Comments Thread For: Jacobs' Trainer Would Like Gennady Golovkin Rematch - Next

[yankees7448]

are you now trying to argue that power punching doesn't count, lol?

Golovkin throws 35 jabs a round, and clowns like you are now arguing that th fight is some washout. get over yourself.

Jacobs landed a total of 16 more power punches over a 12 round fight and you mother****ers are acting like he dominated. No. He got outpunched and dropped. That the fight was as close as it was is a testiment to how well he fought. But he lost.

Who gives a rat's a$$ who through more combos. All that means is that considering GGG through more punches despite throwing fewer combinations I.E he was more consistent with his offense.

Here is some math maybe you can understand:

More consistent offense+more accurate offense+scored the only knockdown in the fight+spent almost the entire fight moving forward= Victory for GGG.


Its easy to cry conspiracy when you don't do enough to win a close fight. Maybe if Jacobs did less posing and less moving backwards and more punching he would have won. Oh well.

Dude your lost. You should get in that ring and feel whats its like to be a fighter....Peace.

Personally, I know what its like to be a fighter. I've been a part of the roughest gang in Chappaqua NY since I was like a year and a half. I straight up cut a b!tch when she tried to use my blanky. So you better recognize.

First fight took about a year to make mostly because Jacobs behaved like he's the A side and wanted so much money. The rematch would probably take ten years now that he thought he won the fight. Make it happen doe. In ten years.

[just the facts]

I am sure whomever GGG fights will be better than the sacrificial lamb Jacobs gets matched up with. Haters crap all over GGG's resume but Jacob's competition has been downright pathetic. When Sergio Mora is your 4th best opponent by far you've got problems.

I see what you did there turning it on me but as the winner I would hope g strings next opponent would be better than who Jacobs fights. My question is if g string isn't gonna fight Canelo (stick that 15 million dollar offer in your arse Oscar) or Ward (already ducked that one) wouldn't a Jacobs rematch make sense? And who's he gonna fight instead? Back to the 2nd and 3rd raters? Another welter weight?

Fights are scored on a round by round bases, excluding the jab, in 8 of the 12 rounds, "Miracle Man" Daniel Jacobs was the fighter landing more of the heavier shots.

The fight was close, and could've gone either way; why are folks acting like there's no ground to run it back?

Fights are won on a round by round basis and GGG was generally the busier fight who was moving forward. And he scored the only knockdown. No one is saying we don't need to see a rematch but we need Jacobs fans and the GGG haters to come to grips with the fact that Jacobs lost a close and competitive fight.

[Ind Ividual]

Anything that is not a Jab is called a Power Punch. The reason we count Jabs appart is because they are strategic punches that control the distance and sets up everything else in the fight.

Precision percentage means nothing really If one's strategy is to throw a machine gun barrage jab at your face that let you do nothing but step backward or side to side, at the end of the round only the bullet-hole counts does.

People that insist Jacobs won the fight because he threw more power punches are sadly mistaken.

no one is arguing that the fight was a close and competitive one (that went the other way); not from anyweher I've seen, anyway.

My argument is that the fact that it was a close and competitive fight would mean that they should run it back, with the only showdown trumping that being the spectacle of the Alvarez fight (especially after the shenanigans in stalling out the Billy Joe Saunders fight, with Saunders now obligated to fight Khurtsidze since the WBO doesn't really rock with the other governing bodies).

If Alvarez vs Chavez Jr ends up being the blockbuster success that it seems to be and the fight ends up being a good one (prompting Golden Boy to likely look at staging the rematch in front of 70k at AT&T Stadium), Golovkin has no other real option but to fight Jacobs again

I don't see things quite as black and white. As long as he is taking on quality fighters I don't care because for me the most important thing is to see good fights. So if GGG doesn't get Canelo but chooses to fight the winner of Saunders vs. Khurtsidze I would be ok with that. Its a unification fight which would give GGG all the belts. But I don't limit those options to just a unification fight. Jermall Charlo is a talented and exciting young fighter who becomes GGG's mandatory once he beats Jorge Sebastian Heiland. So I wouldn't have a single problem with him taking that fight. And if after those two fights Canelo finally thinks GGG is old enough to be a safe opponent then I'd be ok with that fight happening as well. While I would love to see a rematch with Jacobs sooner rather than later I don't mind waiting for it as long as GGG fights good opponents in meaningful fights. A good fight is a good fight. Now if he chose a voluntary defense over guys at the Brian Rose, Sergio Mora or Tommy Langford level (guys who suck and aren't ranked anywhere near the top 10 of the division) instead of Daniel Jacobs I'll be right with you the flaming torches and pitchforks calling for his head.
