    Both lara and jacobs blew their chance at stardom

    Both lara and jacobs seemed more worried about trying to outpoint the star fighter instead of seizing the moment and taking the fight to the star.

    Lara :barely threw anything and ran around . Now hes pretty much evaporated into nothingness.

    Jacobs: was coined as the guy who beat cancer and would not be afraid ofthe big bad wolf and take the fight to him. But instead tried to outbox gg and looked boring infront of a ton of people. Could he also be on his way to being forgotten

        Not the same at all Jacobs actually fought and his stock without a doubt rose despite officially losing. He will get another big payday fans want to see him again and demand a rematch. Lara literally refused to fight and ran like a coward putting on a horrible performance that fans don't ever want to see again. There was no demand for a rematch. His stock fell and he's branded a boring runner. He's banished to fighting bums on Friday night.

          This. As far as I'm concerned, Jacobs stock has sky rocketed. Alot of people think he won the fight. Myself included.

            Lara never had a chance at stardom. If he got the decision see Rigo. The only way he stays relevant is by either winning or fighting well enough "not to lose"

              If boxing was still banned in the USSR Jacobs would be a huge star right now.

                Jacobs won massive respect from everyone for the GGG fight. Lara put everyone to sleep with his style. Both are great but personally I can't wait to see who Jacobs fights next. If he makes the right moves I can see him becoming a huge star.

                Let the rematch with GGG marinate. Beat Lemieux, Stevens, Saunders, and eventually fight winner of Canelo v. GGG. I'm hyped...

                    I'm sorry I don't follow. No one gave Jacobs a chance. That's the truth. Jacobs showed what he made of and made everyone eat their words
