Spence is an A level Jacobs is B-ball yet Jacobs is better

[McNulty]

pretty unfair to say...dude broke his back..and not mike tyson broken back..like for real for real broken back

No he didn't you fůcking peasant.

Dmitry Pirog ruptured a disc in his back while training

He trains with big tires and a sledgehammer, and he hits the tire with the sledgehammer, and he was doing that and he ruptured a disc in his back. They said they don't want to do surgery but they are saying they want him to rest for 30 days and then they will re-evaluate him.

Ruptured (aka herniated) disc isn't a broken back and he didn't get that from hitting a tire with a sledgehammer. It's not a serious injury, very basic and very fixable. I have a similar injury. If you're in your 50's you probably have a herniated disc. It happens when you get older.

Something else went down with Pirog nobody is talking about. He was suppossed to fight Golovkin, now that IS interesting.

I never liked that A B C grading system. There is no exact definition or understanding of it. Different people have their own ideas on how this grading works. Spence and Jacobs are both excellent fighters. I think Spence is probably the best welterweight in the world and Jacobs is one of the 3 best middleweights in the world. I never use this method of grading boxers but if I did I would rate them both A or A-level because they are both good world champion type boxers. Giving Jacobs a B- grade seems ridiculous to me. Jacobs would be a hard fight for any middleweight past or present. If he is a B- fighter then A level fighters don't exist. B- sounds to me like a grade for a top 30 contender. Any top 10 contender should be a solid B and any legit world champion should be at least a B+. Good champions like Spence and Jacobs should be at least A- level. Outstanding proven champions should be A level or what the hell is A level for? Supermen?

You summed it up perfectly. I just don't understand how one guy can be a better boxer than the other but be ranked B while the other guy is ranked A. It's like Sergey and Thurman. Both are A-Level but for some reason a lot of people around here think that Thurman is B-Level when he is better overall than Sergey.

duuuuuuuuude ..what the hell is up with people on this site. is this where you come to blow off steam from your crappy daily life? christ reality must be AWFUL for you lol he CLEARLY had a back injury that prevented him from competing at the highest level of boxing are you ******ed or what?

[RyanjLarose]

That dude made one of the dumbest f'ing posts of all times. I was tempted to reply to it but it would've been a waste of time.

your so right...his response to me is a clear indicator of what kind of human he is...man im starting to realize why i dont post here much ...first some dude is crapping all over cuban boxing for some reason now this dude is crying about a back injury

i'd love to see a picture of you lol a guy who gets that worked up over something so ridiculous has got to be one ugly fat piece of trash.




that you mcnutly? fat old piece of garbage lol

Pirog gets underrated on this board. He had elite defense and pretty good offense. Jacobs has an argument for beating GGG whereas Spence beat a broken Brook.

Jacobs isn't more skilled than The Truth. Spence has better fundamentals and his win over Kell is better than any of Jacobs' wins.

Truth.

I've never seen a fighter crack under the lights like Jacobs did vs Golovkin. He has a solid performance but his out busts after landing a good shot was insane... why not follow it up? Naw i'm to busy yelling because i have to prove he's not the boogyman... one of the oddest performances i've seen from a boxer.

Sorry you can handle being told your wrong. Did mommy pull you off her títs too early?

Calling me fat is pretty generic. You forgot I'm gay and living in my moms basement.

What did we learn today Ryan? We learned that when you're wrong, you shouldn't attack people and project your illnes onto others.
