Comments Thread For: Hearn: Jacobs To Fight Canelo in May If He Beats Derevyanchenko

[JuniorTorres720]

I'm down for a Canelo vs Jacobs showdown. It's solid. I can't see Canelo opting to face GGG in May. With him having won their last bout and picking up two belts he has even more leeway to avoid that fight immediately. It sucks because it would be better to just get it out of the way. But in the interim Canelo vs. Jacobs in May wouldn't be a bad match up.

Jacobs is a great fighter who I thought whipped GGG first.
He SHOULD of fought GGG again but I get not turning down Canelo money.
That said, I’d like to see the young lions with the old. I want to see Charlo deal with adversity in GGG. Win or loose. He’s going to have reach deep and I don’t think his handlers feel comfortable with that.
Love the Idea of Canelo vs Jacobs. I think that’s a tuff fight for Canelo. That’s why I don’t think it will happen.

Jacobs needs to fight punk ass Charlo in that grudge match.

Some reason I do too. Inthink Jacobs will be up on all cards and get ****y and then dropped..

He's got that Loma thing goin on. He takes a few more hits than Loma but you can clearly see the same imprinting from Loma's dad.

Jacobs isn't that good. Don't know what people are seeing. He seems fragile and mostly uncoordinated. He might end up getting KOed by Derevyanchenko.

I know Jacobs has to chase that paper, but I so badly want to see Jacobs vs. Charlo! First things first! Jacobs vs. Derevyanchenko should be a good one!

Well DAZN would want the best/top opponents for Canelo for the remaining 10 fights, Jacob is one of those options, i definitely prefer him to charlo, His body of work is a lot better than charlo.

Fragile mentality yep.

I like Jermall but am not yet sold on him. From what I've seen so far, a style like GGG (come forward brawler) suits him more than someone slick with a lot of movement. Not sure Jermall can deal with much movement.

Well for anyone to beat Canelo they would need to stop him, we knew that before, i dont see Charlo stopping him at this point. Jacobs is quite big for a Middleweight, and he isn't totally war-torn yet, so i fancy his chances than i would with charlo, i just think Jacob deserves that opportunity at this moment in time than charlo (Especially if Jacob beats Dervy for the IBF belt).
