Comments Thread For: Gennady Golovkin: Jacobs is My Biggest Fight, He's Amazing

[Motorcity Cobra]

Jacobs is an elite MW, but I don't think he'd make top 15 p4p.

Sometimes p4p represents what hapoened, not what's happening. I do think Jacobs beats Canelo though.

So the #2 MW is elite but not in the top 15 P4P and you think he's better than Canelo. But the MW division is a good division?

Jacobs P4P? mm, P4P are subjective and kinda meaningless.

Jacobs only has one good win and is not even a full world champion. So I wouldn't discuss him in P4P conversations even if we talk about top20. We just don't know.

But for sure he's the #2 MW

Just to be clear. The #2 MW isn't top 20 p4p. Didn't you say MW was a strong division?

he says that about every fight ffs, this fight should end very quickly, if Jacobs win (I highly doubt it) he will do it in round 1 or 2 in Quillin like stoppage, if Golovkin wins it will be in round 3 or 4 (what most likely will happen) he will put Jacobs to sleep

LOL you GGGaholics are so pathetic. And BTW, NO he has never said anything like that about his other opponents. So stop with the b.s. You SHOULD be impressed that GGG said that. And you should DEFINITELY be concerned. This will be no walk-in-the-park for EITHER fighter.

Yeah, I don't get the Kool aid that the GGG haters and the GGG fanboys drink. Jacobs is not a bum, does he have deficiencies? Yes, but almost every fighter does. Also, nobody is running from Lara except for fans who enjoy action. He has no appeal, and doesn't generate any buzz. He's a skillful boxer but he fought life and death with Angulo and had his hands full with Martorysian. C'mon now. Charlo is a good, up and coming fighter but he's not there yet in my opinion. I don't think Canelo is a afraid of GGG and I think that is a pick'em fight but they want to make as much revenue before they go up against that challenge, probably in late '17. Saunders is a joke. Look forward to seeing Lee and Lemieux fight some people in the year. Maybe get Lemieux to fight Quillen and Lee fight N'Dam. Anyway, looking forward to Jacobs and GGG.

What's his best win to date, at age 35? I'm not interested in who avoided him. You don't get wins that had never happened. And the whole middleweight division, including him, sucks big time.

Do you watch boxing? Yes or no? If yes, watch him fight, see the skill. Stop looking at boxrec to judge fighters.

[Rock&Roll]

He isn't lying. That says a lot about his level of competition (resume).
Jacobs is NOT an amazing fighter, far from it. Let the hypejob continue!

Sshhhhhhh....(your letting everyone know how little you know about boxing) shhhh

Would you like to know how i know he's not a hype job?
I used my eyes.

Sshhhhhh (real boxing heads already know this though) Sshhhhhhh

Hey, we just said basically the same thing at the same time. Ha!

They say great minds think alike, but in this case it was just regular people who have boxing knowledge.

Much of the blame for GGG opponents should be targeted towards his promoter.. If he had someone like Bob Arum. Things would probably be quite a bit different..

Just to be clear. The #2 MW isn't top 20 p4p. Didn't you say MW was a strong division?

First, I said we "just don't know", regarding Jacobs P4P status, because he only had one good win and is not even a full world champion. For sure I don't put him in top10, but I won't even discuss top20 or 30 because I don't know yet.
Second, I said P4P is subjective and meaningless.
Third, no, I didn't say MW was a strong division. Actually my point about it is that there are no weak divisions. Just more marketed and less marketed divisions. There's no statistic logic behind saying one division can be weak. All divisions are made of thousands of boxers around the world. Some have less some have more marketing, that's it.

Ok so now you're using resume as the determining factor for p4p. Quillin is as good as anybody on GGG's resume. What wins did GGG have to make him top 5 p4p? Or are u giving him a top 5 spot based on skills not resume?

he said Brook would be his toughest fight, he said Lemieux would be his toughest fight, he said Murray would be his toughest fight, other than Brook I don't think he's ever lost a round mostly cause he hasn't fought anyone on his level, I like Jacobs but I thought Quillin was going to knock him out, he doesn't have a chin and that worries me with him fighting a puncher, I think Eubank Jr. would win a few rounds against Golovkin and I really can't see Golovkin stopping him, I also think Canelo is the man to beat him
