BJS Ducking Jacobs?

['b']

Actually, it is worse.

He wants 5 million pounds.

And what you wrote about the onus sounds really cool but that is exactly what he did with Lemieux and his purse was only 1 million dollars plus whatever they scrapped up from Canadian PPV and a 10,000 seat arena.

He'd get more fighting Jacobs in Brooklyn, no doubt.

And he is going to have to wait until at least Fall 2018 to get a shot at GGG or Canelo.

The other big money match for BJS, Eubanks Jr., fights in February. He loses, he isn't available til June or July. Jr wins and its the fall for him as well.

Who else can BJS fight in early 2018 that will be as big a fight as Jacobs?

It makes sense why he wants to move up and fight Truax. Weak champion in a higher division where it is a win/win - he beats him and is 2 division champ, he loses and he still gets paid and can go back to MW and face Canelo / GGG

No different from Mayweather ducking Lara who was his mandatory at one point.
Tell me why TBE ducked Lara.
TBE fanboys:
Lara brings no money to the table doe.
Lara is boring to watch doe.
TBE only wants money fights doe.
Kills me with these fanboys.

Actually it is different since Mayweather campaigned mainly at 147.

Nice try doe.

Jacobs is the biggest most lucrative fight BJS can make for the first half of 2018.

You have a name he can make more with that is available, I'd like to hear it.

It's a duck with the hope that he gets Canelo-GGG II winner

I am not sure Truax is the easy pickings they think he is.

And no way that is as big a money fight as Jacobs.

Good take tho in this post and your previous.

Well if he ever wants a chance at a belt at SMW, Truax is his golden ticket.

And yes, Jacobs is the best fight he can make at this time in terms of money AND as a challenge that fans want to see. Sadly boxing is about money first

Saunders isn't ducking Jacobs. The fight would never happen because it's Eddie Hearn VS Frank Warren and they never work together. The requested 5 million is a **** you offer to Hearn to either put up or shut up

LOL. A Jacobs fight is not as lucrative as a Eubank rematch for Saunders in the UK.
This a totl bull from you people.
GGG vs Jacobs made a mere 170K, PPV.
These Brits make more fighting in the UK than in the US.
It's a completely different business model as explained by Hearns.
UK promoters rely more on ticket sales than on PPV.
Why do you think Hearn can offer as much as $4 mil to Beyontay fighting Dylan White when Haymon and Espinoza can't offer similar offers?

I think Truax would be a cherry pick gone wrong.

BJS carrying the extra weight would not be the fast, slick guy we saw last week.

And he certainly wouldn't hit hard enough to keep Truax off.

I'll call it right now.

Truax wins that fight if it happens in Feb or March.

Eubank Jr is not available til he wins or loses the super 6.

Canelo/GGG will fight in May.

Who else makes BJS as much money as Jacobs?
