JACOBS wont have the 20lb size advantage the next time. JACOBS had every prefight advantage as far as the 6am weigh in friday to skipping the ibf ten pound limit Saturday and the late start Saturday. Which allowed a full 36 hour replenish time with Victor Conte leading the way.

Ggg will demand year round VADA testing which JACOBS skipped.

Since when did Jacobs have a 20 lb size advantage? And why does the IBF silly 10 pound rule have to be followed for as rematch?

PS...how silly is it that you're accusing a cancer survivor of putting chemicals in his body to enhance performance. Jacobs is no Lance Armstrong...

Flat footed slow fighters are all easy picking for ggg.

they are easy pickings for Canelo as well

Plodkin is slooooow

He definitely beat Paul Williams, and I thought his contest with Canelo was a draw at the least! Lara is a very high skilled fighter, just like his countryman Rigondeaux! PBC did cut back the number of networks they're using, but they've had some of the best cards in boxing since fall 2016! Broner vs. Garcia will be another one!

yea Lara beat Williams....and ran around the ring like he was scared crapless against Canelo. That does not get p4p status. He has not done squat last few years....Delvin Rodriguez and Yuri Foreman - pathetic! He can thank Haymon for those pitiful fights and not allowing him to fight Charlos.

Next time ggg fights Jacobs he will not hesitate to throw and take a risk. The thing is, GGG also knows Jacobs can be hurt and can't hurt him. Jacobs was not right there with ggg the whole time, anyone who says so didn't watch it closely upon replay.

Weight obvious makes a difference, they have classes for a reason. Lemiuex and Jacobs played a game, they could. But to deny it is disingenuous.

Since Jacobs refused the September fight and oviously put on muscle before the ggg camp, (look at pictures going into September and then Feb) its legit to question if he cycled. Until ggg fight he wasn't doing VADA. I also heard He also didn't test after the fight (they demanded it) and not much word about his testing before. GGG was tested 5 times. All allowed to keep from having a purse bid. K2 knows that won't be the case next time.

However, it more like 15+ pounds were the rumors coming into the fight. He had 36 hours to rehydrated fully while ggg had less. And since Jacobs refused the HBO weigh in, it's safe to say that he didn't come in at the 175 he said.

If he was only 175-180 there's no reason to skip the hbo weigh in a create the storyline he came in. But if he came in at 185+, then he's forming in around where Kov came in for the Pascal fight.

I know for a fact (whether people believe it is on them, don't care) that k2 feels Jacobs cone in super heavy and when they rematch they will nail that down, as they no longer need him as a mandatory. Plus, they won't have the IBF weighing ggg down for another Jacobs fight. They will close the gap within 5 to 7 pounds.

Faster feet than canelo. Pretty fast to win a silver medal.

All silver means is you lost.

So a young man can't put on muscle in 5 months without PEDS? And Jacobs and team couldn't possible think that to maximize his energy he needed to skip that weigh in and rehydrate on a different schedule. Where is the OBJECTIVE EVIDENCE. lastly, so a career MW is gonna force a rehydration restriction on another MW? Wow!

Pacquiao and Canelo haven't done squat the last 2 years, but I bet they're still in the Top 10 P4P. It's all subjective!

Great read, Breadman.

I want to see Jacobs fight soon with one of the better MWs.
