Comments Thread For: Lemieux, Stevens Disagree on Jacobs' Chances Against Golovkin

[HeroBando]

''Golovkin has proved 15 million plus PPV is not prize fighting, and has also proved figthing a retired WW at 154 is more justified than having fought him at 155 in 2016, or 160 in 2017 with a lossed pen.'' - Brook

Lossed pen? Still no progress on your English, eh dumb Turk. Try an ESL course

That logically doesn't make sense. These are active fighters. Abel and Gennady have said that canelo says gimme gimme thisss. What is Canelo asking for?

Canelo could just have offered to defend his title, done the basic champ challenger split, and Golovkin would've had to take it, or forever hold his tongue. But now, because they surrendered the belt, whatever happens looks, the impression is that Canelo (Oscar) is ducking.

[bluepete]

It was never about getting the belt. The belt and the mandatory position was all about leverage in negotiations.

But while they are trying to get leverage one of them can get beat in the meantime. When if the defence was offered and made, we'd already be on the rematch and rolling in the money.

not only does jacobs have no chance to win he won't last as long as stevens or lemieux did.

[Derranged]

Of course Jacobs has a puncher's chance.

Totally agree with you great post. 3 or 4 rounds tops.

So what if one of them gets beat? It's the match up that you want to see right? Oh wait..."we'd already be....rolling in the money". Hmmmm....

Before I even read the article, I knew Lemiiuex would say GGG and Stevens would say Jacobs how predictable was that.

I'm thinking back to Bowe Lewis getting constantly pushed back by defeats until the fight was lost for good. The fight is nowhere near as big if one of them takes a defeat, particularly if it's bad. Boxing needs this kind of thing to stop. We would be on the rematch, and yeah, id make a fair bit of money because I'd be betting Golovkin on points, was 3 to 1 at William Hill.
