Daniel Jacobs educating GGG fans on what a real Cruiserweight looks like

Posting a pic of a cw off season to prove his point he didn't weigh over 175 lbs. FACEPALM.

Danny Jacobs didn't do the early morning weigh-in so some Golovkin fans claimed he cheated and came in extremely heavy which is why he was able to go 12 rounds and give a good fight

Okay I do remember some noise about this now that you bring it up.

My hot takes:
Fighters have no obligation to carry out unofficial same day weigh ins.
BUT it's a bad look for Jacobs that he didn't want to do one.
BUT all that is irrelevant for how the fight went, Jacobs could have put in that same performance with or without a weight advantage.

I had it Golovkin 7-5 the night of the fight and after the match I thought a lot more of Jacobs as a potentially elite fighter, I still rate it Golovkin's best win.

but it wasnt really...that was a bunch of people scoring the fight a lot closer than it should have been simply because jacobs was doing better than expected(or cause they hate ggg so of course they are going to have bad cards) if you remember some people had jacobs winning the first 3 rounds which is absurd as ggg clearly won 1 and 3 so they got off to a bad start in scoring and prob never recovered because if you think jacobs won those rounds then you prob think he won a lot of others when in reality he won 4-5 tops and they were all close.

Just so that we're clear before going any further, you can't point to a single round where you can clearly say "that one went to Jacobs"?

This is what a cruiserweight looks like! I was 174lbs fight night for the record. Skills & determination got me thru not a weight advantage https://t.co/WiCg2doDv1

Mr Jacobs, we don't listen to GG fans when it comes to describing his or your fight with him. They cried that you were a CW that night because they had to find a reason why GG didn't ko you or put you down the way Sergio Mora did. They tried to use the mandatory weigh in before the fight as an excuse and all kinds of other excuses from carrying Jacobs to whatever...and their man won lol. You didn't have to do this. We knew this-us real boxing fans did.

Same day weigh in's with hydration test....

Professional Boxing won't do it thou because its all about the money **** safety.
