Comments Thread For: GGG Promoter Shakes Head at Jacobs-Derevyanchenko Order

[Eff Pandas]

What does Rozier tell Dervy if he beats Jacobs? Do they kiss and make up?

LOL good f#cking question.

They need some shoulder programming for this one just to tell us how all the random outside the ring/in the gym/relationship sh^t is working before, during & after the fight.

Seems like it could be a simple competition thing that doesn't get anyones panties in a bunch or could be an emotional rollercoaster depending on how one or both guys feel about it all. Definitely don't covet Rozier's position here.

With Canelo out of the mix, Loeffler began discussions with several boxers to replace the Mexican superstar for a voluntary defense.

they could have picked derevyanchenko.... who was willing and ready to fight may 5th anywhere vs ggg....

and they passed on that fight to fight 154 lber out of the ring for 2 years vanes martirosyan

all the while erislandy lara had to prove himself in order to get a fight with ggg but i guess vanes didnt



anyone 154-168 doe
no one wants to fight doe

While I do think that SD/Danny are two of the best contenders they could chosen to fight for a vacant title, I completely agree with Loeffler here. Jacobs disregarded IBF rules and decided not to fight for the IBF when he fought Golovkin, and now gets another shot. That's really funny.

Basically Danny is saying 'I need all the advantages I can get vs. Golovkin, but will be OK vs. Sergiy.

All you guys had to do was accept the fight against Sergiy what was so hard about that. They also let you fight Vanes instead of Sergiy so what's the problem?? Don't cry about it you guys had the opportunity and turned it down case closed.

I'm confused. What did To expect them to do? This is the IBF. They're gonna follow their rules.

And Jacobs didn't break their rules. He chose not to fight for their belt

[ThatDude44]

Doesn't matter. You guys couldve avoided all of this. I for the life of me can't figure out why they Vanes part of the equation at all. That debacle is all on Team GGG.

[Shadoww702]

It is somewhat interesting that the tactic used there didn't drop Jacobs from their rankings, but oh well. It's a good fight regardless.

Yeah, He should of been dropped from their rankings. I would consider this like refusing a drug test (Notbas bad of course) Jacobs specifically went out of his way to avoid their rules.

Worse thing about it is it was GGG being the DIVA and arguing about more $$$ and NOT Sergiy.

[Motorcity Cobra]

Anyway this is a good fight for the division. Others want their shot and GGG is holding the belts hostage fighting junior middleweights & chasing Canelo

Im liking the IBF more and more each day. I used to rate WBC higher but not anymore.
