Everyone needs to relax. Jacobs isn't breaking any "rules", he's voluntarily opting out of fighting for the IBF title. No big deal, he's still fighting for wba/wbc. Besides not having to make a 2nd day way in, he's gonna save money on sanctioning fees. I really don't see what the big deal is.

I lost all respect for this guy. If you want to change the rules, negotiate beforehand. Don't just skip out. Same goes for Lemieux.
I'll enjoy seeing Jacobs get beaten into submission.

Keith, if you'Re going to bring up circumstance, at least state that Lemieux and Stevens were IBF Eliminators as you stated so yourself vs actual title defense.
The main context is 2nd Day weigh in for an IBF title, as you stated so yourself, that the WBA and WBC have different rules. Therefore you could at least insinuated that ''perhaps'' Jacobs feels comfortable with accordance to traditional protocols for the others straps and nothing more.
Whereas Lemieux, ''forgot'' or ''didn't know'' about the 2nd Day weigh in applied to an IBF eliminator. How about Lemieux too knew the consequence but instead figured a win is better than the restriction. Considering it GBP setting up title shots for Lemieux wouldn't seem hard to make..
Jacobs has a completely different set of circumstances. Let a dude eat! Jacobs be looking toned in every fight since, thinner than Quillin, all under WBA rules...whereas Lemieux's fatass torso is suspect..
