Comments Thread For: Jacobs Faces $1M Penalty, 3 Pounds Overweight At 2nd Weigh-In

[DuckAdonis]

He'll make 5x's the penalty in the rematch after her beats Canelo tonight

You think he beats nelo?..idk man I sure hope he does.
I think he tried to make the same day weight, but just couldn't. 3lbs+ is not that much to be intentional imo

[OCPancho]

Weaking him in the fight

=

Fight against a man with his same weight in the ring.

Precisely the ibf cancelled that rule because their fighters weighted less than their rivals in order to hold the ibf title too

Like GGG against Jacobs.

Like Canelo against Khan and Floyd ?
LOL

All we know that you are an i.diot that usted México

Thats clear

You literally defend Mexican fighters when they test positive for drugs then blame the soccer team



I understand you're Mexican and proud of your countryman, but you're biased.

It's not bs if a person signs on the dotted line. There was no gun pointed at DJ's head.

Don't like stipulations, don't sign.

I agree. Moreover, there is a small price for him to pay in terms of money because of it. However, Jacobs has his eyes set on the bigger prize and that is defeating Canelo Alvarez for the unified Middleweight championship of the world. Therefore, the trade off is more than worth the fines.

****, I love this. I have become such a huge Jacobs fan thee last few days. He is coming for legacy, to win, lets go!!!!

The best part is that when Boxing Ego reports it, the LDBC will add more buys to the event!

WAR DAZN!

Like GGG against Jacobs.

You are truly a mexican puppet. No brain whatsoever.

When Jacobs fought GGG the IBF rule existed and Jacobs agreed to fight for the IBF belt and everyone thought he would play by the official rules.

Jacobs didnt play by the rules and came in much heavier than GGG, so even if he won he would have not won the IBF belt.

Now these rules do not exist anymore when there are multiple belts on the line, the rule basically got changed because Jacobs abused the rules and was so much bigger than GGG.

Now all that we have is a special A side Diva clause in the contract requested by Canelo and Golden Boy to weaken/drain Jacobs.

The IBF belt is still on the line for Jacobs.

That was a big win for boxing right here, fuck the Divas, fuck the A sides.

[Mammoth]

Exactly.


I'm rooting for Jacobs. I hate Mexi....i mean Canelo

That's awful, man......

A poster mentioned how GBP anticipated DJ blowing the scales. They could have made the penalty 1 mil per lb if they felt weight was an issue.

Trust me, if a promoter is out to get free money and have a good idea that money is assured, they would have made the penalty notable.

The better man will win and it won't be because of weight.

This rehydration clause is such bullchit! Why didn't Clenelo have this clause against Amir Khan? Anyone who is a fan of Clenelo and De La Spatula must be mindless LGBQT drones.
