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

[yankees7448]

If Haymon is smart he'll pair up Jacobs against Charlo. Canelo fighting Golovkin right now so Jacobs and Charlo also need a big fight to put pressure on the winner of Canelo/Golovkin and other champions (Saunders) to fight em.

Fans will definitely demand the winner of that bout to fight one of the champions, or rather, will demand one of the champions fight the winner of Jacobs/Charlo.

But I think Jacobs won't want to fight another power puncher so soon after Golovkin, especailly one as just as big as he is but more vicious, with a much better chin too.

I don't think Charlo will go along with it. I would be happy if he did but I don't think he'd want to risk it. He has a guaranteed path to fight with GGG if GGG wins. If GGG loses and the title becomes vacant he'd be in line to fight Jacobs for the vacant title. So why take the fight now?

That would also make the card too expensive.

Everything i posted is in fact TRUE . It doesnt matter what papers he got ,he cancelled the fight entirely and it was found the levels in Povetkin were still UNDER the legal allowed amount from it being previously NOT illegal .

Wilder told Parker he had to fight Stiverne first .....who won that rematch which was announced Feb. 27th ? Only when Parker was scheduled to fight his MANDATORY Fury did Wilder call him out .

Its not bias ,in the real world we call it facts .

The funny thing is theres NOTHING official yet nd you guys are going into great depth on faith here when story teller Wilder history isnt exactly solid ground . One would think by now you guys would at least wait for an ACTUAL statement release ! smh


"And no HW has been trying to fight the other top guys but Wilder as of late. "

You are dumber than a pile of bricks.

1) UFC 217 is also on the same night as this and that card is absolutely stacked with 3 world title fights, the return of GSP, a grudge match in Garbrandt and Dillashaw and another top fight in Masvidal V Thompson

masivdal vs wonderboy thompson? thats a damn good fight...i also heard joanna jerdyckzkzk or whatever is also on the card ...showtime would be damn ****** to put anything on that night

So we'll get Joshua vs Ortiz next year. Can't wait to see Ortiz knock wilder out.

And when Wilder wins?

So Wilder got paid $5M for cancelling the fight against a drug free Povetkin? Maybe you out to check out the WBCs statement on the situation before spewing nonsense. As for Wilder and Parker, that fight has been talked about by Wilder since he finished Washington in Feb. I believe Parker was in attendance. Parker and Wilder would be happening soon if not for Stiverne and Fury injury.

I favor Jacobs to beat Lee by kayo myself. If he stays disciplined and has a healthy respect for Lee's power he can I see him wearing Lee out and stopping him in the mid rounds.

But Lee's best wins all came from counter punches and if Jacobs gets wild and allows himself to get clipped it could be nighty-night for him.

The only other good match for Jacobs I would want to see is him vs Charlo but I doubt it happens.

Lee is a slow starter... in the later rounds he used to be solid...

Who Jacobs winds up fighting will say a lot about him. Is he the bada$$ boogey man GGG's haters make him out to be or is he the guy who is content with not getting KO'ed?

No one has made Jacobs out to be the "bada$$ boogey man." He is only lil g's "bada$$ boogey man."

What a stacked card!!!

I'm happy that The Bronze Bomber is finally able to test his mettle against a clear solid opponent and show the world why he should be the next best thing in America as America's only heavyweight champ!

Ortiz is the boogeyman of the division as Joshua rather fight a Bulgarian that's shook of him instead of King Kong!

I'm picking Wilder to end Ortiz within 9 rounds, once your hurt and caught in that Windmill Storm of Doom it'll be over cuz the ref will have to save you from being carried off in a casket!

Gonna be a great fight!

Good to see The Miracle Man himself back in action! Thought Haymon should've gotten him right back active after displaying the best performance of his career in nearly beating the middleweight monster in Golovkin, the 160 boogeyman!

Him vs Andy Lee is gonna be really good fight! I'm taking Jacobs by 10th Round stoppage or even 8th!

Lipinets?? Ehh, he'd get washed by Bud so it's only right he fights someone like Postol!

In case King Kong is still standing in the 9th, I can't see Wilder stopping him...

The same: in case Lee gets passed the 8th, it is likely to be difficult -- because Lee used to be a solid fighter in the later rounds (the Kronk gym school)...

You think you slick like all the lil g fans saying for Charlo & Jacobs to fight each other so there is less threat for lil g. GTFOH! Jacobs & Jermall should both beat up lil g then they can mix & match fights how bout that!?!
