    I also agree Saunders and Lemuix are C class fighters. 1 flaw B 2 or more C.
    Jacobs is one our 2nd tier fighters here in America...that being said, he is about as good or better than most other countries' very best at MW...

    Just another reason USA is the best in Boxing...our B Team is better than most countries' "A" Teams...

    Maybe a "lil'" harsh on G there, but maybe not too far off...he had a very fleeting prime in the pros and has definitely slipped...he was probably an A- at his best in my opinion...

    I personally can't give Jermall or his brother an A- yet due to their competition mostly...but I think they both have the ability to get there...

    Can you imagine if say, England, had fighters as good and promising as Spence, The Charlos, and Tank Davis?...their country would actually be a serious threat for once at the top level...

      Holy mackerel Jacobs is taking a lot of heat for that fight. He arguably won every round.

        Lemiuex is, a fully fit and motivated Saunders isnt.

          Arias didn't want to fight. It was Arias and Koelling or whoever that messed up the fights this weekend...

            Jacobs does everything an A/A- but his chin is what brings him down to B+

            And having not the greatest chin isnt the end of the world. Plenty of guys went on to the HOFame with suspect chins like Lewis, Klitz, Hearns.

              Yeah maybe but that's hardly his fault..He did everything he had to do other than stop Arias.

                Yeah, he looked good. We see it a lot when one guy ruins a fight. Like Chavez Jr against Canelo, Lemieux against Golovkin or Fox against Andrade. I hate one sided fights.

                  How is Charlo the best when he hasn't fought anyone yet? Never been tested.

                      If a pillow-fisted guy like Sergio Mora can drop you, you are chinny.

                      And WTHell??? Why no talk of SERGEY DEREVYANCHENKO VS. DEMETRIUS ANDRADE on this site??? Should be a pretty easy fight to make. Both are available. Both fight on HBO. Their promotors will work with each other.

                      I heard HBO is working on this fight as Andrade did GREAT numbers his last fight for them. Even out did the main event...
                      I think you replied to the wrong person.
