Comments Thread For: Photos: Daniel Jacobs Ripped and Ready For War With Arias

he could have won the ggg fight if he had more confidence. he was so worried about being ko'd that he never really took many risks. flashy punches here and there that ggg took on the gloves and elbows but never really tried to time ggg with anything big. didnt commit to his jab either. it was a stay away from me jab. was always worrying about what ggg was going or about to do to him. he needs to accept that he can be knocked out again if he wants to really go for it and win.

He was definitely focused on survival first, victory second, and so was Canelo when he fought GGG. Of the 2, Jacobs did better than Canelo and would have been more worthy of a draw if he hadn't got knocked down.

If he'd taken risks and gone for it doe, I think he would almost certainly have got KTFO.

He looks good. Looking forward to the fights this weekend.

He took some flush shots from GGG and wasn't ever completely hurt, so I would say his chin is pretty good at the moment.

British commentators and TV Azteca both had Jacobs winning so they obviously saw a different fight than what you are describing.

I would love Hearn to get a rematch with GGG for Jacobs

jacobs was so happy that he started screaming when he landed one good punch on ggg. even he bought into his own low standards. lets hope he has high standards for himself in this fight. have confidence! you can do it danny!

Cut it out dude, lil g lost two in a row now. No more gggifts for lil g.

DJ lookin ripped. He needs that lil g rematch.

Jacobs should get a Fagnelo fight

Is just me, or does he look lighter now than he was before the GGG fight? Just as ripped, maybe even more so .. but less filled out?

Looks like he has leaner muscle, not as bulky and drained looking
