Comments Thread For: Jacobs vs. Derevyanchenko - Done Deal, To Fight in October

[j.razor]

Jacobs took a big steamy **** on that belt when he came up overweight for GGG fight, and now the cheat is fighting for it SMH.
IBF did GGG dirty.

So he cheated for beating lil g? LOL....You guys sound like #Twinkies with the excuses. lil g did us dirty by lying to us & saying he was elite.

[daggum]

everyone in the division is fighting someone...and then there is charlo. after canelo beats ggg and vacates the belt he will finally have his time to shine on another undercard against a nobody for hte belt. great career plan standing ovation

[j.razor]

Ehh.... Should be Charlo-Jacobs and Dery-Andrade.

lil g Protection Act^
News Flash, Jacobs can't save lil g!

Jermall vs lil g next even when lil g loses to Nelo!

For real. And how is Jacobs going to be able to compete at 160 now that he will have to do the morning weigh in for the IBF? Or will the IBF find some way to let Jacobs skip the same day weigh-in again while still fighting for the belt this time? Wouldnt surprise me.

Stop with the lame excuses just cuz Jacobs beat lil g. You dudes are #Twinkies. Go watch another sport like golf, its more your speed....LMMFAO!

The thing people haven't talked about much is that Canelo had part in costing GGG his title. If that fight went on May 5, as scheduled, the IBF belt would have been on the line so one of them would have it now.

Anyway, wonder if the IBF will require an automatic mandatory, especially since I expect the winner of GGG vs Canelo to take on Saunders. If so, according to the IBF rankings, the winner will have to fight Andrade (if he agrees, which I don't know why he wouldn't) so possibly more good fights ahead.

lil g could of EASILY fought his mandatory. Stop making excuses for a grown man....smh

have you seen charlos resume...ggg fought the top 2 guys while he was waiting for the wbc mandatory. charlo is fighting bums while waiting. ggg built himself into a guy who sold 20k seats before fighting canelo. charlo still fights on undercards. please don't compare them its silly.

And GGG let himself get stripped by fighting Vanes and then not fighting Derevyanchenko like he should have. It's not like it's it's previous owner seemed to give much of a **** about it.

End of the day GGG had two choices to keep the IBF Belt.

Fight Vanes and promise to fight Sergiy next

or

Fight Sergiy and get your mando over with for another year

That is exactly what he should of done.


EVERYTHING was already in place.

Date
Arena
Sergiy's $
GGG's $$

The ONLY reason why the fight didnt happen is because GGG didnt want that work for $1,000,000. He wanted more $$$$ for that work.

GGG CHOSE Vanes for easy work AND easy $$$. His SUCKER fans didnt give 2 shts who he fought. All those 95% bums he already fought tells us this..

His fans would hype up the most homely of bums as some big ass contender

He made a business choice. I don't hate on him for it but that is what he decided to do. He's an adult, no reason for people to make excuses for him. Idk why they do. On the bright side, we get this fight now.

So Jacobs is fighting a guy with 12 fights??? At this juncture of his career? What does Derevyanchenko have to lose in this situation? Not a thing. What does Jacobs have to lose? A few things. Bad move, in my opinion.
