Lemiuex or Saunders. Saunders has a fight in July I think so assuming he wins, Jacobs probably gotta wait till November or Dec to fight Saunders.
So who is Danny Jacobs going to fight next?

How about Lara vs Jacobs. They are both good fighters and good cry babies. If Lara can't beat Jacobs he has no business calling out GGG. If Jacobs can't beat Lara he doesn't deserve a rematch. Jacobs could also fight Saunders or Eubank if either of them will do more than just talk a good fight. The main thing is for Jacobs to quit complaining he got robbed in his home state. He should get back in the ring and show that he is always as good as he looked against GGG. Lemieux is another excellent opponent and Lemieux will fight anybody. I think Jacobs is the third best middleweight in the world behind GGG and Canelo and in front of Lemieux and Saunders. If he is better than that he should prove it in the ring. Losing a close UD to GGG is impressive but he still lost.Comment

Lara actually called out the Jacobs vs Quillin winner when he was promoting his Zaveck fight.
Nov 2015,
Lara answering a question pre Zaveck fight:
"Obviously the big fights, that's the reason I'm in the sport. But if we can't get the Canelos and we can't get the Golovkins, there's the winner of Danny Jacobs and Quillin, and there's Andy Lee. All those guys are targets I want to get at 160 if I get the opportunity. If not, I'm going to keep conquering 154 pounds and defending my titles against the best guys who'll get in the ring against me."
By Lyle Fitzsimmons - If nothing else, Erislandy Lara has adjusted well to being jilted. Though he considered himself a clear winner when matched with Canelo Alvarez, he hasn’t spent the 16 months since the disappointment result plying his sadness with ice cream and binge TV. He’s OK. And he can talk about it these days without tears. “My mind is that I won the fight,” Lara said. “In this game I’ve been though it before, like in the Paul Williams fight. Another fight where I won the fight but didn’t get the decision. Look, I’ve moved on. I’m a headliner. I headlined my own show in Chicago, which was a good show, and now I’m down here in Miami on ESPN. One of the biggest sports events, the day before Thanksgiving. I’m excited.” Indeed, Lara will tend to his own business on Wednesday night about 10 miles from downtown Miami, where he’ll risk the IBO share of the 154-pound kingdom against No. 17 contender Jan Zaveck at the Hialeah Park Racing & Casino complex.Comment

Nobody is available or willing. Not Lemieux, Saunders, Murata, Willie Monroe Jr. They should give Korobov or Lee a call. Then beat up Jr. for exposure.Originally posted by The TimeHe is scheduled to or supposed to be fighting on the undercard of Golovkin-Canelo. No opponent mentioned yet.Comment
