Comments Thread For: Jacobs Doesn't See Andrade Fight Happening In 'Near Future'

[umop-ap!sdn]

Some of you may not understand this as it is definitely a cultural thing. In the black communities we are raised with a real family vibe and any close friend you have, you call their Mom and Dad 'Uncle and Aunty' the same way you would your blood relatives. Its symbolism that you are "brothers from another mother" and when the bond is that tight you literally look at one another as brothers or cousins even though you are not blood related.

Would any of you climb in the ring and go all out to try and physically harm or KO your brother? Would you try to hurt a man that you are so close to that you call his mom Aunty? Not calling anyone out, im just providing some of you with the perspective of the black community as this is how we are raised. If I call your parents 'Aunt and Uncle so and so' than me and you are considdered family. As soon as Jacobs mentioned that, I got it and understood that they will only fight if and when the stage is so big that they both win (financially) regardless of the outcome.

I got that vibe from the Triple L fans....LOL

Triple g fans are definitely the biggest hypocryte fans on here!

Reminds me of the 90s when Welterweight was stacked Trinidad/Whittaker/Quartey/DLH and everyone was just sitting on their hands waiting for the DLH payday while not fighting each other. None of these guys want to fight each other now, they are just hoping Canelo throws them a bone.

I understand they are like family and all. After all, they were like brothers during their amateur careers. However, given all of that; This is still prizefighting and if there is enough money for them to go around, then they probably wouldn't mind eventually squaring off against each other in a professional ring.

Which one of y'all want that Charlo work? Danny or Boo Boo? You both can't fight Canelo at the same time, so one of y'all please choose! Let's Go!

I think Charlo is easy work for either one. He doesn't have the skills, movement or footwork to do anything with either. I think his level and one-dimensional style will be shown up with either guy.

Hopefully it happens because the more big matches the better but I think Charlo is the weak link at 160 and will continue to fight scrubs.

Hearn going to have Andrade fight nobodies for awhile to built him up on DAZN. That was Hearn's plan all along until they mandated the fight against BJS.

Smart move on Hearn's part. Why rush when you can build these guys up with a few easy title defenses and with the right opponents and marketing MIGHT be able to build the next "star". At least that's what I think he's gonna do. You gotta let this fight marinate 😎

That is Hearn's plan with all the fighters he signed to DAZN. He is making them fight bums to make them look good. Just look at the recent cards and the next one in November. The only good fights that have been made where its a good fight was because they were mandated my the sanctioning bodies. BJS/Andrade and Hooker/Saucedo. Too bad that Hearn's top WW Vargas had a draw.

We'll see! Andrade has already ducked him once! The WBC ordered Charlo vs. GGG, and GGG's promoter (Loeffler) has already said "it ain't gonna happen!" Somebody must MAN UP!

I disagree because he has more skills and attributes than Andrade and has cleaned out his share of the 154 division plus Canelo has never dominated that division he avoided both Charlo twins J-Rock Hurd Lubin and Andrade and too me Jacobs has to get through that Power movement and speed that Charlo has. Andrade is not sound enough to beat Charlo but that fight should happen while Jacobs faces Canelo next
