heiland had already been planned to be on the undercard if Golovkin/Jacobs had fought in December. Now that both guys are likely headed into the WBC tournament, that could still be the case.

Heather Hardy is with DiBella, and I'm sure he'd love to have her on the card. Katie Taylor is also being rumored to join the undercard. There's no reason GB wouldn't want Quigley on the card as it'd expose him to a massive Irish audience. With Conor McGregor carrying out the flag for Conlan the night before, he's likely to be there, making for an electric Irish atmosphere.

we'll have to see how it all comes together, tbh

you clown most of all time greats fought more than twice a year and I'm pretty sure nobody complained.part of the reason boxing is in the ****ter is because these guys are fighting once or twice a year they lose all momentum and people forget about them.I bet golovkin will fight 4 times next year and you will stay mad.

Yeah. Remember, Walters fought Nonito on one of GGG's undercards before. I don't think Tom is too proud to put on a good fight with fighters from different promoters.

[NEETzsche]

I doubt they'll be able to stack the undercard considering how much GGG and Jacobs are getting paid

[New England]

Time to load up the undercard. Get Gonzalez/Caudras II, hearing Usyk vs Cunningham or Durodola, maybe round 1 of the WBC MW tourn, and being St. Patty's weekend - Andy Lee, Sean Monahagn, Jason Quigely, and Heather Hardy might be good idea.
