    They get it wrong sometimes, that's life but they get it right most of the time.

    The odds here are about right. They are giving Jacobs a very slim chance.
    Despite the 8 to 1 headline, I don't see the lines on any of the major sportsbooks online. Nothing on ProBoxingOdds and GGG is only a moderate -385 favorite on one obscure BTC sportsbook.

      I've always liked pirog over GGG. He had more dimensions, more defensive responsibility and was more fluid. The way he shifted prior to the KO of Jacobs was beautiful.

        You're a fool if you think Gigi can take Jacobs' shots.
        GGG ain't Quillan. He'll eat what Jacobs attempts to feed him and then spit it back in his face. Danny will make it interesting for 4 stanzas but will be forced into submission. Golovkin is flawed but there is a genuine beast in him. The Beast will prevail.
