How Does Jacobs Defeat Golovkin?...

[Redd Foxx]

I didn't pick him but if Jacobs wins I can see him playing it very conservatively for a couple rounds, just moving and peppering in light counters. Once he has his range, I can see Danny hurting him with a clean uppercut and finishing him off.

Hmm, I don't get how most are saying jump on GGG early. Yeah, he has to earn some respect (measured & focussed). Too much nervous energy and he's liable to get decked in the process. All the "Jump and hope for the best" talk like the guy has no craft.

If you are the coach for Danny Jacobs, what is your gameplan going into the fight with Golovkin?

Fight your fight, and the stoppage will come, imo.

Golovkin is there to be hit; for all the talk about his style, there are obvious holes in Golovkin's game that are there to exploit.

Mind your defense, heavy jab to control the space, and hammer Golovkin when he tries to force his way in. Punch Golovkin in between his shots, and Jacobs' power is of the sort that he can end things on a single shot.
