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

[Boxing lives]

Golovkin isn't the least bit concerned with Charlo. Canelo would be favored over Charlo, and Golovkin wants him.

Golovkin and K2 legitimately aimed for Ward in 2014 and even when Ward came back a year later to offer to fight, they didn't say no, but said they would be cool with sometime in 2017. They even say to this day they'd fight Ward once done with 160.

Charlo is a huge 154er, but he wouldn't have that advantage against Golovkin.

It's why Charlo called Canelo out after his J-rock fight, but said nothing about Golovkin.



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.

Canelo matches up better with Charlo but chose to pick on Beefy Smith for his 154 strap. Charlo would stop Golovkin though. Neither one is trying to fight this guy. Charlo KO's everybody and has built up a good resume. He should be a top ten p4p guy now.

until the fight is signed... then you'll say charlo sucks and bob jackson (or whoever is climbing the ranks by then) is on the hunt for golovkin

do you think we were all born yesterday

Charlo is an undefeated champion with a resume. Quit speakin jibberish and put some respek on his name boy!

Charlo just knocked out someone who had no one of note on his record. Previous he struggled with Trout. And this fight doesn't effect anything about making a fight with Charlo at all. Wtf you on about? Just get your Pirog talk ready for when he knocks Danny out. And then get the "he's only a 154lbder" talk ready for Charlo.

I have no doubt in my mind Charlo would stop GGG. He is just a better fighter. J-Rock was a can't miss prospect. It would be the equivalent of Brook knocking Spence out. Only the best fighters can win in such emphatic fashion. Watch out. Jacobs could put your hero to sleep in those first 3 rounds if he doesn't hide behind the jab!

You are such a hater lol. If Charlo wanted GGG in march why didn't Charlo call him out? I heard "where you at Cinnamon" but as usual no one dares speak GGG's name.

He would have called Golovkin out if the twat fans weren't being such muffs. The bottom line is he called Golovkin out before the fight. He didn't call Canelo out his brother did but he went with it. He will be the best fighter at 160 as soon as he moves up.

[aboutfkntime]

who says anyone is REQUIRED to move up? It's such a recent phenomenon that great fighters MUST fight in multiple weight classes. Hagler was pound 4 pound #1 for years by staying at 160 and defending his title. If a fighter is comfortable fighting at a weight, his staying at that weight should not be viewed as a negative

nah, it's not recent..... but it was greatly over-rated/over-hyped when Pacquiao arrived on the scene

the ONLY qualifying criteria for greatness is..... who you beat, with consideration given to when/how..... there is NO other qualifying criteria

so you do NOT need to move up in weight in order to be classified as great..... not IF you have truly great fights in your ONLY division

but the fighters who climb in weight have more opportunities to face genuine greats, therefore more opportunity to build a meaningful legacy

fk, not sure about that.....

Golovkin is over-rated, protected, and he desperately needs to get in there with some quality opponents.....

that doesn't mean those quality opponents will beat him

he is an outstanding fighter, and Charlo is not elite, yet

good fight

Lol at the Lil Gina fans hyping up Jacobs, making him up to be some kind of killer.

Yeah GGG definitely needs to start mixing it up with these guys. Jacobs is a solid start. Danny has a big punchers chance in that fight. Charlo is the guy that beats him IMO though. He has the length, speed, power and skills. He is more complete IMO. Maybe he needs a fight at MW to show what he can do but I think he will move up and start to take over this division if people don't hide. Charlo's lack of a resume is what keeps him from elite status. He's willing to mix it up with the best. Trout & Jrock on the resume. Charlo signed to an Andrade fight that Andrade pulled out of. He KO'd the durable K9 Bundrage. Its not just the wins but the fashion in which he wins. Trout is the only guy he hasn't steamrolled. Styles make fights. Charlo is a match up nightmare for Golovkin.

[PunchyPotorff]

what worries me about Jacobs is that Mora dropped him, Eubank is physically stronger than Golovkin and might actually overwhelm Golovkin, but Canelo is the best counter puncher in the sport and loves come foward fighters and that's why I think Canelo easily wins

Yep, Jacobs does have a questionable chin, no doubt. I just think he at least makes some serious noise no matter how it ends up. But yeah, Jacobs, Eubank or Canelo will be bad news for GGG. No way he gets past all 3.

[BillyBoxing]

So everyone else is required to move up for challenges except GGG??? Last I looked these guys weren't saying ANYONE from 154-168 but ONLY at 160

I'm pretty much convinced they will go for 168 once they clean 160 unless somebody at 160 puts GGG to sleep and ends his career.

Are Jack, Sturm, Ramirez, and De Gale more dangerous than Charlo, Ginger, Jacobs, Saunders, Andrade?

Not sure about that

Honnestly, I'm more interested in seeing GGG vs Charlo than GGG vs Badou Jack.

Despite 2 divisions seperating Charlo and Jack.

Charlo is smaller, but is 6 ft like Jack, probably has more pop and skills for sure.
