Comments Thread For: Wilder-Ortiz, Jacobs, Lipinets Showtime Tripleheader in Play

[yankees7448]

Who Jacobs fights depends on the outcome of Canelo-GGG. If Canelo wins, WBC becomes vacant and #1 Charlo will fight #2 Jacobs.

OOOOOOOOh didn't think about that. I don't think that fight would be next for either one of them though. I think Jacobs will take a stay busy fight in November and then that matchup would come in the first quarter of 2018.

That should be a good fight. Almost makes me want to see GGG lose because otherwise I don't know if we'll ever see it.

Finally Windmiller steps up and takes a risk, credit to him.

I lean towards him slightly in this one but Ortiz is without question a big, dangerous sob.

agreed but its not like he hasnt tried in the past

Dude, I hope you're righr cuz I'm pretty sure canelo will whoop GGG. Just don't see how Showtime could have a budget big enough for both wilder-ortiz and Jacobs-charlo on the same card. Both Jacob and charlo will want main event fight type of paydays.

I go honestly feel that 8f this card was announced and it's on PPV, it'll generate enough buzz and revenue to accommodate all purses.

No it wouldn't. Jacobs and GGG barely broke 170k. I don't see the kind of star power necessary to do much better. Mostly still a hardcore fan kind of event.

great thread you made there LOL

Could Korobov be in play here for the Jacobs opponent? I have a feeling it will be Murray, Lee or Korobov. Just look at the top 16 in MW computerized rankings.

1 Jermall Charlo
2 Daniel Jacobs
3 David Lemieux CA
4 Sergiy Derevyanchenko
5 Martin Murray UK
6 Avtandil Khurtsidze GE
7 Willie Monroe Jr
8 Hassan N'Dam N'Jikam
9 Andy Lee
10 Immanuwel Aleem
11 Jorge Sebastian Heiland
12 Ishe Smith
13 Sam Soliman
14 Ryota Murata
15 Luis Arias
16 Matt Korobov

Ishe Smith probably

Wilder by KO in the 6th round stoppage, I think Jacobs may get a soft touch in this next fight because I believe he'll be looking to get a fight with the winner of the GGG-Canelo fight. Don't know if he'll get it though.

I'm glad it was put to rest. This is a fight I want to see but like I said, all reports are roumors until it's official.

Dude, wilder pulled almost 1.3 million viewers on Showtime when he beat steverne for the vacant title. Do you know how hard that it to do on Showtime? Young, promising Heavyweight champions always attract a ton of attention. If you throw charlo-jacobs in, I could see it doing 350-400k buys. That plus gate and endorsements would generate more than $20 millions, which is more than enough to cover all purses

GGG did better numbers on HBO. Its easier to convince someone to watch a night of fights on a channel they already pay for than it is to convince them to shell out $60 for those same fights in a one off.

Wilder knocks out this overrated cuban chump Ortiz.

And dream on. Jacobs isnt facing Charlo this soon.
