Comments Thread For: Trainer: Jacobs Fighting on Canelo-Golovkin is 'Strong Possibility'

[yankees7448]

GGG vs. Canelo
Billy Joe Saunders vs. David Lemieux (I think events are dictating this happens)
Walter Matteysse vs. TBA
Danny Jacobs vs. TBA

So far this is looking like a promising card.

i wouldnt be surprissed if he fights chavez at 168... the easiest fight to make will be tureano...

Tureano Johnson makes the most sense. Lemieux is waiting to see if he is going to get the mandatory shot against Saunders. With the Kurt fight called of because he got arrested then next highest ranked WBO fighter is Lemieux. So why fight Jacobs if you can get a direct title shot? And the Lemieux/Cotto fight might be a real in dec. Lemieux can also fight Canelo after GGG he was definitely going to get the fight in Sept if GGG didn't sign. A Canelo or Cotto fight pays Lemieux more money. That leaves Jacobs as the odd man out. Jacobs might be signing Golden Boy or at least agreeing to future fight options to land on the undercard.

Just like Mikey Garcia did, Nostradunny.

true

any talk of putting Jacobs on against Lee or any other non-GBP fighter is ******ed. Why would Golden Boy waste a televised undercard slot on an event like this on a non-GBP fighter who cant draw flies?

Makes no sense, unless they are signing Jacobs.

Just like Mikey Garcia did, Nostradunny.

what happened to mikey signing with Schaefer? How come Schaefer who did everything but beg him isn't involved at all with the Broner fight? Jacobs is the one talking about wanting to get on Golden Boy's PPV they won't be doing that for free.

He has 2 losses thats why.

The only time PBC or other promoters let their guys fight outside their stables these days are after theyve taken L's.
