      He's rightfully an underdog based on the past performances of both fighters. If he wins it will be a significant upset.

        Dropped by Mora recently, yet you're still trying to hype this guy as anything more than a usual GGG routine KO win.

        You're boring, find something else to post about or get out the house and find a woman to lose your ******ity with. Hell the forum will even have a whip around for you we'll pay for you to lose it.

          I believe Jacobs will end up doing a hit and hold tactic ala ward. smother his opponent with the intent of not giving GGG that space he needs to land that one shot that will make him do the dance. with virgil hunter whispering in his ear i can see this happening.

            Jacob's underestimated? By who? I'm sure GGG and his team aren't underestimating him, and those are the only people that matter.

            Pirog is probably not better than everyone GGG has fought. If GGG would've beaten Pirog he would've been counted like another nobody. It's only because he beat Jacobs that people remember him and give him credit.

              I think many fans underestimate him.He has improved a lot since the Pirog loss. He has 12 straight KOs including KOs of Mora and Quillen who have never been KOed before. I think Jacob would KO almost everybody at 160 or 154. Still he will get KOed by GGG who is the world's best middleweight. The nice thing about being a GGG fan is that he always wins by KO. The bad thing about being a GGG hater like SugarRayHook is that he always disappoints them and wins by KO.

                  Very true and that is exactly the problem with boxing fans.

                    GGG is imo an A- level boxer which is why he is an 8-1 favorite. If GGG wins this will be the best opponent he has defeated and he will get credit from me and every rational fan.

                    As for this thread, it's utterly disgraceful that GGG fans keep pretending he Is being devalued just to take credit away from GGG should he win.

                    Added to that, the very scummiest GGG fans have been trying to premptively justify if GGG loses by implying Jacobs is on roids.

                    Never seen such an immature and mentally weak fanbase in all my years of watching the sport.
                    Have u met Mayweather's fan base?

                      All of the criteria you listed in Jacobs favor is relevant but is not the main reason why this will be a difficult fight for GGG. Jacobs is an excellent boxer, puncher and will not be intimidated by GGG.
