From where he was when he signed with Matchroom and HBO to where he is now it hardly seems like a disaster? He has the IBF championship and apparently interest from PBC, Top Rank etc etc.Comment

thats a key. It’s not just ggg. Loeffler has a dozen other fighters to think about.
If it comes down to money espn and pbc can’t afford to pay GGG what DAZN canComment

Why not just sign with GBP if that's the caseBut he badly wants the Canelo fight and that one looks to be the ideal fight for May of 2019. So I think at least for the time being he will be with DAZN/Hearn. Now, I'm sure Haymon is in his ear telling him I can get GGG to PBC and then you can rematch him or fight Charlo or Hurd or even move up to 168 if you want.
Great time to be a free agent in today's boxing landscape. If GGG signs with DAZN, then no-brainier that's where Jacobs should go.Comment

PBC and ESPN will put him on PPV though. Barbosa mentioned it is a package deal. DAZN could technically easily take on GGG and give Loeffler dates but they don't want to deal with him directly.
We shall see, but definitely sounds like PBC is in the mix now.Comment

actually coppinger clarified that Haymon didn’t directly speak to GGG. And no word of pbc taking the rest of the squad. They are in the mix but in third.Comment

Like hearing Jacobs understand he was high risk, low reward previously. Sometimes I don't think fighters understand that situation & utilize it quite like they should when they are in it. I'd be going from venue to venue for guys I wanted to fight til I was juice worth the squeeze from all the rub I'd be getting off of sh^ttalking mfers at their own events. Think Thurman did good with that strategy back in the day.
But to the point of the thread this should be interesting to watch transpire. Feel like Jacobs isn't gonna get the Canelo fight doe so the world should be open to him soon. Seems like the best options would be Andrade (DAZN) or Charlo (PBC) if he gets passed over & it'd be all about who offers him the best deal.Comment
