Comments Thread For: Jacobs' Manager: GGG's Side Will Make Excuses to Avoid Rematch

[aboutfkntime]

All your opinions are utter rubbish. We're even.

nah, I have never said anything this silly.....

"Great fighters..... just need to be in great fights against the best opposition they can get."

[aboutfkntime]

Wow, great point bro. Didn't even realize Ward has three belts, which don't mean **** to the GGG c.ocklix.

Ward will ALWAYS have Kovalev problems

but.....

they have already forgotten about GGG's "Jacobs" problem

[hitking]

You came out made a strong statement that in order for a fighter to be great he needs to move up. Your very acknowledgement of Hagler's greatness is a tacit admission you were wrong. I was making a very specific point to something you specifically said.

As for the rest, I agree. The problem with GGG is that there is no Tommy Hearns, Roberto Duran or Sugar Ray Leonard to test himself against. Miguel Cotto could have been a much lesser version of Roberto Duran for GGG's resume but Cotto chose to run away. In any case, I would argue that the only guys north of 160 that could have a similar impact on GGG's resume would be Andre Ward and Sergei Kovalev. But during the time GGG was starting to get known amongst the American fight fans Andre Ward was locked up in a legal fight with his promoter that derailed his career for a while. For his part Sergei Kovalev fought (and still fights) two divisions higher than GGG. With potentially big money fights against superstar fighters like Miguel Cotto (at the time) and Saul Alvarez on the horizon can anyone really blame GGG for holding out to see if he could get those fights.

Finally, we do not know what heights guys like Jacobs, Andrade and the Charlo brothers can achieve. Maybe the flame out. Maybe there is a future hall of famer in there amongst them. Who knows. It'll be excited to find out and I'd love for GGG to be the one who helps determine that.





That's interesting. I did not know that.

GGG is 35 and ZERO signature wins on his resume. That's the key thing that his "haters" point to. And instead of seeking out signature names. He's trying to manufacture greatness with this bull**** belt quest. The champion makes the belt. The belt don't make the champion. Lemieux is a bum. Belt or not. Saunders is a bum. Belt or not. Canelo is legit. But how long is GGG supposed to wait on that. Most ATGs move up. For every Hagler, there's a Leonard, Hearns, Duran, Sweet Pea, Roy Jones, Floyd, and Manny. Who else you got, Monzon? Stop making excuses for this dude. You don't become great by beating bull**** paper titlist.

Your a clown Jacobs rematched mora & kod him, & ggg picked a non hbo or tv fight instead of fighting mora to fight a bum Adana.
:*******::

Mora is a smart guy. He's really eloquent and I love to hear him talk about boxing. But the guy peaked when he beat Vernon Forrest back in 2008. His best win since that time came against someone GGG had destroyed 9 months prior. Adana was a busy fight everyone knew that. Mora would have been a stay busy fight as well. At the time Mora was still trying to rebuild himself after losing to the indomitable Brian Vera for the second time.


Seriously, you couldn't come up with a better opponent than Mora???

And the fights were equally close.

that is what I can't stand about you ***-tards

FACT: Mr "anyone from 154-168" totally refused to negotiate on weight with lil old faded 153lb Cotto..... Cotto said I will fight anyone at catchweight, but Mr "154-168" totally refused to consider fighting under 160, despite the fact that Cotto was his best possible payday

Cotto continued doing his thing, and Golovkin refused to be a part of it..... and yet, you CHOOSE to blame the A-side, Cotto..... not the B-side, Mr "anyone from 154-168", who totally refused to live up to his hype, AGAIN

and only pond-scum deny that GGG avoided Ward TWICE

your boy just got exposed by Danny Jacobs, so you should seriously STFU about Ward

[chubuk7]

So5'9" Canelo at 26 yrs old is supposed to face fighters that are up to 6'1" as well as the best in their divisions every fight? Hes supposed to fight at multiple weights,hes supposed to jump 15 lbs instead of 10 to face a 6'1" lhw with a far better record than ggg? Hes weightdraining chavez by not accommodating him by moving up 15 lbs. So chavezcito need not stay disciplined? Hes also supposed to give the other fighter half his money because the other fighter said so? Hes also supposed to move up or down randomly each fight to face the best at both jmw & mw? Ggg on the other hand should not be judged on actual resume but by duckers resume oh sorry supposed duckers resume? When gs retired the hall of fame will say even though you chose the weakest unknown fighters with horrible records you are still a legend because were sure if youd fought those hof fighters youd have won. Its those guys who are a disgrace even though they all fought each other? Ggg is such a special talent that he doesn't need to fight bigger guys because its unfair to him to not be the bigger man,& if he loses to a 1 off bigger man he didnt lose because he was at a disadvantage & it shouldn't count? We ALL KNOW G WOULD DESTROY ANYONE FROM 154-168 SO HE DOESNT NEED TO MESS UP HIS FACIAL SCRUB BY FIGHTING THOSE PUSHOVER P4P CHAMPIONS? Only a moron like me would ever doubt such truths?:bukkake:

You are moron, agree

neither could Team Bullshht

they ducked Mora to fight someone worse

showing your ignorance I'm afraid

back in 2012, that fight was a no-brainer...... the very best opponent for an up-and-comer who is trying to establish himself on the world stage..... is an ex-champ who has clearly faded..... EVERYONE knows that, and boxing has ALWAYS worked that way

that dozen-or-so silly excuses that Loeffler stuttered and stammered his way through to kill any talk of that fight, were highly amusing..... as are yours

you dumbass...... after watching the Jacobs fight, it is clearly obvious why they avoided mover/spoilers like Mora/Lara/Ward

The funny thing about the Cotto-GGG thing is. They're pretty much the same age. Yet its Cotto who's the grizzled old vet, with the iron clad HOF resume. That didn't want to face the up-n-coming lion in GGG looking for a big name on his resume. Puts it in perspective how pathetic GGG's resume is.

[kushking]

You are moron, agree

The fact you dont understand sarcasm proves your the moron. And you agreeing proves you are 51/50 ggg fanboi.
