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

[bigjavi973]

call BS all you want to. It isnt even Dibellas call. Derev and Jacobs are both managed by connelly. Even having both sides of the Jacobs-Derev fight, it still almost went to bid before a deal got done..

again ima call bs:

“Sergiy is willing and able to fight Triple-G if the fight with Canelo falls through,” Keith Connolly, Derevyanchenko’s manager, told BoxingScene.com.

now when both manager and promoter are saying the same thing how can you really call anything against it besides what it is?

Team Derev was ready, willing and able to fight ggg on may 5th

[xhiddenx87]

well, his choice was fight Canelo for $35 million plus, or fight Derev for $2 or $3 million.

Unfortunate that it cost him a belt, but still pretty easy to understand.......

Yeah I understand.

But man what a let down when he was striped.

Im just hoping he crushes Canelo and go straight for BJs and the IBF belt.

lil g aint do ***** to Nelo, Jacobs was the 1st to beat lil g & Mall can fight the bum lil g after lil g loses to Nelo again.

GGG can phuck Alvaroid and Charlo in the same night.

... lets' suppose that GGG actually gets the Canelo rematch payday... do you see a 36 yo GGG fighting younger contenders only for "glory" and not for actually big money reward???

If GGG gets Canelo rematch payday, I don't think GGG will fight Charlo. GGG will retire.

Conventional wisdom says that GGG would drop the WBC belt rather than fight Charlo for 3-5 million (they could likely get 30-40k in a Texas football stadium). However, it is the type of fight that I'd want to see as their styles would make for an exciting fight.

Not only you. Most people want it. But unfortunately, it will never happen. After Canelo I see GGG fighting Murata or Saunders. or another Vanes...
