Comments Thread For: Jacobs: Golovkin's Power Isn't What It Was Made Out to Be

[IRONCHINHAGLER]

none of that matters. Son of Judges Golovkin has a $15 million offer on the table. what's the holdup?

GGG is way too slow for cinnamon. a little upper body movement nullified his attack. Cinnamon is very slick in the pocket and puts combos together like no other.

it's gonna be brutal beating.

Canelo couldn't even drop an old slower smaller Cotto or a chinny Lara...guess U believe he has power frm Ko of smaller glass chin Khan

[PunchyPotorff]

well why did you run away from him all fight where was your power? Didnt so much as wobble ggg. he put you on the seat of your pants. were scared to let your hands go

Hahaha so you outlanded/outthrew GGG? Yeah right that's not what the punch stats show? And where was your power mr. 90% ko ratio with 12 kos in a row and a 20lbs weight advantage over GGG on the night? GGG didn't blink twice and walked through your weak ass punches all night which is why he kept coming forward and left the arena with skin good enough for a commercial. Meanwhile you wore shades in the post match conference to cover up two black eyes! Also don't forget you ended up on your ass in round 3 and did the chicken dance a few times so yeah his power's for real. AND STILL undefeated...let that sink in homegirl!

Unbelievable you azzhatt little GGGaholics and your lack of respect. The man just did what no other fighter has done vs GGG, AND traded a bunch of leather with this supposed Mr Boogeyman. What feking planet do you eediotts live on anyway? Yur an us?

GGG fans: "It's because Jacobs was 200 pounds on fight night" So Boxing is now considered running? Jacobs landing hard body and head shots is running now?

The GGGaholics can't see, hear or think so well with their head up their back doors 24/7365. All they know is blind allegiance to their cult leader. And that includes not being able to man up and admit their idol was schooled in the past 2 fights. Wait til the goofball gets in there with Canelo. The drug stores will be cashing in on that one... selling the heavy meds like they're going outta style. And the uncontrollable sobbing. It's coming.

Yeah okay. Personally, I had Jacobs winning (by one point), but it was extremely close and could've gone either way. I'm not mad at the decision, it was that close; I'm just saying what I see. GGG fans are being extremely defensive because they know what they saw and know GGG was lucky to get the decision. Quit crying.

I've seen way more Jacobs fans crying. Crying robbery despite him being dropped and outlanded 9/12 rounds. Now that's crying.

You're right. "Crying" isn't the right way to put it - that would indicate childishness. Its more like GGG fans are acting like insecure teenage girls - catty, *****y, or whatever you want to call it.

It was a close tough fight and I thought that Jacobs edged it. I am fine with GGG getting the decision because there were a few close rounds that could had gone either way.

On the flip side it shows the ignorance of the hardcore GGG fans in their posts. It is like Pac-tards all over again

NEW YORK Daniel Jacobs began believing the hype about Gennady Golovkin's power prior to their fight Saturday night. "The way you guys made it seem," Jacobs said early Sunday morning, "it was just like, Man, this guy is really the boogey man. Can he really knock out guys with one shot?' "

OH did GGG got Exposed everybody said Jacobs would get KO in 3 I knew my boy DJ would give him his toughest fight of his career Jacobs is really underated 8 to 1 underdog that was disrespectful Boxing is very unpredictable Jacobs status Just Sky Rocket I thought the fight was a draw great night of boxing

I remember when Cotto was the lineal middleweight champion that the media outright disrespected his achievement in articles by consistently adding "although many regard GGG as the BEST middleweight in the world" every time they mentioned his status.

What now?

GGG just had his first fight on that higher level, and his "status" as the best has already been proven not to be a certainty. It was utterly disrespectful to have done that to Cotto without true proof of superiority.

People, including the media, kept talking about judging GGG based off the eye-test; that was hype. I have eyes of my own, and I said it from the first time I saw GGG that, while having great punching technique, he wasn't the monster people were making him out to be. In all honesty, I don't believe for a second his legacy will even come close to matching Cotto's, which just shows how fickle fans are in having disrespected a true boxing legend.

These hype trains should stop; fighters need to prove who they truly are in the ring before people place them above others. It doesn't work that way.

Anyone can look great fighting against low-level opposition; even here in PR, look at Felix Verdejo. Everyone thought he'd be the next great champ based off his domination of low-level opponents, but once the competition edged ever so slightly upwards, he's been one punch away from defeat since.

I suspect the same will happen to GGG now. He's not chinny, of course, but if they continue matching him up with good opposition, his vulnerabilities will be exposed.

yep, and I remember when the fans did that as well

they bashed Cotto, because they needed GGG to be great

oh, and.....

they bashed Mayweather because they needed GGG to be great

they bashed Ward because they needed GGG to be great

they bashed Lara because they needed GGG to be great

they bashed Martinez because they needed GGG to be great

they bashed Froch because they needed GGG to be great

they bashed Canelo because they needed GGG to be great

they bashed Saunders because they needed GGG to be great

they bashed Jacobs because they needed GGG to be great

they bashed Hopkins because they needed GGG to be great

they bashed Hagler because they needed GGG to be great

and..... they did all that exact same shht with Pacquiao

I am really glad all of that rubbish is over

no, wait.....

[aboutfkntime]

boo-hoo...GGG undefeated and top 3 consensus p4p just defeated the #2 ranked MW in the world.. Deal with it!!! And just like GGG - the majority of the boxing press scored that fight for Kov ovr Ward!!

I would actually rate Golovkin #4 at middleweight

Canelo is better than Golovkin, and we all saw what happened with Jacobs..... and I have a sneaky su****ion that Saunders sneaky southpaw style, movement, and defense, would give Golovkin fits

I have Golovkin at #4, in-between Saunders and Eubank

and P4P?..... pffffffff

where is Jacobs ranked P4P ?

[aboutfkntime]

Canelo couldn't even drop an old slower smaller Cotto or a chinny Lara...guess U believe he has power frm Ko of smaller glass chin Khan

Lara and Cotto are world-class

Golovkin couldn't even KO Jacobs, Canelo will smoke him
