[Boxing Logic]

Saw a rumor that Berto vs Algerie would be the co-feature to this on Reddit

The rare competitive but awful matchup.

GGG Vs Jacobs get way more Articles than Garcia vs Thurman. I would assume the Thurman vs Garcia would be bigger fight than GGG vs Jacobs.

Garcia and Thurman are more evenly matched that GGG and Jacobs. Golovkin is probably going to hurt Jacobs early and often, whereas the Garcia, Thurman fight is a 50/50 tossup in my view. As to the publicity, Golovkin has fought in Europe, Asia and America. He brings much more visibility than the other three.

Garcia by wide UD, he WILL drop Thurman at least once.

I wonder if they've dragged their feet on promoting this fight so as not to hurt ticket sales for DeGale/Jack? Barclay was the obvious venue from the get go, but they've done a poor job thus far at promoting what should be a mega fight.
