Comments Thread For: Daniel Jacobs To Rep 'Brooklyn Boxing' in Gennady Golovkin Fight

[Scipio2009]

If ggg beats jacobs that surpasses anyone who canelo has beaten. At thats the way I see it. Then they must fight in sept.

Alvarez isn't afraid to fight anyone, but he's been schooled well enough (by Floyd, Cotto, Schaefer, and Oscar) to be about his business.

Golovkin has an offer on the table to take the fight for $15m and, unless Golovkin-Jacobs ends up doing massive business (if the fight breaks 500k PPV buys, K2 is likely to be dancing the night away), that offer is unlikely to change any.

Alvarez is likely to finalize the Chavez Jr fight in the near future and, if he makes it through that fight with no issues, he and his camp will likely weigh out Golovkin, a Cotto rematch, and a Chavez Jr rematch for the September PPV.

Golovkin might go to sleep in 3 rounds. The winner must fight Charlo to see who the best MW is. Canelo is behind with a less impressive Beefy Smith win than the electrify JRock KO. Also, Charlo is an undefeated champion who knocks out everyone not named Trout.

... or the winner can simply get Billy Joe Saunders in the ring, relieve him of that final belt (talent or not, BJS looked like **** in his last fight), and sit "king of the mountain" waiting on the next challengers to emerge.

Now that finally someone has stepped up to fight ggg, who is a really good opponent, all the ggg haters are quiet... Lmao they got nothing to say.. Lmfaoo

Golovkin has a legit opponent, and the fight is already signed for March.

what's there to talk about?

[Johnny thunders]

When has Golovkin ever been put in with a fighter that the general consensus was "this guy can punch". People can rightly argue David Lemieux (who can't really box if we're honest) and then ... who?

The fact that Kell Brook was able to put hands on Golovkin and draw a reaction gives me the sense that Golovkin isn't going to just be able to walk through the shots coming in by Jacobs without getting slept.

Whether I'd call it "momentum" or not, Golovkin doesn't hit hard enough to put anyone out with a single shot. Rather than eliminator power, like Randall Bailey, Deontay Wilder, Adonis Stevenson, Anthony Joshua, etc, Golovkin's power is like a baseball bat. The first shot's not going to do it, it's usually that 8th, 9th, 10th shot that puts things in real trouble.

If it comes down to a straight boxing match, I don't see Golovkin being able to outbox Jacobs, tbh.

The fact that u think Brook was even a threat or drew a reaction from ggg tells me everything I need to know. Yeah it drew a reaction, not from ggg tho, from his hometown fans lmao ggg at the end of every fight actually shows respect to any of his opponent and says that he is a warrior and whatever. But against kell Brook, he said that Brook was no middleweight and did not have power. thenfact that u are comparing ggg power to the power of heavyweights tells me u hold him in high regards. And 1 thing u are forgetting to mention, is that Jacobs has been down before against a fighter who couldn't polish ggg shoes. Ggg has never been down ever in his whole career amateurs and pro and he's been in there wit ppl who hit way harder than Sergio mora. Jacobs can hit but will he be able to get hit? Don't think so. Ggg is not Kovalev he actually finishes the show

rep whatever you want. The African Assassin is gonna ram Brooklyn right up your ass.

Dude, no one here appreciates you making this a race thing! Cut the SHT out!

Lmao he isn't afraid to fight anybody BUT he doesn't want to fight ggg lmao why wit everyone it's easy to make a contract but wit ggg it's so hard?? Who gives a fighter a contract when the fight is a year away?? It's not like Kovalev and Ward where they signed a year away but they were fighting tune ups on the way. This tells u everything u need to know and anybody wit a brain in boxing knows this is a tactical move by Oscar so ggg team won't accept that ****** offer and then will say "well ggg is ducking now" lmao nobody believes that s h I t. U vacated the first time to avoid ggg. That's it. That destroyed him. Nobody cares about the buisness side nobody cares about this that and the third. We all saw ggg call u out and u take him in the ring and say u will fight but then vacated. There's no legacy without ggg for Canelo. None. Yeah he will have money that's the best thing of all, but he will not have legacy and ggg will go on and make money and still have a legacy.

Was it a race thing when Roger Mayweather was known as "The Mexican Assassin" ?? No, it was just accepted until JC Chavez split Roger's nuts off the back of his neck. People can take their self serving double standards and *** off.

Golovkin has an offer on the table, with K2 not mentioning a single word to doubt it, for $15m to fight Saul Alvarez.

If Alvarez was truly "so afraid", putting $15m on the table for a fight is a ****ty way to show it.

Yes it is was a race thing with Roger and you are doing the same damn thing! Two wrongs don't make aright. Simple! What you are unquestionably doing is race baiting! Double standards are for biased people and all you do is make yourself look racially biased and inflammatory!

Lmfao cotto?? Ducked ggg and will never fight ggg but he will of course fight Canelo cause he way less of a threat. Lara?? Just talks about ggg but wit Canelo he actually didn't respect at all but he won't ever disrespect ggg. Trout?? Destroyed cotto who was his best win. A guy ggg wouldve destroyed between 3-5 rds. Mosley??? Don't make me laugh. Too old and he said ggg hits harder as ggg sparred him. Lopez??? BUM! Khan???? SUPER BUM! **** outta here wit that. And these are guys Canelo should not be fighting because he is way bigger than them he doesn't belong at 154 that's why all of sudden he's going up 2 165 to fight Chavez like it ain't big deal because it never was for him he was just scared of ggg and still is lmfaooo

why are you comparing them with GGG, I'm saying there all better wins then Jacobs
